Key learning points
- Using a range of impersonal verbs to your writing and speaking adds variety and complexity.

Keywords
Impersonal verb - a verb that doesn’t refer to a particular person or thing, and whose subject is most often ‘il’ (it)
Idiom - a saying which does not always have a literal meaning and which does not always translate directly into another language
Common misconception
Idioms are the same in different languages.
Idioms can be specific to a language, culture or group of people. They are often impossible to translate directly. Their use adds variety and authenticity to students' work but it is necessary to discuss the idiom carefully when it is taught.
