(PRLeap.com) "Book of North American Idioms", a new book by Joanna Libertad Arroyo, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.Northern California native Joanna Libertad Arroyo grew up in the culturally rich San Francisco Bay Area, where she was surrounded by a vibrant mix of expressions from friends, family, and teachers. These idioms, colorful, colloquial phrases woven into everyday conversations, left a lasting impression and eventually inspired her newest work, the "Book of North American Idioms".
Arroyo believes that informal language plays a meaningful role in shaping how people connect and communicate. Idioms can influence how we perceive our world and how we relate to one another. Her book was created to help both native and non-native English speakers understand the importance of idiomatic expressions in everyday speech. By bridging differences in language comprehension and skill level, idioms serve as a shared cultural touchstone across North America. Many of these expressions, she notes, are born from the diverse cultures and regions that make up the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
