Apparently lots of people learn the phrase "it's raining cats and dogs" from English textbooks. If you say this, English speakers will understand what you mean, but they never really say it themselves - it sounds quite weird. I'm not sure why this is taught so often - something like "it's chucking it down" is better - it's quite a common, informal way of saying it's raining heavily in the UK (I'm not sure about the US)
I wanted to teach you guys a cool English phrase! It's pretty common but I rarely hear English learners say it.It's "like watching paint dry". Basically, it's a humorous way of saying something is really boring."What do you think of American football?""It's almost as good as watching paint dry." (he thinks American football is boring)Удачи! 頑張って!In bocca al lupo!
