Hello my name is Riccardo and welcome back to SPIKA presents Get the Vocab
-
the show that teaches you English using TV series
-
in this season we're going to talk about the big bang theory
-
in every video we talk about the key word of a specific episode
-
remember to watch this video first and then watch the episode
-
and after that, you can come on our website and check out some cool stuff that we have for you!
-
but now let's get started with the Big Bang Theory!
-
So the first word we are going to see today is
-
Now, "propensity" is when youdo something, and you usually do it always in the same way, naturally
-
so you have a propensity for it, let me give you an example...
-
when we go out, Vanessa has the propensity for drinking too much!
-
<"Oh! Come on!">
-
this has two meanings
-
literally speaking, "to snap" means to break something in half
-
metaphorically speaking, it means to become reeeeeeally angry, very quickly!
-
So for example: "when Hulk SNAPS, Hulk smash!"
-
It just means when you're very worried about someone
-
"honey, I am so concerned about you!"
-
Don't worry honey! It's going to be alright!
-
Yeah! I forced her to do it!
-
Now, the "Pursuit" is the action of going after someone or something
-
and it's very common in the news so for example you will hear...
-
The PURSUIT of the police ended up last night, at nine o'clock
-
and the criminal has been found to have 9624 pounds of cocaine on him
-
Back to you, john
-
these are two physical problems that someone can have
-
a LIMP is when you can't walk normally because you have a problem with your leg
-
so you walk like this:
-
a LAZY EYE is when you can't see properly from one of your eyes
-
and you have it closed almost always like this
-
"to have a shot" means to have the possibility to succeed at something
-
even if it's a little bit difficult, like...
-
This describes the action of a person who tries to have "physical contact"
-
with another one who doesn't want to
-
if they try to hard, it's called "sexual harassment"
-
and you can go to jail for it, so watch out!!!
-
now this verb just means we are able to do something
-
or you can take care of a situation which is very difficult, for example
-
This verb means when something is in your destiny so it MUST happen
-
or when you must do something for example we're BOUND by law
-
to buy the TV shows Ithat we watch
-
but we all do, right? ;)
-
now this verb just means when you can't make a decision between two important things
-
for example I'm torn between either moving to London or to Miami Beach
-
no... not really!
-
to carve means to create something by cutting the surface
-
like a statue!
-
the tool used to do it is a "Chisel".
-
all right, so that was it for today
-
thank you so much for watching, it means a to to us, and you know it!
