is two-faced. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. If someone says that

another person is two-faced, he or she means that this particular person is

deceitful, like a liar and phony. A two-faced person will pretend to like

someone in their presence while they are there and be pleasant with them. Okay.

When that person walks away or goes away, the two-faced person will usually be

what we sometimes call like a backstabber. You walk away, they will say

bad things about you. They will stab you in the back, as you go away or while you are

away. That person ... Okay. The idea of this phrase or maybe they'll also badmouth.

That's another way. We say badmouth means they will criticize that person as well.

All right. Let's continue. The idea for the origin of this phrase comes from the

Latin god, Janus who had two faces. One at the front of her head and the other

behind her head looking backwards. The latin god Janus is also where we get the

name for the month of January. Yeah. It was supposed to be like looking at the

year before and looking ahead at the year for the future. So that's why we got

January from the goddess , Janus. Okay, and we just have a couple of examples to

cover this here. Example number one. I cannot stand Janice. She is two-faced She

pretends she likes you and then she will trash you. Trash you is also another way for

like criticizing you or bad-mouthing you. She will trash you the minute you

walk away. So she'll trash you to somebody else. Okay. And number two here.

Beware of two-faced backstabbers around the office. Some people will do anything

to get ahead. Yeah. Some people think by trashing other people or criticizing

them or backstabbing them somehow it will help them to move ahead of that

person. So there's a lot of people, especially in office politics, we hear

that might be two-faced. Anyway, I hope you got it . I hope it was

clear. I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
