Ugh!

Not again!

Thank you!

Hi guys! It's me!

I'm here in sunny London

That's British sarcasm there

It's extremely cold today

But, I wanted to talk to you about some of the common British expressions

That I hear and use more or less every day.

So, let's get started!

So, the first one is 'All right?'

And this really means 'Hello, how are you?'

Some people get confused and think it means

Is everything ok?

Really, it's a very general question

It's a nice way of greeting somebody

So if you hear someone in the street say

'All right?' you can say 'Yeah, how are you?'

as a response

Ok, so the next one is 'I'm easy'

And this would be something you use when

somebody asks you to make a decision

and you don't really mind

Would you prefer Italian or Chinese food tonight?

mm...I'm easy

It means 'I don't really mind'

Ok, the next one is 'on about'

and this means 'talking about'

Ok? So if I say 'What's he on about?'

I'm really saying 'what's he talking about?'

Ok? It can be used quite negatively so if someones talking too much

You could say 'what's he on about!?'

So, my personal favourite of this list is

'Bob's your uncle!'

and this, if you're not familiar with the phrase,

may sound ridiculous, and it is!

Err...we're a little bit crazy here in the UK

But 'Bob's your uncle' is a phrase we use

to conclude a set of instructions

Like, for example, making a cup of tea!

You need to boil the water,

You need to add it to a cup

You need to add a tea bag

You need to let it brew

You then need to take the teabag out

and then add some milk

and sugar to taste

and then...

Bob's your uncle! You've made a cup of tea!

Ok so this last one 'easy peasy'

is something I used to say quite a lot when I was a child

But I might still say it every now and again

now

This mean's that something is really easy

The full rhyme is 'easy peasy lemon squeezy'

I don't recommend that you use this phrase in a job interview

But, for general fun and general conversation

It's absolutely fine.

So, how was the exam?

It was easy peasy!

And then if you really want to go for it..

It was easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

Thank you for watching this short and fun little lesson today
