I'm Esther and in this video we're going to talk about an important idiom.

Hit on now.

Hit on doesn't mean to hit right?

Hit means you punch someone or you use your hand to hurt someone.

So that's not what it means.

Hit on means.

Well, when a guy maybe likes a girl, he sees someone and he thinks that girl is cute, he wants to know her better, He wants to know her more.

So he might go to her and ask for her phone number, tried to talk to her.

That's hitting on uh that's hit on, right?

He's hitting on her.

Okay?

So yes, a girl can hit on a guy as well.

Um usually, but it's usually the guy that hits on the girl.

Uh so let's look at these examples, He hit on her, he hit on her again.

This means he went to the girl and tried to talk to her and know her better.

So maybe they can be a couple later or have a relationship again.

He hit on her.

The next sentence says she got hit on, she got hit on this is not the same as this sentence, right?

So she didn't hit on someone, she got hit on, which means that somebody hit on her.

So don't get that confused.

So let's look at some more example sentences together.

Okay, let's look at these examples, She always gets hit on at the bar, She always gets hit on at the bar.

Many guys hit on me many guys hit on me.

I saw a man hit on a pretty girl.

I saw a man hit on a pretty girl, He's a womanizer.

He hits on every girl, he's a womanizer.

He hits on every girl.

Okay, so let's review one more time we learned the idiom.

Hit on again.

Hit on means you like someone that you don't know, you go and talk to them again.

Maybe try to get to know them better or their phone number or something like that.

Now in America.

Um yeah, guys hit on girls of course, but I think in Korea a lot more korean guys tend to hit on girls in public places like the bus stop or on the street or maybe even on the subway.

So that's the word we learned in this video and I hope to see you guys next time.

Bye.

Mhm.
