I learnt a bunch of new words thanks to you!
Which was your favourite?
@@papateachme Definitely, "suss" and how a slight difference in spelling (sus) can make a huge difference. I also enjoyed discovering the old-fashioned meaning of "knackered" ;).
We've been using "to schlep" for ages in Serbian. It's used for "towing", as in "towing service" and I don't think we've got our own word for that. 🤣 And yes, it comes from German
Wowwww!!! I love that word!! So you use it the same way then?
@@papateachme yup. If you say to schlep, everyone will know what you're referring to
@aleksandarranelovic5577 nice! So I also speak Serbian then! 🙌
We use the verb in Swiss German as well. An older and quite heavy laptop is often referred to as a "schlepptop".
How to use that word ? Gimme some examples
In Norwegian, we have the verb "å slepe" which means to drag something, like luggage, for example. And just like the English word came about, our variant was also borrowed from German so I instantly recognized it when it appeared in the video.
Nice and useful. Thank u ,Aly❤️
"Sus" is just shortening for "suspicious".
Yes, i have. When i'm tired and i don't want to study or to go to School, i do that.
I'm Canadian the only way I've ever heard "schlep" being used is to describe feeling lazy and just schlepping around. "I'm just schlepping around the house in my bathrobe today." Maybe it's used because it describes us dragging our deadweight selves around... 😂
I've never heard of skive or bung! LOL
i've just skived thru this video, gonna lug it now till the end of my life )
always thought holler was something british because of the song by spice girl "I wanna make you holler, holler and hear you scream my name...."
I’ve never heard of skive 😅😅😅 but that’s not to say it’s not used in Australia. Wag is a common one, as in to wag school means to skip school 😝
You say WAG!? 😁 I prefer wag. I’m gonna steal it. I’m British. We steal things. 🧐🤨
@@papateachme
First time I come across this video ! Es muy bueno !👏👏👏👏👏🇦🇷🇬🇧🇦🇷🇬🇧
It’s new ! ✌️😁
You can upload a video on ipa symbol pronunciation
Thanks for this useful lesson, Aly. Looks like the noun "luggage" went from the verb "to lug", didn't it?
At least my guess should be partly correct 😉
Oooh!! Could be!!
@@papateachme By the way - great topic for one of the future live lessons - the origin of some words from other, older or foreign 🙂
I've never skived off English lessons at school :)
In Germany we say *schleppen" to schlep something in german is "etwas zu schleppen"
Sounds so cool in German
I'm Japanese,have learning English. I found this movie and enjoyed it today! I try to write this comment. I decided to learn English from your movies now.
Welcome to my channel! I hope you enjoy studying here! 🤟😁 🇯🇵
That was amazing 😮❤
In bruh-zeelean porch-geese "Veneno" is also "Veneno" and "Peligro" is "Perigo" XD
I haven't skived off school or any working😅
Hi Aly. Sometimes, I use toss with the same meaning as bung as you have described. Is it a mistake or is it appropriate?
Yeah for sure but “toss” feels like it has more distance to the throw
I skive off school with the guys to play pool. Is it ok? Or I shoud said the guys and I used to skive off schooll
"To skive" sounds pretty similar to italian "schivare", which is roughly equivalent to "to dodge"
Hello 🇮🇹
Oh, Esquivar !!! 🇪🇦
It's funny, there is a nice word in Russian "schlepki" ( slippers), too.
What about New Zealand?
I don't understand elevator.😋
schleppen ist a German verb that means to carry somethin heavy a long way
I used to skive off work smoking doobies with my homies....nah, i don't have homies i was alone smoking my face off
👍
❤❤
✅
I have been skiveing to learn English
I'm going to be really careful in how I phrase this. I've never seen the word "bung" used as a verb. However, there's an American word referring to a body part that starts with "bung." Please tell me that the two are unrelated, because I have a few follow-up questions if they are.
Indubitably I'll never say Holler 😂😂
Is "sus" contraction from suspetious?
Suspicious! And yes! ✌️
🥰💫💥💯💣👍
For me you is the best
Hi im from iraq
sussy baka
Omg, Do you know Yiddish??🤣🤣
Oh my goodness, 😍 you're regarded as our English God which means that we the Africans gonna be praying to you as our English savior
Because of your prime minister you'll speak Indian soon 😂
For what should anybody learn the British English if the whole world speak the American one?
Haha Americans are what?
Skive off = playing hooky. USA only. Don't ask me why! Also, I have only heard it used for skipping a day or days of school.
