do you remember the movie diehard three
these German terrorists are trying to
rob a bank and then a cop comes into the
bank almost ruining everything I mean
have you seen anything strange over the
last hour or so so the German terrorists
they have to convince the American cop
that they are actually Americans oops
just gonna make a round on the Bob floor
if you want to tag along
but then one of the terrorists says this
she was like it’s gonna rain like dogs
and he ruined it raining dogs and cats
no one it’s raining cats and dogs too
no one says it’s raining cats and dogs
anymore if your teacher is telling you
to say raining cats and dogs please tell
them to stop
[Music]
we use this structure it’s something it
down for example pouring it’s pouring it
down outside so rainy chucking it down
Chuck means to throw very hard if you
don’t like swearing don’t watch the next
five seconds my favorite one it’s
pissing it down outside
this does not happen very often in
England so as soon as the Sun comes out
what do English people do the clothes
disappear and we do this
sunbathe to sunbathe not sunbath I often
hear sunbath not that say it with me
sunbathe an example sentence you might
hear in London is plus 10 degrees I’m
going sunbathing
when you sunbathe one of two things will
happen
maybe you have a nice glow to your skin
maybe your skin’s a bit darker and a bit
sexier in this case you have a tan
that’s the noun you can use this as a
today I’m going to take advantage of the
Sun and I’m going to tan also as an
adjective to be tanned look at me I’m
tanned and sexy so you can use it as a
noun verb or an adjective this guy
however not so lucky if your skin is red
after the Sun and it’s ow it’s painful
to touch you are burned the adjective
burned also as a verb this is how we
would say it commonly I got burned maybe
you have seen this word with a T that’s
fine too okay before we continue

if so I have something amazing for you

description you can get it for just
fifty cents but spaces are filling fast
just remember when you sign up you
commit to paying for the course that’s
189 euros per month for three months
which already for a language course
that’s extremely good all the English
schools I’ve worked at it’s never that
cheap this is why it’s very important

group classes per month for 3 months
if you know you can do that this is for

addition if during the first two weeks
of signing up you decide for whatever
reason actually I really can’t do this
you can cancel your course and it’s no
problem so if you missed your chance
last time here’s another chance you’ll
also find a link to all the terms and
all the details in the description make
sure you check that out before signing
up ok back to the lesson let’s talk
about the heat
when it’s so hot and this happens to you
sweating pronunciation I often hear
sweet Sweeting no sweating the verb
sweat and how can he talk about the heat
it’s baking it’s sweltering say it with
me pronunciation baking that’s a
difficult one sweltering this is not as
and of course we like to be creative so
we could say it’s hot as hell for
example or replace that word for any
swear word all the bad words which are
nouns replace that with those and you’re
good those words of course I know some
of you don’t like swearing that’s fine
however I really really enjoy it and
this is English this is what we
naturally say okay but how about some
expressions that’s what you came for
let’s do that let’s imagine that you
have a friend I’m sure you have a friend
when times are good when everything is
great no problems no nothing they are
your best friend but maybe one day you
have a problem you have some trouble you
really need your friend to help you

problem ya know this type of friend in
good times your best friend in bad times

fair-weather friend of course it’s not a
good thing they are only your friend
during the good times the bad times

your Fairweather friend write it in the
comments sometimes the weather in London
