Thank you so much. Today's expression is very good.
To have no say, to What does this mean?
Well let me ask you a question.
Let's say there's an English expression that you want to learn.
Can you ask me, can you tell me, tomorrow Shane, teach me this expression.
Well, my response is you have no say.
You have no say, in what I do tomorrow.
for the podcast. For the E -Cube video you do have say but for the podcast you have no say.
Sorry. So what does that mean you have no say?
That means you have no influence.
No matter what you say I will not listen to you.
You will not influence my decision that's the idea so you have no say is that a nice expression well not really but it's true I mean think about it when you go to school do you have any say and what you want to study now the teachers decide now when When you go to the University, you can choose your classes.
So you have say and what you want to study, but in the class you have no say.
The professor decides.
Right? Let's check out a dialogue.
I'm going to major in philosophy.
What? Did you ask your parents?
They have no say. Uhhh aren't they paying for your education?
Heh! Yeah, so? Oh boy, yeah, do you remember?
Well, it's been a long time since I went to college.
Now, when I went to the university, I paid for my education.
So, what I studied was MY decision.
My mom and dad, they did not pay for anything - it was MY decision.
education, but most kids are lucky and their parents help them out for college.
So, boy, if your parents are paying for your education, should they have say in what you are studying, should they be able to decide what you study?
Should they be able to influence you in what you study?
That's a good question.
I'll tell you this.
If I were paying for my child's education, absolutely I would say what the child is studying.
Absolutely! It's my money.
You study what I say you should study.
I would have complete say in what my child studies in where my child studies and where my everything if I'm paying for it I have complete say do you agree or disagree so you know these uh these podcasts they're completely free because they're free you have no say actually I already have all of my podcasts written that's why you have no say.
But when it comes to my videos, oh yes, we have E cubed easy English expression videos on YouTube.
You can watch those on my website too.
Those are new, new videos.
So, if there's an expression that you want to learn, then you're going to have to leave me a message because you do have some say in what we studied in the videos.
That's today's expression.
Thank you once again so much for listening to this podcast, please tell your friends have a fantastic weekend It's still Sunday for almost all of you and together.
