I loved this English teacher, he is one of the five one who get me feel really interested in practising my listening skills through watching video lessons on this internet platform.
I love to hear you say I am between jobs. This is absolutely amazing euphemism I have ever heard. I am really admired and sending you a massive thank you. Wess. I love you without border. Your student Mohamed Omar( Shah Ali ) Have fantastic life with your loved ones.
Hello from India. I wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed before watching your lessons. Thanks to you, now I am able to comprehend and grasp most of the things that I listen to. I owe you a million thanks. Keep posting wonderful lessons like you always do.
Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge with us. I am an English teacher here in Brazil and I could learn some of them I didn't know. Whenever I learn something new I immediately share with my students.
The one thing I hope for - _before I kick the bucket_ - is to hear from you. Write to me in the comments. ✍ And if you'd like to email with us and join our community, click the link: subscribe.interactiveenglishvideos.com/ 👍
Powder my nose can also mean they want to touch up their lipstick and make-up after they eat. Many people have been taught it is rude to do that at the table.
This was a f a n t a s t i c lesson, Wes... absolutely made my day!🌹 I was laughing out so loud, that my husband got curious, what I was doing (happens not too often). I love, love, love the English language for its euphemisms, they make conversation so much easier! Btw. your "make love" statement is really captivating... 😉 P.S. Please more of this kind. 🙏 P.P.S. I have to powder my nose now. 😊
Thanks for this handful expressions - you choose a pretty private area but we need to learn everythig. Thanks for emphasizing that "he is not the sharpest tool in the shed" also can be used on the opposite way to describe a smart person if we leave "not" out.
Good afternoon sir , before you kick the bucket I want to say you are the sharpest tool in the shed in terms of presentation . an other way to say I want to go to the toilet is (( I'm going to answer the call of nature .)). the way you convey the info is so attractive. From Algeria thank you a bunch.
First time I access one of your videos; this one has been very well achieved, but the most outstanding feature for me has been your pronunciation quality and the associated phrasing that do not generate the repeated antibodies produced by those who, when speaking, do so without the fundamental intention of being clearly understood by the audience.
Wes, that last line at the end was lit specially the part where you youre taking your love handles with you. Im having a huuuuge smile. Thank yor for such fun lesson it's truly a masterpiece)
You are the Best Wes! Thank you very much for all hard works and meticulous video lessons! (not to mention, you taught me what METICULOUS means). I just used some the Euphemisms in a short story. Please check out. We had to let X go, he has not been productive for almost two months; we had no other choice, but to fire him. We will not lose anything; he is not the sharpest tool in the shed, and he has never got into the swing of things. X’s behavior has gradually changed after his dad passed away and it resulted to become a big-boned guy and having larger love handles. Prior to his dad’s death, his mom kicked the bucket while she allegedly had been making love in the elevator. Don’t be surprised, it’s possible dude😊 According to some unknown resources, X’s parent had have lunch in a restaurant, where his mom makes an excuse to powder her nose, but later it discovers that she just made phony excuse to see the guy in the elevator.
Awesome explanations, especially giving that movie examples. Please, teach us more often with a context. It makes it so easier to learn and imprint the meaning. Great video once again. Thank you!
As far as I remember "to have to see a man about a horse/a dog" means that you simply wants/have to leave the room or smrth like this. You could be bored or you r not intrested in it. And you just want to go away from a party/concert/smb's speech. Not necessarily "toilet". Correct me if I'm wrong.
@@jon_patterson , that's not really a euphemism. It's the opposite because once you figure it out, it evokes ... imagery. I think it's a way of pretending to use a euphemism in order to intentionally be crude for amusement.
Thank you , it is a really great lesson. It is what I see that you Have made efforts to make this lesson with many useful video clips .Thank you so much again.
It's really good to see you back. All of the euphemisms were useful. I wasn't aware that "Kick the Bucket" is an informal expression. I was using it in formal context. But, now, because of you sir, I've got it. Many thanks, Krishna.
☺️ About bathroom everything we say sound embarrassing anyway. In my country we usually say: I need to go to the restroom. It’s enough, it is not necessary to give detail about what to do there.

Mind you, you would not usually say that someone _is_ "the sharpest tool in the shed" - that expression is most often, if not always, used in the negative.

Another great and funny euphemism about going to the bathroom is “I have to see a man about a horse”.😂

“Drop the kids off at the pool.” 🤣

Or spend a penny.
@@jon_patterson , that's not really a euphemism. It's the opposite because once you figure it out, it evokes ... imagery. I think it's a way of pretending to use a euphemism in order to intentionally be crude for amusement.

It's definitely the best way to memorize the lesson
