All right, so let's get into this lesson with seven of the most common expressions in English to be sick of something not able to tolerate something anymore. Example. I'm sick of corrupt politicians. You should be with a guy who knows what he has when he has you for us. What? So sick of guys? I don't want to look at a guy I don't want to think about another guy I don't even want to be near another. I cannot be a waitress anymore. I mean it. I'm sick of the lousy tips. Sick of being called. Excuse me. So Phoebe tells us you write jingles. Yeah, but I don't do that anymore. I got kind of sick of it, and then I couldn't come up with anything good, so they fired me. Bummer. Another common core location with the same meaning is to be sick and tired of something. For example, I'm sick and tired of studying of grammar people sick and tired of being depressed about Richard. I need a plan Plan to get over my man. What's the opposite of man Jam? Of course. Literally sick means ill or affected with the disease or illness. And to get sick means to become sick. I I'm afraid I have some bad news. Marcel has passed on, only God. What? Well, he got sick, and then he got sicker, and then he got a little better. But then he died. Believe this. I'm sorry, Mr Geller, but you know, there's an old saying. Sometimes monkeys die. It's not a great saying, but it certainly is fitting today. And another way in which we use this word is when we say that or it is sick, which, depending on the context and intonation, it could mean that's awesome. As in, I just listen to their album and it is totally sick or to the contrary. As Rachel says it here, it could mean disgusting. Oh my God, guys, you gotta come see this. There's some creep out there with the telescope. I can't believe it. He's looking right at us. Oh, that is so sick. I feel violated and not in a good way. To call in sick is to let your boss know you won't be able to go to work because you're sick and I'm in the movie. One of the virus victims called in sick, So Cathy recommended me. And boom, I'm dying on a gurney. Big deal, A big problem or something important, but also often said sarcastically to say that something is not a problem or not important. Be sure to pay attention to the context, such as in thes two examples. You better show him some respect. He's kind of a big deal. I can take you to the airport. It's no big deal Oh, hey, thing is so unfair. So I have a flaw. Big deal like Joey's constant knuckle cracking isn't annoying. And Ross with his over pronouncing every single word and Monica with that snort when she laughs. I mean, what the hell is that about last night? You know, Chandler, you didn't tell. Okay, cause I'm thinking we don't need to tell Chandler. I mean, it was just a kiss, right? One kiss. No big deal, right? No big deal. Okay. In Bizarro World, you broke the code. What code? You don't kiss your friend's mom. Sisters air. Okay, maybe a hot looking Get up. What? You're my C. How is this your seat? Because I was sitting there. But then you left. Well, it's not like I went to Spain. I went to the bathroom. You knew I was coming back. What's the big deal? Said someone else. The big deal is I was sitting there last. So that's my seat. Actually, the last place you were sitting was in there, give a shocked to try something or attempt to do something example. I've ever played basketball before, but I'll give it a shot. This also means to try your luck or take a chance at something. When you give something a shot, you hope you'll get a successful result. A woman undone by Rachel Karen Greene Yeah, I thought I'd give it a shot. I'm still in the first chapter now. Do you think his love stick can be liberated from its denim prison? They're back. Joey and Janice's Day. A C latest, sweetheart. You too, Chandler. You still can't stand it, can you? Sorry, man. I tried. You know, I appreciate you giving it a shot. A shot is an opportunity. Some common complications are to have or get a shot. Meaning to have or get an opportunity or to be worth a shot. Meaning there's value and trying your luck as you might succeed. It's okay if I stay in touch. Yeah, just two. All right. It means that much. I'll let you have it. Thanks. Let me have her. What? You mean like, if you didn't, I wouldn't have a shot. I don't like to say it out loud, but Yeah. Listen, that TV movie I went in for Did you hear anything? I think I got a shot at it. Yes, they called you didn't get it. Get it. I'm sorry. That sign. It's okay. Houston tapped. Oh, okay. I don't know how to say this, but, um, I think when your wife's spirit left her body, it kind of stuck around in May. You're saying my wife is in you? She always used to say that before she died, she wanted to see everything. Everything. Everything. Whoa. That's a lot of stuff, Way I remember. She also said she wanted to sleep with me one last time. I'm sorry. There is laughing in my head with a shot, huh? Be seeing someone to be in a relationship with someone to date someone example. My brother's been seeing this cute Brazilian girl for a few months now. So explain something to me here. What kind of relationship do you imagine us having If you already have a husband and a boyfriend, I suppose mainly sexual, huh? I'm sorry it didn't work out. What? Not work out of seeing her again on Thursday. You listen to the story. Well, I mean, when I first met you, you know, I thought maybe possibly might be. You did? Huh? Uh I mean, the rest of you guys think that when you first met me? Not me? No. No, Me neither. Although, uh, you know, back in college, Susan salad or did You're kidding. Did you tell her I wasn't? No, it's just I kind of wanted to go out with her, too. So I told her, actually, you were seeing Bernie Spellman, who also liked her. It was nice. Nice meeting you did it? I, uh Well, I met Russ. Oh, hey, I didn't know we were seeing other people. Well, we're not seeing each other. So well, off your information, there's a woman at the museum. Let it be known that she is drawn to me much like a well, you know, have a point. We say that someone has a point when that person is making a good argument about something. We also often say that's a good point. If you want, I could lend you some money. Hell, no. I couldn't pay you back right away. Then I feel guilty and tense every time I saw you. Oh, well, they want you want you borrowed from mom and Dad. They feel guilty and tense around them already. You might as well make some money off him. You know, the man's got a point, so? Well, I I I guess I just never think of money as an issue. That's because you have it. That's a good point. In the falling two scenes, the guys ask about the point because they don't think what they're being told. That makes much sense. Okay. Worst case scenario. Say you never feel like a fun, huh? Say your son never feels connected to you as one say all of his relationships are affected by this. You have a point. You know, You think I would? I l a surprise. Look, that's a new fishy. I named him up family, You know, after after you. Well, that's not even a real fish. No, that's a goldfish cracker. So much appointment. Okay. Good night. You big freak in nature when we say the point is we mean, the main idea of what I'm talking about is what? He's cute. Oh, yeah. No, Brian in payroll eyes. Brian. So I don't know. Point is that if you're going to set me up with someone, I'd like to think you would set me up with somebody like him. My life. Think Brian's a little out of your league, Theun. We use I see your point to say we understand the other person's opinion. Although we might still think in a different way. So did you do it? Yes. Yes, we had sex. Uh, it was bad. It was fine, you know, But she didn't agree with Maia's strongly. She agreed with Joe. He was more like, uh, I see your point be or get out of here. Used to announce someone is leaving. Example. I have a meeting soon, so I'm out of here. Okay. Just happened. How did this happen to me? A week ago? Two weeks ago, I was fine. Ross was just Ross. Just this guy. Now all of a sudden, he's I'm just gonna do it. I gotta get out of here. Get out of here. I'm gonna miss my flight. I'll walk you out. You take care. I gotta go. So, uh, I'll see you guys later. Okay. So, uh, we on for tomorrow? Absolutely. Now get out of here, You. Well, I'm ready to get the hell out of here instead of the more common B or get. We also sometimes use verbs of movement with the phrase out of here like walk or storm, which means to go somewhere really quickly. But we still want different things. We know how this has been a I knew it. I gotta walk outta here right now because getting over you was the hardest thing that I have ever had to do. You know what? I came to you because I thought you'd understand. Oh, no, no o e. I would storm out of here right now if I had some money or a place to go. And there is another use of this expression which we use when we're surprised or in disbelief about what someone told us. Like in the example. Get out. Leonardo DiCaprio was at the party you went to last night. Okay. Hey, how come you have to? Well, this one's for you. When Joey says get out, he's saying it as an exclamation of disbelief. He can't believe that Chandler actually got him a bracelet. I can't. And there's another implied meaning of get out, which we generally use when we say I can't get out of this situation. In this episode, Chandler was actually forced by Joey toe wear the bracelet So while Joey is happy about the fact Chandler got him a bracelet, Chandler is hopeless. That he can't escape the situation. You'd rather not wear the bracelet? No, no. Listen, I know how much this means to you. And I also know that this is about more than just jewelry. It's about you and me and the fact that we're best buds. No way. Absolutely no. No chance example? No. I'm going on a date with her. Also used to show disbelief similarly to get out. No way you actually met Ellen. Guys, tell him you were married. No way. You're kidding. My girlfriend doesn't know. I'm not gonna tell them. It's Monica's big night. She shouldn't pay. Thank you. So five of us is 33 50 apiece. No. Uh, no way. Sorry. Not gonna happen. Whoa, whoa. Prom night flashback. No way I'm gonna get a shot. Maybe they can take the needle and squirt it into my mouth. Like like of course. Good. When I moved out, I hurt him bad. I promise you he would definitely want you back. I'm telling you, there's no way he's moving back. All right. Awesome job today.
