Learn the English Phrases TO BITE YOUR TONGUE and BITE YOUR TONGUE!

Описание: Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases TO BITE YOUR TONGUE and BITE YOUR TONGUE!

In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase to bite your tongue. Now, sometimes you're chewing food and you accidentally bite your tongue, and that doesn't feel very good. It hurts quite a bit. But we use the phrase to bite your tongue to talk about when you try not to say something in a certain situation. Maybe your boss is telling you that you've done something poorly and you want to say something back to your boss. It's probably not a good idea. It's probably a good time to bite your tongue. I had this when I was a kid as well. Once my dad was a little bit annoyed with me about something, and then I said something, but I should not have done that. When I think back, I think, it probably would have been a better idea to bite my tongue than to say something, because it just made my dad a little bit more annoyed.

The second phrase I wanted to teach you today is the same phrase, but as a command. You can say to someone, "Bite your tongue," and it basically means that you want them to stop talking. So, if someone is talking to you and they're not being very nice and you want to tell them to shut up. That's kind of a mean thing to say. You could also say, "Bite your tongue," but it's not a nice thing to say to someone. When you say, "Bite your tongue," it's very direct. It's very, it's definitely a command. It's maybe something a parent would say to a child, if they're very, very frustrated or annoyed with their child. They might say, "Bite your tongue," and it's also used a lot when people use bad words, like a parent, if a child said the F-word, for instance, a parent might say, "Hey, bite your tongue. Don't use swear words. That's bad."

Anyways, to review, to bite your tongue is simply to stop yourself from talking. I guess, if you actually did bite your tongue a little bit, that does stop you from saying something, doesn't it? And when you tell someone to bite their tongue, or if you say, "Bite your tongue," it means that you want them to shut up. It means that you want them to stop saying whatever they're saying.

But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Liu. "After spending an afternoon at a social event, I was tuckered out. I'm not good at socializing. It's always hard for me to find topics and to keep the conversation going." And then my reply. "Social events can be exhausting."

Now, I've mentioned this before a few times, that as much as I seem like this happy, friendly person here on YouTube, and that you might think that I'm really outgoing and love social events, I'm actually similar to Liu. When I go to a social event, it can be a little bit draining. We learned the English phrase to be tuckered out, which means to be really tired. Sometimes when I go to social events, at the end of it, I'm just really, really tired and exhausted, more like mentally exhausted, if you know what I mean. My favorite kind of event is the event where there's just a few people, not a lot of people just, I don't know, three or four people sitting around a campfire. That is my favorite type of event.

Well, hey, I was gonna show you. Maybe I can get this in this frame. You could see this tree. There's a few buds on this tree. It seems to me, if we're quiet as well, that I can hear birds chirping. So we're definitely well on our way to spring. I'm wearing my winter coat today. I'm not sure why. I probably could have just worn my spring jacket. By the way, my spring jacket and fall jacket are, they're the same jacket, but we sometimes will use the same name to describe both of them. Maybe I should have worn my spring jacket today. It's a beautiful, lovely day out here. Let me just spin you around, and you can see the fire pit, which we'll be using soon. Oh, there's a bottle in there. I should clean that up. We have a nice grill that we use to grill things as well.

Anyways, see you in a couple days with another short English lesson. Bye!
