Aquí os dejamos un nuevo post de Jennifer, feliz miércoles!!!
I hope everyone has had a great week and had the opportunity to practice some English, as well! 
This week I have a new idiomatic expression and phrasal verb for you all to incorporate into your daily English conversations.
 
Idiomatic expression of the week
to have your heart set on something
Definition: to really want something
“David had his heart set on a new Ferrari and was disappointed when he did not receive one for Valentine’s Day.”
“Currently I have my heart set on traveling the world this summer.”
Phrasal verb of the week
to turn down
Definition: to decrease the volume of noise; to reject
“Can you please turn down the music? I cannot focus on studying.”
“Last week I turned down an invitation to a movie because I already had plans.”

As a reminder, February´s Topic of the Month is “Daily Life Situations and Problems”. Last week I reviewed many ways to interact in a restaurant atmosphere. This week I will introduce some useful phrases for when you’re traveling…it could be in England, the USA, Ireland, or anywhere in the world!
