Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases ON A MISSION and MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!In this English lesson I wanted to teach you the English phrase, on a mission. When you say someone is on a mission it means they're working hard at something, they're diligent, they're getting a lot of stuff done, they are on a mission. It kind of comes from like in the Army, people go on missions but we use it to talk about people in real life as well. You could say this, my daughter wanted to get her driver's license and she is on a mission. She is studying for her test, she is getting ready to go and do her driver's test, she is on a mission. She studies like every minute of the day to get ready for that, she's on a mission. So when you wanna talk about someone who's very determined and working very hard on something you could say that they're on a mission.WANT FREE ENGLISH LESSONS?

This is something we sometimes say in a joking way, when we finish a large task. Sometimes we'll say to someone, mission accomplished. Someone might say, hey, did you get that project done at work? You could say, oh, mission accomplished, it's all done and ready to go. Maybe someone says to you, did you get all the groceries and did you get all of your errands done? You could then say, yep, mission accomplished, all of that is done. If you wonder why I'm laughing there's a cat down here, I'll show you for a sec. It's running away now, there's a cat down there and it keeps kind of going around my feet.Anyways, to review, when you are on a mission you are bound and determined to get something done. There's another phrase for you, you're bound and determined to get it done. And when you say mission accomplished it means you've done something, it's all done, and you're kind of celebrating a little bit by saying, mission accomplished. That's what I say, after I'm done, all of my videos for the day, I say mission accomplished.But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Noriko, if I'm remembering correctly. It's getting more common here in Japan to wear reflective belts when people go for a walk or jog at night. Please keep wearing your reflective vest when you walk so that you feel more safe and everyone who visits Ontario can find you easily, thanks. My response I might even buy a reflective toque, that's a winter hat in Canadian English, and gloves.Yeah, I'm trying to be as reflective as possible. Thanks for the comment, Noriko. I think it's becoming more and more important to be as reflective as possible. It's cool to hear that in Japan, people have reflective belts, I should look into that. In English, when you look into something, it means you research it a little bit.I just about tripped on a cat here, let me let you have a look here. This is the cat that has been following me around while I make this video. I'm not sure what it wants, there's also a cat over there by the van, by the way and you might even be able to hear one meowing. I think the cats haven't been fed yet today. But anyways, what was I saying? I lost my train of thought there. There's another phrase, but yes, reflective vest. Maybe I should get one of those too. Maybe that would make me highly recognizable on the side of the road.Well, hey, it is a nice Tuesday morning here. I usually make these the day before and I'm having a very pleasant day at home. As I mentioned there was a little break from school last week, there was a convention and all kinds of fun stuff. Yesterday we went back to work and we're teaSupport the show
