4
00:00:08.099 --> 00:00:10.650

7
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:18.660
first some very British things to say to

8
00:00:18.660 --> 00:00:23.420
someone if they look just not gorgeous

9
00:00:23.420 --> 00:00:27.000
okay Americans say this too but they

10
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:28.590
don't say it cool like we do

11
00:00:28.590 --> 00:00:31.439
gorgeous pronunciation say with me

12
00:00:31.439 --> 00:00:36.840

Americans don't use this one yeah fit me

15
00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:47.820
she is well fit she or he is bangin

16
00:00:47.820 --> 00:00:51.559
usually we don't pronounce the G banging

17
00:00:51.559 --> 00:00:54.390
no then it sounds like the verb it's

18
00:00:54.390 --> 00:00:57.360
like the slang verb of saying to have

19
00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:01.440
sex to bang yes so if you say she's

20
00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:06.319
banging people might be confused which

21
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:09.688
banging you mean so with pronunciation

22
00:01:09.688 --> 00:01:13.830
drop the G bang in she's bangin mate did

23
00:01:13.830 --> 00:01:15.979
you see Captain America's ass bangin

24
00:01:15.979 --> 00:01:20.069
again all of these adjectives yes they

25
00:01:20.069 --> 00:01:22.200
mean good-looking but they have this

26
00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:26.970
sexy quality to it so like don't say it

27
00:01:26.970 --> 00:01:28.890
to a family member that would be awkward

28
00:01:28.890 --> 00:01:32.009
when you say this expression something

29
00:01:32.009 --> 00:01:33.360
is on point

30
00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:37.350
this doesn't mean sexy it just means

31
00:01:37.350 --> 00:01:43.560
something is wow that's perfect like

32
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:45.630
this if you want to compliment someone

33
00:01:45.630 --> 00:01:49.470
on a physical thing Wow your hair is on

34
00:01:49.470 --> 00:01:51.479
point today no one's ever said that to

35
00:01:51.479 --> 00:01:54.360
me though this is rude but basically

36
00:01:54.360 --> 00:01:58.140
basically to be on point means this

37
00:01:58.140 --> 00:02:01.049
thing it's exactly right it's exactly

38
00:02:01.049 --> 00:02:04.350
perfect so yes it could be something

39
00:02:04.350 --> 00:02:08.819
physical but remember it means this it's

40
00:02:08.819 --> 00:02:14.239
exactly right so it could be

41
00:02:14.269 --> 00:02:18.060
if you want to say your argument is

42
00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:18.690
perfect

43
00:02:18.690 --> 00:02:23.389
yes I agree totally you are on point

44
00:02:23.389 --> 00:02:26.099
when someone is eye candy

45
00:02:26.099 --> 00:02:30.510
this means literally they are candy for

46
00:02:30.510 --> 00:02:33.540
your eyes so when you look at them you

47
00:02:33.540 --> 00:02:36.629
have that same pleasure just from

48
00:02:36.629 --> 00:02:38.370
looking at them you look at their big

49
00:02:38.370 --> 00:02:42.120
dumb head because the big dumb face is

50
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:43.319
just so pretty

51
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:47.579
for example Maria hired Brad for a job

52
00:02:47.579 --> 00:02:51.599
Brad is rubbish at the job but why did

53
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.590
she hire him because he's good eye candy

54
00:02:54.590 --> 00:02:57.750
she wants something nice to look at in

55
00:02:57.750 --> 00:03:02.040
the working day sure he's dumb he can't

56
00:03:02.040 --> 00:03:04.410
do the job properly and he always loses

57
00:03:04.410 --> 00:03:07.769
us money but he's good eye candy so he

58
00:03:07.769 --> 00:03:13.410
stays just so you know all of these

59
00:03:13.410 --> 00:03:16.230

so attractive they make you look good

64
00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:37.440
this is what we call arm candy so it has

65
00:03:37.440 --> 00:03:40.290
a positive effect on you because they

66
00:03:40.290 --> 00:03:44.609
are on your arm for example if you have

67
00:03:44.609 --> 00:03:47.160
an event you might want to invite

68
00:03:47.160 --> 00:03:50.069

head-turner or as a verb to turn heads

72
00:04:01.230 --> 00:04:04.940
that's this situation

73
00:04:07.220 --> 00:04:10.670
this one is very literal you're walking

74
00:04:10.670 --> 00:04:12.440

75
00:04:12.440 --> 00:04:15.459

very very common but you will definitely

85
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:44.690
hear it especially like for example for

86
00:04:44.690 --> 00:04:47.180
example in the Oscars people might say

88
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.820

will be like were literally mmm but of

91
00:05:02.029 --> 00:05:05.390
course if you turn your head to look at

92
00:05:05.390 --> 00:05:07.820
someone maybe it's for a good reason

93
00:05:07.820 --> 00:05:12.140
maybe it's for a bad reason so it might

94
00:05:12.140 --> 00:05:14.960
you know it's not always good for

95
00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:18.680
example if you went on a date with your

96
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:22.669
cousin people might say you're dating

97
00:05:22.669 --> 00:05:27.080
your cousin I mean that's gonna turn

98
00:05:27.080 --> 00:05:31.160
some heads you know when you're at a bar

99
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:35.330
a club cafe library wherever and you see

100
00:05:35.330 --> 00:05:38.089
someone across the room and you think oh

101
00:05:38.089 --> 00:05:41.180
my god you're so fit but then she's

102
00:05:41.180 --> 00:05:43.400
looking back at you right into your eyes

103
00:05:43.400 --> 00:05:46.250
into your soul intensely passionately

104
00:05:46.250 --> 00:05:48.740
and both of you know this has to be

105
00:05:48.740 --> 00:05:50.570
loved because she's looking deep into my

106
00:05:50.570 --> 00:05:53.720
soul I mean I imagine that's what it's

107
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:56.360
like but anyway when you're looking at

108
00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:00.440
each other and it's like that situation

109
00:06:00.440 --> 00:06:03.220
we call that

110
00:06:03.220 --> 00:06:07.960
to make eyes at someone in this case

111
00:06:07.960 --> 00:06:10.510
both of them it's mutual they're looking

112
00:06:10.510 --> 00:06:14.050
at each other so they are let's make a

113
00:06:14.050 --> 00:06:17.589
sentence they're making eyes at each

114
00:06:17.589 --> 00:06:19.360
other maybe they should go and talk to

115
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:26.170
each other we also say to give someone

116
00:06:26.170 --> 00:06:30.790
the eye for example that guy that guy's

117
00:06:30.790 --> 00:06:32.589
giving you the eye you should go talk to

118
00:06:32.589 --> 00:06:36.490
him our next adjective flawless this is

119
00:06:36.490 --> 00:06:39.370
a great word to use and a Beyonce song

120
00:06:39.370 --> 00:06:44.290
so two reasons to use it okay for

121
00:06:44.290 --> 00:06:47.380
example if I draw something and there's

122
00:06:47.380 --> 00:06:50.230
a mistake right there ah it's a mistake

123
00:06:50.230 --> 00:06:55.300
it's not perfect something which makes

124
00:06:55.300 --> 00:06:59.110
this not perfect is called a floor

125
00:06:59.110 --> 00:07:01.240
that's a noun a floor

126
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:04.830
pronunciation floor you can use this for

127
00:07:04.830 --> 00:07:08.440
a project that you're working on hmm

128
00:07:08.440 --> 00:07:11.650
does this project have any flaws what

129
00:07:11.650 --> 00:07:16.210
makes this thing not perfect but if I

130
00:07:16.210 --> 00:07:22.120
remove that imperfection there BAM now

131
00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:26.640
it's perfect no imperfections no flaws

132
00:07:26.640 --> 00:07:32.320
it is flawless so if you say someone

133
00:07:32.320 --> 00:07:35.770
looks flawless or they are flawless

134
00:07:35.770 --> 00:07:39.070
wow you are flawless you're saying

135
00:07:39.070 --> 00:07:41.590
they're perfect everything about them is

136
00:07:41.590 --> 00:07:45.090
perfect nothing wrong no imperfections

137
00:07:45.090 --> 00:07:47.890
just like you just like your face now

138
00:07:47.890 --> 00:07:51.160
these next two expressions describe when

139
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:58.030
you make an effort to look good when

140
00:07:58.030 --> 00:08:00.940
someone puts a lot of effort into their

141
00:08:00.940 --> 00:08:03.280
appearance they do their makeup the hair

142
00:08:03.280 --> 00:08:06.600
clothes whatever

143
00:08:08.050 --> 00:08:11.889
we say that that person is done up now

144
00:08:11.889 --> 00:08:14.409
this is a really useful phrasal verb to

145
00:08:14.409 --> 00:08:18.220
do something up or to do up something it

146
00:08:18.220 --> 00:08:22.330
means to renovate to make something look

147
00:08:22.330 --> 00:08:25.750
better to improve the appearance of

148
00:08:25.750 --> 00:08:29.740
something in this case she did herself

149
00:08:29.740 --> 00:08:34.539
up and she might just say wow look at

150
00:08:34.539 --> 00:08:37.260
you all done up gorgeous see again

151
00:08:37.260 --> 00:08:39.550
British sounds better than American

152
00:08:39.550 --> 00:08:43.059
another example might be you are going

153
00:08:43.059 --> 00:08:46.570
to a party you need time to make an

154
00:08:46.570 --> 00:08:49.179
effort on your appearance so you might

155
00:08:49.179 --> 00:08:52.300
say are you ready we have to leave no no

156
00:08:52.300 --> 00:08:56.470
no no no give me 20 minutes I need to do

157
00:08:56.470 --> 00:08:59.410
my self up you're making an effort with

158
00:08:59.410 --> 00:09:01.000
your appearance could be your hair

159
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:05.529
makeup face but everything how would you

160
00:09:05.529 --> 00:09:09.990
do up a but maybe you can't do up a butt

161
00:09:09.990 --> 00:09:13.870
so when you say that someone looks done

162
00:09:13.870 --> 00:09:16.779
up you are acknowledging that they made

163
00:09:16.779 --> 00:09:19.450
an effort on their appearance and the

164
00:09:19.450 --> 00:09:21.700
last two expressions they kind of go

165
00:09:21.700 --> 00:09:25.660
together if you want to compliment

166
00:09:25.660 --> 00:09:29.890
people on how well they're dressed maybe

167
00:09:29.890 --> 00:09:32.529
they look fancy like here then wearing a

168
00:09:32.529 --> 00:09:35.350
really nice suit or a really nice dress

169
00:09:35.350 --> 00:09:40.570
you can say these things to be decked

170
00:09:40.570 --> 00:09:43.480
out well look at you two all decked out

171
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.208
you're wearing fancy clothes so this

172
00:09:46.208 --> 00:09:52.948
applies to fancy nice clothes in general

173
00:09:53.040 --> 00:09:56.920
so you need that verb be to be decked

174
00:09:56.920 --> 00:10:00.809
out to be suited and booted

175
00:10:00.809 --> 00:10:03.660
pronunciation very important here not

176
00:10:03.660 --> 00:10:09.220
sweeted no su suited suited and booted

177
00:10:09.220 --> 00:10:13.089
see it rhymes suited and booted which

178
00:10:13.089 --> 00:10:15.730
one is suited and booted it's this guy

179
00:10:15.730 --> 00:10:18.820
why because literally he's wearing a

180
00:10:18.820 --> 00:10:20.160
suit

181
00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:24.779
maybe boots as well but that's not

182
00:10:24.779 --> 00:10:27.629
important if someone is wearing a suit

183
00:10:27.629 --> 00:10:30.360
and they look nice they are suited and

184
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:33.059
booted when was the last time that you
