Random Phrases and Idioms

Welcome to the Random Phrase and Idiom Generator. There will be times when you may need
more than a random word for what you want to accomplish, and this free online tool can help. The
use of this tool is quite simple. All you need to do is indicate the number of random phrases you'd
like to be displayed, and then hit the "Generate Random Phrases" button. Once done, your chosen
number of idioms will be displayed along with the meaning of the idiom.

Idioms are a wonderful part of the English language that give it a lot of flavor. They force people to
know more than the literal meaning of words. Idioms are commonly used phrases which have a
meaning completely different than their literal meaning. This can be quite confusing to those who
aren't familiar with the idiom and those who are studying English.

Using this tool can be excellent practice for students studying English as a second language
because it gives the literal meaning of each phrase. This allows them to see the phrase and its
meaning at the same time. While there are long idiom lists available online, trying to navigate
through them all on a single page can be daunting. Being able to create the exact number of random
idioms which best suits your learning needs is a advantage this tool has over standard phrase list. In
this way, this tool provides an excellent way for those learning English to practice their knowledge of
English idioms and to learn new ones in the process.

It can also be a wonderful way for writers to brainstorm and spur more creativity in their writing. The
tool can be used to get writing ideas flowing forcing the writer to use more creativity than they would
with a single random word. For example, the writer can use the generated phrase to create a new
paragraph or story. Since the writer has no idea what will appear, or even if they will be familiar with
the idiom, it forces the writer to use creativity to incorporate it into what they're writing.

Some people may want to use this tool much like they do a new random daily word. Each day you
generate a random idiom and the goal is to use it in a conversation at some point during the day.
This can be a bit more difficult that using a daily random word, but the benefit is this challenge can
greatly expand the vocabulary and the understanding of idioms. It's an especially useful challenge
for those learning English.
The above are a few of ways the Random Phrase Generator can be used. However you decide to
use this tool, it's always our goal to make the tools we create as useful as possible for those who use
them. If you have ideas on how we could make this tool more beneficial to all who use it, please
contact us with your idea(s). We'd love to hear them.
