our next topic is kpop news if you’re a
kpop fan let me know who is your
favorite band I know – now I know three
APink BTS no I’m lying I know – I
thought only three but I don’t I’m
stupid sorry
so in today’s kpop news this that is a
handsome dude Jimin is his name he’s in
a Korean pop group kpop called BTS
there’s been a bit of trouble why well
because he wore this shirt on I think
Korean Independence Day which showed
that thing there is the atomic bomb that
fell on Hiroshima in Japan so this is
quite controversial of course yeah
obviously you shouldn’t do things like
that dude
Jimin man mate this was a bad decision
also his band member mate wore a hat
with a Nazi symbol on it
dude what are you doing what are you
doing I don’t know his name
if you’re a BTS fan let me know so this
is the topic this is the controversy and
one wore a nazi hat and one wore a
t-shirt seemingly celebrating the fall
of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima
obviously not a brilliant idea so they
gave an apology they said sorry publicly
about this so let’s look at that apology
then we’ll decide was that a good
apology could it have been better and
we’ll look at other ways to apologize in
English and how to accept an apology in
English let’s have a look okay this this
is the apology that they gave we would
like to offer our sincerest apologies to
anyone who has suffered pain distress
and discomfort due to our shortcomings
and oversight in ensuring that these
matters receive our most careful
attention a vocabulary that we’re doing
sincere distress due to
shortcomings and oversight also notice I
highlighted ensuring that’s just the
progressive version of ensure which we
just did a minute ago it means to make
sure something happens sincere I believe
it translates well to Latin languages
but let’s be clear sincere means it’s
honest it’s from the heart for example
what I’m telling you is sincere the
opposite would be it’s just a joke I’m
not serious it’s but to be
sincere you’re speaking truly really
from the heart and it’s it’s honest
distress is it’s painful a stressful
feeling so if you do something and it
makes someone feel you’re causing them
distress that pain do too last time we
learned that jutsu
can mean an scheduled thing or an
expectation like for example my flight
is due to arrive at 5:00 p.m. example
but this one this due to this has a
different meaning it’s a different
context jutsu can mean because of
example the tennis match was cancelled
due to bad weather in London what
happens often the trains are not running
due to a strike always happens next one
is shortcomings your shortcomings are
your weaknesses or things basically
things you’re not good at you’re not
good enough at for example and if you
talk about your strengths as a person
and your weaknesses your weaknesses
they’re your shortcomings
what could we give us an example England
has a few shortcomings firstly our
weather it’s not great these are all
quite formal word
by the way so in casual conversation you
might not hear them often informal
conversation in formal writing then you
probably would
so oversight means you didn’t pay enough
attention and a mistake happened so in
this case they are suggesting that they
weren’t paying enough attention to this
image on the shirt or the Nazi symbol
and the dudes hat like it’s not
difficult to say I say this is a
apology so try to use these in
your own examples I want to check your
examples Lourdes Ellis is saying Jew 2
equals therefore well let me show you so
if I say it’s raining therefore I’ll
take an umbrella I won’t say it’s
raining Jew – I’ll take an umbrella so
no it’s it works in the reverse way
almost example I’m taking an umbrella
due to the rain so no it’s not the same
as therefore little Pavone is saying my
shortcoming in using excel upsets me I
do I can use Microsoft Excel sucks kpop
is my shortcoming Pucci posed saying I
didn’t go to the gym this afternoon due
to the rain cats and dogs firstly don’t
say it’s raining cats and dogs
it doesn’t sound natural secondly just
due to the rain that’s enough Syrena
salvia st. British intonation is one of
my shortcomings Jung Gyu Li whoa that is
an amazing example due to watching Papa
Ali is my name your father
Hey I sincerely overcame my shortcomings
of English I mean it’s almost perfect
your use of sincerely sounds a bit
unnatural so but remove that from the
sentence and it’s perfect I
overcame my shortcomings in English
Bernadette Yara is saying Ali did they
ever deliver the reason why they wore
those symbols honestly so if if you’re
following this story and you know if
they gave a reason please let me know
because I would love to know as a Korean
I feel bad to see BTS being popular
since they could worsen South Korea’s
reputation really I’ve already explained
the reason and apologized many times
cool but what do we think I mean is that
enough what do we think okay this is
very formal you won’t say this to
someone face to face for example so
these these are ways that you can
apologize in English okay the first one
I know I hurt your feelings this it’s
important to acknowledge to realize say
to the other person I know that I’m bad
I did something bad another way to say I
messed up this is quite informal so you
probably won’t say it to your boss I
messed up I’m sorry
also notice the pronunciation the IDI is
a sound so I’ve messed messed up messed
up
that’s the connected sound messed up I
messed up sorry that one’s quite common
to use though like with your friends I
forgot to bring food I messed up sorry a
bit more formal I’m ever so sorry I’m
ever so sorry this one sounds very
sincere if someone said this to me I’m
ever so sorry
this sounds deep sounds very from the
heart sincere
I encourage use of I’m ever so sorry in
fact I’m quite British if I hit someone
when I’m walking if I bump into someone
I will say oh I’m ever so sorry that’s
my standard reply that’s my standard
apology I’m ever so sorry
now before I completely apologize what
is it apologize well pronunciation is
always British or American apologize
with the sound
Zed sound however I’ve given two
examples right here apologize with an S
II that’s the British spelling with ze
that’s the American spelling so any eyes
eyes analyse the Z that’s the American
spelling the S it’s a British spelling
it’s that simple number five I was
completely in the wrong so we can say it
this way I was in the wrong just make
sure you have the preposition correct
with that number six I shouldn’t have
done that so this we get a bit more of
the grammar gets a bit more advanced
with this one I shouldn’t have done that
we know the meaning of should means it’s
a good idea shouldn’t it’s not a good
idea so to save that in the past I
shouldn’t have and that is a verb three
just their past participle verb 3 done
eaten drunk swum it’s a verb 3 I
shouldn’t have done that
and finally my bad this is very informal
so if you’re with your friends that’s
the one you use oh sorry my bad this is
very very informal never use this with a
boss it doesn’t sound sincere you can
use it as a joke apology if you don’t
really mean the apology you can be
sarcastic with it oh good question
audio saying what’s the difference
between sorry and excuse me sorry is
more a bit more serious so if someone
dies you’d say oh I’m sorry
I’m sorry to hear that your brother died
I’m sorry
or if I
break something of yours ash I’m so
sorry like that excuse me is there more
for small things for example if you’re
walking you want to pass someone oh
excuse me
or if you want someone to repeat
something excuse me
you can also use sorry for that cool
so those are ways to apologize but if
someone says them to you how can you
accept that let’s have a look
ways to accept apologies so someone says
sorry to you how can you reply of course
that’s all right that’s okay
look at the pronunciation all right all
right that’s all right don’t worry
that’s all right
second one is my favorite no worries no
worries this is very common it’s very
informal but to be honest I use it in
formal situations I don’t know why it’s
informal but it sounds okay in many
situations no worries no problem it’s
standard but that’s boring we don’t like
standard here it doesn’t matter you want
to say it’s not important
don’t worry it doesn’t matter number
five this is interesting you couldn’t
help it if you want to say okay you did
a bad thing but it wasn’t your choice
maybe someone else did something meaning
it’s not your responsibility that this
bad thing happened you can say oh you
you couldn’t help it it’s you know it
doesn’t matter no worries okay if
someone comes into your house they open
the door and something falls off and a
shelf and they say oh sorry
you might say to them oh you couldn’t
help it
it’s not your fault you couldn’t help it
these these are interesting so no harm
done just means it’s like I forgive you
I don’t feel bad this is the same as
number seven no hard feelings
no harm done ah no feelings no hard
feelings
usually we drop the H no hard feelings
no hard feelings so yeah if you want to
say oh maybe what you did was bad but I
don’t hate you yeah quite specifically I
don’t hate you you say ah no harm done
no hard feelings we’re good we’re okay
Serena is asking about the H in hard
feelings I just I wouldn’t say it that
specific expression feels a bit less
formal a bit less posh so I would drop
the H oh no hard feelings
no word feelings no hard feelings ah
Buryatia saying no big E’s no biggie
yeah that’s true not not a big deal
that’s okay no biggie that’s also
another one that’s a great example yeah
really good well done okay so um those
are some great ways to apologize and how
to accept apologies make sure you are
