Hello, everybody. My name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions.
You and me every day.
Come on! Let's master English!
Hello, everybody. Welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression, the podcast. Yay!
Thank you to Artium and Maurizio.
I'll tell you why, after we study today's expression, which Which is a phrasal verb to mull something over.
Okay, to mull something over.
M -U -L -L, mull it that something over.
O -V -E -R, over. To mull it over.
I will mull it over.
I want to mull it over.
I mulled it over. What does it mean to mull something over?
it means to think about it very carefully.
And to mull something over means to chew on it.
That's basically the idea, to chew on it, to have that idea in your head, that proposal in your head, that suggestion in your head, and just keep chewing on the idea, hmm hmm hmm, thinking about it before you make a decision.
Do you understand? So today, I had to choose a new expression.
Well, I have several to choose from, so I wasn't sure which one I wanted to do.
So I mulled it over, and I decided to teach this expression, and it's a good one.
whenever you have a serious decision, something that you should think about, you should use this expression.
So for example if a guy says, so we would like you to buy this new computer and you do want to buy a computer but, oh boy, the one he wants to sell you is very expensive before you spend all that money?
Maybe you should mull it over.
You should probably think about it before you spend all that money.
What happens if you buy the wrong thing or you don't need it or you find a better situation?
You need to mull it over.
Don't make a quick AC?
Oh I'm still mulling it over.
Get one. It's gonna be so hot in the summer.
I know but air conditioners are expensive.
Yes as many of you know I live in the desert and oh oh my goodness in the summer it is so hot.
Yeah 40 degrees is nothing, yeah, 40 degrees is a spring day, so if you live in the desert like me, like a crazy person, you need to have an air conditioner and it needs to work all the time, but good air conditioners the best air conditioners are really expensive.
You can still buy some good used air conditioners, so if you're going to buy an AC, an air conditioner, should you buy a new one, should you buy the best, should you buy a used one?
It's a difficult decision.
It's a decision that you need to mull over.
I need to mull it over.
Well fortunately for me, I live in an apartment, so I don't have to buy an air conditioner.
But if I lived in a house, yes, then I would be forced to buy an air conditioner.
What about you? Do you live in a house?
Do you have to buy an air conditioner?
Do you buy the best?
Do you buy the most expensive?
Do you buy a used one?
What do you do? When's the last time you had to mull something over?
Let's check out that dialogue two more times.
So did you buy a new AC?
I'm still mulling it over!
Get one, it's going to be so hot in the summer!
I know, but air -conditioners are expensive!
So, did you buy a new AC?
I'm still mulling it over.
Get one, it's going to be so hot in the summer!
I know, but air -conditioners are expensive!
Once again, I want to thank RTM Rodionov and Maurizio CIO GNI.
