today is off-kilter or out of kilter. Okay. Basically they mean the same thing.

So let's take a look at the notes here. If something is off kilter , it is not

straight, level or lined up correctly. So this is one meaning we have for it. We

have a second one here. If something is of kilter or out of kilter it could be

in a state of chaos or or confusion. So this is another way something can be off

kilter or out of kilter. And number three maybe not working properly or out of

order. Okay. So let's let's continue here. The origin of kilter is that it is a

variant. Variant means of course you know, word that came from something else, or

it's another one used. Just like you know, yeah or yep is a variant of yes. So it's

a variant of an older word kilter, which meant order or good condition.

Okay. So if someone was off or out of kilter or Kelter from a long time ago, it

meant out of order or in bad condition. Okay. So again. Let's let's look at the

examples we have here to, to cover this. Example number one. That painting that

you hung on the wall is not quite straight. It is slightly off-kilter.

You should straighten it out and make it look lined up. Make it look more correct.

Number two. The main attraction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa is that it is

off kilter , but it is still standing. After many centuries. Yeah. People like to

go to see it because it's amazing that you have this tower that is leaning and

a lot of people like to go there and Italy it's not that far from Florence

and most people still pretend like you know they ... from a distance they look they

try to look like they're holding it up. So but, but the idea is it is off

kilter and that's the main attraction of it. Anyway,

let's look at number three. The side effects of that drug my doctor

prescribed for me, makes me feel dizzy. It's hard to get around when you feel

out of kilter. So again you can use it out of kilter here.

Number four. That machine is making funny noises and it is not working smoothly. It

is out of kilter and perhaps time to start looking for a new one. Okay. Good. I

hope you got it. I hope it's clear. Thank you for your time.

Bye-bye.
