Okay today's expression is to lose sleep over something, to lose L -O -S -E, sleep, S -L -E -E -P, over something.
So to lose sleep, so normally when you sleep, how many hours do you get a night?
Some people get five, six, not enough.
Maybe a lot of you get seven hours, I hope some of you get eight, you're pretty lucky, nine, oh my God, yeah.
I'm guessing six hours, seven hours, is probably average, right?
Eh, probably. They say we should sleep between seven and eight hours.
So let's say, let's say you're a very healthy person and you go to bed at 10 PM and wake up at 6 AM everyday.
So that is eight hours of sleep.
Right? So if your schedule is the same, you can do that every day, and that's very healthy.
But sometimes in our lives things happen.
Maybe there's a tragedy, maybe there's extra work, maybe there's a celebration.
and because of that tragedy, or extra work, or celebration, we cannot go to bed at 10 PM.
We go to bed at 11 or 12, or sometimes we're in bed, but we're thinking about tomorrow, and the schedule, and the stress, and now it's 1 AM, 2 AM, finally you fall asleep and Boom, it's 6 a .m., you have to wake up.
You only slept four hours.
You lost sleep. Eight hours is normal.
If you only sleep seven hours, you lost an hour.
If you only slept four hours, you lost four hours of sleep.
Do you lose sleep often?
Over what? And I'll explain the over after we come back.
Check out the dialogue.
You look really stressed.
Jack's having a party!
No invitation! Ahh, that's nothing to lose sleep over.
He's not a nice guy anyway.
Yeah, I guess. Did you get invited?
Yeah. Huh? Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh.
Oh boy, yeah. So there's a party, you know, maybe this coming Friday night, there's a party and Jack is very popular person, he did not invite you.
So you're gonna be stressed, you're gonna be losing sleep over that and now your friend did get invited and you did not, you are not going to sleep, You are not going to Get some good rest get good relaxation.
You're going to be very stressed out To lose sleep over something because of something you cannot sleep But in daily English it doesn't just mean sleep it means have a lot of stress You look very stressed.
Yes. I'm losing sleep over my work.
I'm losing sleep over my relationship.
I'm losing sleep over the project because of the project because of the relationship because of whatever that's the idea and it means you are very stressed and actually it means that when you go to bed at night you are unable to fall asleep because you keep Thinking about the situation now normally.
It's a bad situation, but sometimes it's good Tomorrow's my birthday.
