6
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:13.620
episode we're going to talk about the

7
00:00:13.620 --> 00:00:17.660
verb err let's get started

8
00:00:19.020 --> 00:00:21.539
let's begin with a basic definition of

9
00:00:21.539 --> 00:00:24.660
the verb err the basic definition is to

10
00:00:24.660 --> 00:00:29.699
broadcast on radio or TV some examples

11
00:00:29.699 --> 00:00:32.460
when is this episode going to air

12
00:00:32.460 --> 00:00:36.000
this radio show airs every week

13
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:37.680
now let's take a look at the

14
00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:40.020
conjugations for each verb

15
00:00:40.020 --> 00:00:43.320
present air heirs

16
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:45.659
past aired

17
00:00:45.659 --> 00:00:51.919
past participle aired Progressive airing

18
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.600
so now let's talk about some additional

19
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:56.340
meanings for this verb the first

20
00:00:56.340 --> 00:00:59.039
additional meaning of the verb ER is to

21
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:01.940
express opinions this is often though

22
00:01:01.940 --> 00:01:06.119
complaints or problems some examples

23
00:01:06.119 --> 00:01:08.400
they aired their grievances at the

24
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:09.780
meeting

25
00:01:09.780 --> 00:01:12.360
please air any issues with this policy

26
00:01:12.360 --> 00:01:14.280
at the next conference

27
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.819
so in these example sentences we see air

28
00:01:17.819 --> 00:01:20.520
used to talk about expressing something

29
00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:23.580
expressing an opinion but as I said this

30
00:01:23.580 --> 00:01:25.619
is typically some kind of problem

31
00:01:25.619 --> 00:01:28.200
there's an issue there's something that

32
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.080
people want to complain about so when we

33
00:01:31.080 --> 00:01:33.780
air a grievance as in the first example

34
00:01:33.780 --> 00:01:36.659
sentence it means Express a complaint

35
00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:39.240
really or say a complaint make a

36
00:01:39.240 --> 00:01:41.640
complaint but to air a grievance sounds

37
00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:43.979
quite formal so a grievances like

38
00:01:43.979 --> 00:01:45.959
something you are grieving in other

39
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:48.000
words something that makes you unhappy

40
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.820
but it's a noun a grievance so to err a

41
00:01:50.820 --> 00:01:52.799
grievance means to express a complaint

42
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:55.500
to talk about a problem that you have

43
00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:58.500
in the second example sentence where the

44
00:01:58.500 --> 00:02:01.079
expression air any issues you have with

45
00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:03.780
the policy it means again to complain

46
00:02:03.780 --> 00:02:06.719
about a policy or to share your opinions

47
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.780
about this policy to share any maybe

48
00:02:09.780 --> 00:02:12.780
problems you have about the policy so to

49
00:02:12.780 --> 00:02:15.840
err means to express an opinion the

50
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:18.060
second additional meaning is to expose

51
00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:21.360
to air for ventilation we often use out

52
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:23.280
with this meaning let's take a look at

53
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.620
some examples he aired his laundry

54
00:02:25.620 --> 00:02:27.360
outside

55
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:30.120
we're airing out the bedding today

56
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:32.459
so in the first example sentence he

57
00:02:32.459 --> 00:02:35.520
aired his laundry outside we see that he

58
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:39.720
is exposing his clothes probably to air

59
00:02:39.720 --> 00:02:42.180
outside somewhere so that means like

60
00:02:42.180 --> 00:02:45.120
hanging up clothes so that air can flow

61
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.580
through them air as a noun here that

62
00:02:47.580 --> 00:02:50.160
means that the um like breeze or

63
00:02:50.160 --> 00:02:52.260
sunlight or whatever makes the clothes

64
00:02:52.260 --> 00:02:55.620
feel fresh hopefully so to air laundry

65
00:02:55.620 --> 00:02:58.919
refers to letting laundry be exposed to

66
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.440
like sunlight to the outdoors in the

67
00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:03.720
second example sentence we're airing out

68
00:03:03.720 --> 00:03:06.000
the bedding today it means the same

69
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:08.160
thing it means our bedding so bedding

70
00:03:08.160 --> 00:03:11.940
refers to like sheets or like covers or

71
00:03:11.940 --> 00:03:14.879
pillowcases for example to air out

72
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.940
bedding means to expose that to sunlight

73
00:03:17.940 --> 00:03:20.639
to air to the breeze so that it becomes

74
00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:24.120
more Fresh So to air out is sometimes

75
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:27.180
used or we might just see air to air or

76
00:03:27.180 --> 00:03:29.519
something as well it means to expose it

77
00:03:29.519 --> 00:03:32.760
to fresh air to expose it to the Sun as

78
00:03:32.760 --> 00:03:34.739
well this is definitely a short episode

79
00:03:34.739 --> 00:03:36.599
but I think it's important to keep in

80
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.480
mind that air actually as a verb has

81
00:03:39.480 --> 00:03:40.980
some very interesting and quite

82
00:03:40.980 --> 00:03:43.080
different meanings so keep an eye out

83
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:44.940
for it the next time you see it used as

84
00:03:44.940 --> 00:03:47.159
a verb in a sentence I hope that you

85
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:49.560
found something new anyway if you have

86
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:51.360
