hello everyone welcome back to English pod my name is Marco and I'm Erica and today we're bringing you a very I would say embarrassing lesson for us men right embarrassing for men but I think it's okay for women that's right we're going to be talking about buying underwear specifically women's underwear right so um obviously not the favorite thing for men to do well apart from being a little bit uncomfortable it's also boring yeah it involves shopping right it involves shopping so we we're not really big on that all right but well even though it might
be a little bit of an uncomfortable um topic there is some great language in here isn't there yeah there's some really good words and of course uh the different types of underwear that we're going to be looking at yeah but we also have some words that we're going to take a look at before we get into our dialogue so let's start with vocabulary preview vocabulary preview well we're going to look at two words that will appear in our dialogue and the first one is lingerie linger lingerie okay so lingerie this is a nice fancy word
mhm basically for underwear right right for women's underwear women's underwear yeah so lingerie but it's very nice very like pretty sexy sexy underwear yeah now the spelling of this word is interesting isn't it yeah it's spelled l i n g e r i e lingerie lerie yes don't you love English spellings so women's nice pretty sexy underwear that's right and our second word awkward awward awkward awkward so this is a feeling that men have especially when they're buying women's underwear well yeah you feel a little bit uncomfortable or it's a strange situation weird or out
of place it's awkward yes all right so we're going to be hearing both of these two words in the dialogue now Marco where are we here we're going to be at a department store at the section where they have women's lingerie and we have a guy buying underwear for his girlfriend all right well let's find out what [Music] happens this sucks I hate buying lingerie okay just find something and get out of here all right these are fine oh no don't come over here don't come over here you look a little lost can I help
you um I'm just having a look around it's my girlfriend's birthday tomorrow I'm trying to find her something well you can't give her granny panties have you thought about getting her some sleepwear we've got these lovely silky NES or how about some nice panties on a bra set look here's a nice satin push-up bra and you can choose a few different styles of undies to go with it sure that's fine this is so awkward what ones do I pick what size is she well do you want a thong some bikini briefs maybe this nice pair
of lacy boy shorts just pick something and get the hell out of here um I'll go with these two this is mortifying I just want to get this over with and she better her thanking for this here you are sir I'm sure she'll enjoy them finally I'm sorry sir I'm going to have to take a look inside your bag oh the poor guy I totally feel bad for him yeah he was really nervous and of course it was very uncomfortable for him I know and then the security guard shows up exactly but we had the
opportunity to take a look at some really great words and phrases so let's start off with our first one in language takeaway language takeaway all right well we're going to look at words here that mostly have to do with underwear describing underwear right and the first one is granny panties granny panties granny panties this isn't like a real real word right it's not something you'll find at a dictionary no it's a slang word um and we use it to describe really big ugly underwear like your grandmother would wear all right so they're not like the
sexy little underwear it's more like long and it's not very appealing just picture what your grandmother would wear no all right so granny panties so obvious viously um this guy doesn't want to be buying any of those but the saleswoman suggests that he try some sleepwear sleep wear sleep wear sleepwear okay so sleep wear obviously clothes you wear when you're sleeping now this is really interesting because men aren't really that complicated when it comes to sleeping just throw on a T-shirt and that's it well obviously for women there are more options and and more different
things you can choose from so it's a whole separate category for women even when you're sleeping you must wear something nice yes one type of sleep wear is Silky 9es nties 9es n i g h t i e s okay so a nighty um it's basically a dress that you wear when you sleep okay now the pronunciation is interesting because the first five letters are night right right but you don't say night you don't say nighty you say nighty yeah you you make the t a d nighty now she offered him some silky 9es right
so silky obviously we know silk is a soft shiny fabric right so when something is Silky it's either made from silk or it's soft and shiny okay so some silky n is very soft shiny uh 9es exactly okay what about our next word well the sales girl offers different styles of undies undies undies undies so undies is an interesting word it's basically short for underwear underwear okay so you can just call underwear unies yes but I think you mostly use this when you're talking about women's underwear oh really I mean I don't know if I
would say unes when I'm talking about men's underwear no I don't think so maybe children's underwear yeah yeah yeah for children for children right yep okay all right so we saw some of the different types of clothing but now let's take a look at this interesting adjective mortifying mortifying this is is mortifying mortifying okay so when something is mortifying well I think we've got some examples to show you what that is like example one and then I fell in front of everyone it was mortifying example two I was completely mortified when I realized what I
had done example three it must have been mortifying for her when she realized that her underwear was showing so basically it's very embarrassing super embarrassing you want to die almost yep okay which is I interesting I mean Mort right from Death yeah interesting all right well um atmology here at English Podge all right so some interesting okay so we saw the different types of underwear we saw this really great word for when you're really embarrassed so now let's take a look at some of the phrases that you would use when you're really embarrassed INF fluency
Builder fluency Builder all right well we have two phrases to look at here the first one get the hell out of here get the hell out of here get the hell out of here okay so if I say I want to get the hell out of here you want to leave this place really quickly really quickly just I want leave right now now when you're using this this phrase or this sentence uh get the hell out of here is it really polite no of course not it's it's impolite it's really negative very negative and informal
right so you would use this maybe with your friends or like in this case think it to yourself yes but it's not a good idea to use with your boss or your mother right yeah okay I guess sometimes depending on the tone you use how you say it you can sound really angry right definitely right okay all right well let's listen to some examples example one this place is scary let's get the hell out of here example two what are you doing in my house get the hell out of here example three we're at a
friend's party and all of a sudden her parents arrived we got the hell out of there as quickly as possible all right so get the hell out of here get the hell out of here now let's take a look at our last phrase for a fluency Builder get this over with get this over with I want to get this over with so you want to finish it really quickly but you want to finish it because you're not really enjoying it right exactly this is something that you use when the situation is negative it's negative okay
okay so I just want to get this over with yeah I want to get this test over with I want to get this day over with I want to get this maybe if you're on a bad date I want to get this date over with yes exactly all right well interesting phrases and I think it would help us to hear them once more in context in the [Music] dialogue this sucks I hate buying lingerie okay just find something and get out of here all right these are fine oh no don't come over here don't come

birthday y or sometimes we get dragged into a store to to buy this so you're shopping with your girlfriend and she's going to make you go look at underwear with her yeah I usually don't do that though I'll will just uh go to the next section and just look around look at tools look at TVs and PlayStations yes but you know what I have seen some men who go shopping with their girlfriends or wives and actually enjoy buying underwear see that's the thing I think it it makes sense but I don't know how comfortable you
would actually be I don't know why I guess just the how it indicates sexuality and all this stuff like I could do it for maybe 5 or 10 minutes give my professional advice and then I'm out of there all right well maybe those guys who look like they're enjoying themselves they just really talking in their heads um telling themselves how much they hate this exactly maybe they're just uh they're pretending pretending or listening to their iPod well tell us well guys I know we've got a lot of male listeners tell us what you think um
