38
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: American idioms or slang terms, yeah that you probably don't know.

39
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: I've been here, Will though, so I should know. Yes,

40
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: you've been here while Andrew mom is from America, so

41
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: I feel like you should do better than I think. Okay,

42
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: well let's prove that right. Okay, what does it mean

43
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: when someone says that they're a bat out of hell?

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: A bat out of hell, so typically hell's warm. So

45
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: I'm thinking that if you were to fly out of hell,

46
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: you would also be warm. So I'm going to say

47
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 1: you're hot. Okay, a bat out of hell is hot,

48
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: and let's find out the answer to that. I don't

49
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: think that's right. We'll find we'll find I think, quick, silence,

50
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: am incorrection. That is wrong, That is wrong. A bat

51
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: out of hell means like a crazy person, like they've

52
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: just been crazy, like a bat out of hell. I

53
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: thought that was like cats out of the note no

54
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: cats out of the bag. When someone says that they

55
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: let the cat out of the bag, that's when you

56
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: because the cat's coming out of bag. Right Therefore, hang

57
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: on one second. English seven has just been asked what

58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: term cat out of the bag means. He's English, so

59
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: he doesn't know much about American language. Will he be

60
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: able to tell us what the answer is? As a

61
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: cat to the cat out of the bag. I have

62
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: a cat, you do have? You got it out of

63
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: the bag? She was in the bag actually when I

64
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: picked her up. What does that mean? Well, when I

65
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: took her out, she was angry. So maybe taking the

66
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: cat out of the bag means you're angry is good term.

67
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: Does the term cat out of the bag mean angry?

68
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: Alex boo? That's wrong. No, it means that you like

69
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: let out a secret. Oh, like the cat out of

70
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: his bag? Like um, like it was like a surprise

71
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: or secret that we got cats out of the bag.

72
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: Are American idioms? Cats on him bags? Typically? I don't

73
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: know where some of these came from. And I a

74
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: lot of times, you know, someone will use a slang

75
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: term or a term an idiom like cat out of

76
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: the bag, and you'll think about it and you're like,

77
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: why is that a what's the secret? Was there a

78
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: guy walking around with a cat in a bag who

79
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: was trying to keep it a secret from someone And

80
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: then he's like talking to him like, I don't have

81
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: a cat in a bag. Nobody puts a cat in

82
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: a bag. And then it damn it, the cat's out

83
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: of the bag. Now, you know, I love it and

84
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: then with scenarios like that though, that's when they have

85
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: to then correct. So yeah, never mind, just carry them.

86
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: All right, This is gonna be the last one. This

87
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: is the last question that Ilex is about to ask

88
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: English Heaven in the game English Heaven versus America, where

89
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: we represent where we present him with some American idioms

90
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 1: and he has to guess what they are based on

91
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: the fact that he's English and has no idea what

92
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: American words mean. So far, if you're paying attention to

93
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: someone has not gotten a single one correct. Let's give

94
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,119
Speaker 1: it back to Alex fresh. Now we'll ask another question.

95
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: All right, that's the last one. Okay, what does it

96
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: mean when someone says you screwed the pooch? Well, if

97
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: you're paying attention at home, this is going to be

98
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: a very interesting answer. Look, the only thing I can

99
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: think of here is the literal definition. Okay, but we're

100
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: not talking about literal definitions. Is it someone who's into bestiality?

101
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: It has to be right, No, no, no. The meaning

102
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: of screwed the pooch means that you like ruin something

103
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: you messed up. It's like if you're at work right

104
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: and you do something wrong. At work, and he's like,

105
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: I really screwed the pooch on that one. But again,

106
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: where did that come from? Someone must have screwed the pooch. Yeah,

107
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: maybe they were maybe I don't know, maybe they're supposed

108
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: to groom the pooch and then they got it wrong

109
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: and they did that instead, and they're like, oh, I

110
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: was supposed to groom oh Man
