  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Noun Phrase eighty-six. The noun phrase today

  • is a broken record. Okay. Let's take a look at the note. All right. We got two

  • definitions. Here's the first definition. A damaged record that had a skip. Yeah.

  • A skip was like if you ever remember the old black vinyl records where there

  • was a part of the album that got damaged and the needle would actually jump and

  • it was a skip and it would repeat the same part of that song over and over

  • again. So that's what they mean here. A damaged record that had a skip which

  • constantly repeated a part of a song over and over again. Yeah. I don't know

  • but like I said if you're old enough to remember this Like if it was the

  • Beatles song. like I love you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It would be like, I love you, I love

  • you, I love you and then it would just be repeating it over and over again. That's

  • what we mean. So okay. So this is the original meaning. Of course we're

  • probably not going to use this quite as much anymore because it's hard to find

  • records. They have become like antiques now and they become kind of obsolete, but the

  • second meaning we still do use and it comes directly from this first meaning.

  • So here's the second meaning. If someone expresses a statement or opinion

  • frequently, especially an annoying one. We say that someone sounds like or has

  • become a broken record. Or we might say why do you make me sound like a broken

  • record ? Why do I have to be like a broken record ? Don't make me feel like a

  • broken record. We often hear people say it that way.

  • All right. So let's look at a couple of examples here. Example number one. I hate

  • to sound like a broken record. Well how many times have I told you not to do

  • that ? This is a typical way that we might hear it used or number two. Don't make me

  • become a broken record. Why don't you just listen and follow what I say ? Okay.

  • Good and this part is also good to note too. The last part here. The British say a

  • stuck record. So they actually say it in a different way. So Americans say a

  • broken record and the British say a stuck record. Anyway, I hope you got it. I

  • hope it's clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
