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. Thank you very much for listening.
Today's expression is Two -Faced.
Two -Faced. Somebody is Two -Faced.
Are you Two -Faced? Do you think Coach Shane is Two -Faced?
What does it mean to be Two -Faced?
T. W. O. Dash F. A.
C. E. D. Well two -faced means you have two faces but actually it means you have two personalities.
So, the idea is when let's say person A has he is is two -faced.
So, when he talks to us, he's very nice, but when he talks to other people, he says bad things about us.
He's not that nice.
Another example would be a politician.
Most politicians are two -faced.
When we see the politician, the politician says, I will do this, I am like you, I love you, I want you to have a good life.
But actually what does the politician do?
He doesn't do anything for us.
He only does things for him and his friends.
He's two -faced. Lots of Hollywood stars and singers are two -faced.
We have this image of the Hollywood star, but in reality, in real life, they're very, very different.
and I'm sorry to tell you coach Shane he's a little too faced too but I'll explain that after you check out the dialogue bill cosbys on I love him hey I'll turn it on why he's the greatest the cosmic Show he's still faced on TV.
He seems nice, but I've heard in person oh Boy yeah, bill cosby now bill cosby is a comedian in America.
He's a black comedian very funny guy I enjoyed him when I was young He was the host of a children's show the show was called fat Albert, and it was a cool show hey The Fat Albert Show, something like that.
Anyway, and then in the 1980's, he had a TV show called The Cosby Show.
Oh, it was a great show.
It was a black family.
He was a doctor, very successful family and everybody loved it, The Cosby Show.
He was like America's dad.
He was the perfect image of a perfect dad.
We love him, we loved him.
But recently we have found out and he has admitted that he was actually a bad guy.
He was a pretty bad guy with lots of women.
And well I'm not going to talk about it if you're interested.
You can search the internet for the terrible news about Bill Cosby.
And it's really terrible because so many people liked him.
So many people respected him.
so many people thought he was a great guy, but He was two -faced on television.
He showed us one personality But when the camera was off if there was a woman around him, oh boy.
Oh boy. Oh boy. He showed a completely different personality Have you heard of dr. Jekyll and mr..
Hyde? That's the situation.
One side of the person is very nice.
The other side is this horrible monster.
Once again, lots of politicians are like that.
Even talk show hosts like David Letterman, Oprah Winfrey.
People say that face to face, they're very, very nice, but in reality, they're not.
Yeah, I don't know.
I guess people are people, humans are humans and if you give enough money enough power to people, they'll do some bad things, not everybody I know, there are some great people that's for sure.
Now earlier I said that I was a little too faced and I kind of am.
I'm not an evil guy, I'm not a monster, but people when they listen to my podcasts or When they watch my videos, they think, oh wow, Shane, he's so funny, he's so active, he's so handsome.
He's so, what else, what else am I?
Extroverted, people think that, you know, I'm very active, extroverted, I talk a lot, but that's only true on the microphone and in front of the camera.
In real life I am Mr. Boring, extremely boring.
I never talk to anybody, I never do anything.
I just sit in a chair and stare at the wall, all day.
That's what I do. I count the bumps on the wall.
My wall is not smooth.
It has little bumps.
I count them. That's all I do every day.
extremely boring life.
I'm Too Faced. People think I'm really fun and exciting, but actually boring.
Now, everybody, be careful with the expression Too Faced.
When we use this expression, it is used as a negative description.
It's a pejorative expression.
If somebody is Too Faced, we do not like them.
So, is Co -Chained Too Faced?
Well, no, unless you are very disappointed that I am actually boring.
Then you could say I'm two faced.
Usually if somebody is two faced, one face.
They're very, very nice.
The other face. They're a monster.
They're terrible, okay?
So to be honest, is co -chain two faced?
Aw, not really. Is Bill Cosby two faced?
Unfortunately, yes, he is.
Can you think of anybody else that's two faced?
It's not a good thing.
It's a sad thing. You can leave a comment if you'd like but yeah This is an expression that we do need to know if your friend is acting too faced and sometimes friends do that You need to tell your friend.
Hey You're you're acting too faced don't do that, or we will no longer be friends you got it Yeah, it's true.
That's today's expression.
Check it out two more times and together let's master English.
