Description

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases REALLY SOMETHING and SOMETHING ELSEIn this English lesson I wanted to help you learn the English phrase. Really something. When you say that something is really something it means that it is amazing or that it was amazing. Let's imagine that you went and watched a soccer game or a football game, and it was an amazing game. You could say that game was really something. It simply means that you were in awe that you were impressed that you had a great time watching the game because the players played so well. So you would say, wow, that game was really something. That goal was really something. That guy is really something. So when you say something is really something it just means it's amazing. And sometimes we don't say the ing part we just say something. So you could say, wow, that game was really something. That guy is really something. He is an amazing player or that goal was really something.The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase something else which means exactly the same as really something. So using the same examples again you could say that game was something else. That guy is an amazing player. He is something else. That goal that he scored was something else. So once again when you say that something is something else it simply means that it is amazing. And then once again you probably heard me say it a few times. I say something else. That was something else. So something else is the proper way to pronounce it. But generally when I say it quickly I say something like that game was something else. That lesson that Bob did the other day it was something else.So to review when you say something is really something like if you say, oh, that car is really something that brand new Ford Mustang that car is really something. It means that it's amazing and if you were to say that Ford Mustang is something else it means also that it's really amazing.Hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. I have a comment here from my last video where I set a slightly bad word. It's not considered a swear word in English. It's considered a bad word. Let's put it that way. But Judit, it says, hi Judit by the way. It wasn't a big Deal, you got a bit wet. It was funny though how you jumped up from the chair and raced into the building. And at least I heard you say a bad word. And my response was in the end I really didn't get too wet at all. It did rain hard for about a minute and then it was pretty much over. The weather has been like this all week very unpredictable it's even unpredictable right now. The weather has been strange this week. It's sunny and then it rains. But let me get back to the comment. Thank you, Judit, for leaving a comment. That was nice of you.I hope most of you didn't mind hearing the use a bad word. I am not someone who swears regularly in real life but every once in a while, I do say a bad word. Sometimes they just come out. We always say in English, some people don't swear until they hit their, their thumb with a hammer by accident. A lot of times when you are working with a hammer and nail, you accidentally hit your thumb. And I think most people in the world at that point in time say some kind of bad word. Maybe it's a very mild bad word, but people do when they hurt themselves or apparently with me when it starts raining. We, we do say bad words every once in a while.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/bobthecanadian)
