Upper body expressions

Learn English (American) vocabulary with interactive flashcards

These flashcards help you build vocabulary for upper body expressions by connecting words to what you can see and hear. Studying this way makes tricky the British English match easier to remember because your brain links the label to a clear visual cue. With each review, you can strengthen recognition and feel more confident using the words in everyday situations, where people often communicate with their whole upper body, not just their mouths. You can practise common interaction verbs like shrug, wave, and point, which show up in real conversations all the time. Seeing these as quick, focused cards helps you notice how the British English word shifts with the way people move. Over time, that makes it easier to recall the right word when you are listening and watching. Each card shows a word with an image and an audio clip, so you can match form with pronunciation as you go. You can choose what appears first and adjust whether you want the word, image, or audio to be on or off to suit your learning style. The flashcards contain both American English and British English, so you can compare and stay consistent as you practise.
