Do you fancy going for lunch? I've heard that new chicken restaurant just down the road is excellent! Feifei: Not sure about that. Neil: Oh, have you been there before? Feifei: Yes, and it left a bad taste in my mouth. Neil: Oh really? So the food's bad? Everyone says it's great! Feifei: Well, the food was great… Neil: Eh? The food was great but it left a bad taste in your mouth? I don't understand! Feifei: Let me explain. If something leaves a bad taste in your mouth, it means you've had a bad experience and the memory is unpleasant. Neil: Oh I see. So, what went wrong? Feifei: The bill was twice as much as it should have been! Neil: Ah I get it now - we use the expression it 'leaves a bad taste in your mouth' when we have a negative experience and feel bad or angry about it afterwards – like being ripped off in a restaurant! Feifei: Come on, Neil. Let's hear some examples. Then we can go for lunch somewhere that doesn't rip me off! I refuse to go back to that hotel. They were so rude! It left a bad taste in my mouth. When my boss sent me that angry email last thing on Friday, it left a bad taste in my mouth. It left a bad taste in my mouth when I got fined for going just one mile an hour over the speed limit! Feifei: This is The English We Speak from BBC Learning English. And I'm with Neil, who was wondering why I've got a bad taste in my mouth when it's got nothing to do with food. Neil: We use the expression it 'leaves a bad taste in your mouth' when we have a negative experience and feel bad or angry about it afterwards. So, is it time for lunch? Feifei: Yes, Neil! I really want you to come and try that new tofu place. The food's just delicious and the service is excellent! Neil: So, will it leave a good taste in my mouth? Feifei: It sure will! Bye. Neil: Bye.
