    TRANSCRIPT
    Hello. My name is Emma. And in today's video, we are going to do some shit talking. What's that? We are going to shit talk with Emma today. Okay? So I'm going to teach you 10 expressions with the word: "shit". Before we start, what is "shit"? Does anyone know? I've drawn a little picture in this corner. Shit is... I have a brown marker so it's-I don't know if you can see that-it's this colour. It's what you do in a toilet. We'll leave that... I think that's enough to tell you. You shit in a toilet.
    So with these expressions, they're all very common expressions. They're not expressions you want to use with your boss, they're not expressions you want to use with your grandma or your grandpa. They're expressions you will use with your friends, they're expressions you will listen to in movies, on TV. So my main point: don't use these at work, don't use these with your family. Okay?
    So let's get started. Oh, sorry, one other thing: pronunciation. Students often mispronounce the word: "shit". They say: "sheet", "sheet". You see? They smile when they say it. Shit is not something you smile about. So when you say the word: "shit", don't smile. Okay? Your mouth goes down, "shit". So repeat one time, make sure you're not in a room filled with people. Okay, let's say this word together. One, two, three, "shit". Okay. Good. So now let's look at some expressions.
    My first expression today is one of my favorites. "Shitty", "shitty". Okay? So you can say that once: "shitty". When we say it, the "ty" almost becomes like a "dy" sound, and "shit" is longer and louder. "Shitty", "shitty". What does it mean? When something is "shitty", it's bad, it's a synonym of bad. So, for example: "Today I had a shitty day." Meaning: today I had a bad day. Okay? You can ask someone: -"How was work today?" -"Oh, work was shitty. I had a really shitty experience at work." Okay? -"How did your test go?" -"Uhh, it went shitty. It was a shitty test. I didn't do well." Okay? So it's an adjective.
    Our second expression: "shit-faced". Now, important how you pronounce the "ed", it's like a "t" in this case. Okay? So we don't say: "shit-faced", no, no, no. "Shit-faced", okay, "shit-faced". What does it mean to be shit-faced? "Shit-faced" means very, very, drunk. Okay? If you ever go to the bar, you drink one beer, you drink two beer, you drink eight beers, you will probably get shit-faced. So it means very drunk. Here's our example sentence: "He had eight beers. He's shit-faced." Okay? We don't say: "He has a shit face." That would sound very bad if you said that to someone. We don't say: "He has a shit-faced." He... The "s" stands for: "He is shit-faced." Okay?
    Let's look at our third expression: "shitbox". A "shitbox" is a car. Okay? It's a car... Can you guess? Do you think it's a good car or a bad car? If you said: "Bad car", you are correct. A "shitbox" is a very bad car; it's very slow, very ugly, maybe the wheel is falling off. Okay? It looks like it is going to fall apart at any moment. It's usually a very cheap car. So maybe you're on the street and you see your friend and he's driving a shitbox. You can say to your friend: "Look at the car. What a shitbox!" All right.
    Similarly, so "shitbox" is car, a "shithole" is a way to describe a place someone lives. Okay? So if your friend lives in an apartment and the apartment is very ugly, and small, and dirty, and there's not a lot of light, maybe there's no windows, it's a really sad apartment - you can call it a "shithole". So I have a friend, "Her apartment is a shithole. It's dirty, and"-eww-"there are cockroaches." Cockroaches, do you know what a cockroach is? It's one of those insects that lives in people's apartments, they're really disgusting. So it's a type of bug. If you have cockroaches in your apartment, you might... May be living in a shithole.

    @Anna_Stetik 9 років тому +14

    In her first lesson, "shitty", she states it means "bad". In a sense, yes, it does, but you don't use the word "shitty" just to express that you had a bad day, you use the word "shitty" when your day was worse than bad. Don't take the slang to mean you use it at every opportunity, it has to be more than bad, it has to be one of those days that you wish you could go home and crawl back under the covers...THAT is a shitty day.

    Could you make a video about English punctuation? In general my English is ok, I'd say, but the punctuation remains something I know very little about :(

    • @VenicioSales
      @VenicioSales 10 років тому +1

      You told something interesting 'cause many of teacher almost don't talk to this over the Internet when they are teaching English. She could talk about this for sure.

    Me pregunto porque las personas critican tanto en ves de agradecer que nos enseñen tambien las frases informales que de hecho son muy buenas,y aunque no sean educativas estan dentro del argot popular de la cultura americana,y que si no las aprendemos no vamos a entender nunca el idioma ingles,usted como persona dediquese a retener lo bueno y desechar lo malo,pero estando cociente que cuando le dicen una mala palabra aunque usted no la diga
    saben lo que le estan diciendo.
    A usted profesora le doy las gracias y la exorto a que siga enseñando lo bueno y lo malo,cada cual que que retenga lo que quiera.....siga asi...exelente clase

    Never hold your fart in. They travel up your spine, into your brain and that's where shitty ideas come from. LOL

    • @androidkenobi
      @androidkenobi 7 років тому +3

      it is not a "shit expression." Fart is different from shit. Fart is gas. I'm sure you can look it up. To hold it in means to not allow yourself to pass gas. This is the funniest thing I read here because nothing really happens if you hold in your gas. Definitely nothing bad will happen. However, if you use your imagination, you can see the gas bubble move from your butt to your brain! hahaha! "Shitty ideas" is an expression for really bad or stupid ideas. The connection of shitty idea with a fart is that shit is also poop, which like a fart, starts near your butt. And we already imagined it moved to the brain! BWAAHAHAHA!!! Deep, where did u get that, i love it!!

    What can I say about this class? Very useful in everyday's life. I think that's a must-know vocabulary for all students, especially those who are planning to spend some time out in an English-speaking country. Congratulations for bringing us relevant information! And thanks for teaching us real English! Many teachers don't feel comfortable to talk about this with their students. And that's such a pity, in my opinion. Because I think this is an important subject.

  • @2RBTheKnoT
