So on Monday in DDM VIP, we are starting a new episode, which will take us five, six, probably six weeks to finish.
So it's a great time to begin.
You can start any time.
But this is really a very good time.
So again, www .letsmasterenglish .com is our website slash free for the free lessons.
Okay, today's word it is great.
It is flimsy, flimsy.
F L I M S Y. It's an adjective.
If something is flimsy, the quality is no good.
You start to use it and it breaks.
This is the idea. So a couple Several months ago I bought a stand for my camera, for my iPhone actually so that I can use my iPhone for live Facebook and live YouTube lessons which we're doing.
Anyway I bought this stand for my iPhone and it didn't feel very strong.
I connected my phone and I moved it to the front of my computer and it broke.
It broke right away, it was so flimsy.
So I was able to put it back together but now it doesn't feel tight and I think it's going to break again.
I paid like, I don't know, $12 for this stand and it is so flimsy.
It's terrible, it's too weak.
It's a piece of garbage.
I wasted $12. Flimzy.
Super weak, super low quality.
I use it and it breaks.
Check out the dialogue.
A new desk? Yeah. The last one was no good.
Two flimsy. Oh, didn't you pay a lot for it?
No, it was cheap. this one is much better that happened to me also my goodness I bought a desk at online and I don't know I paid like a hundred and fifty dollars for the desk now in America 150 dollars for a desk is not too much money for me though it was pretty good money so I got the desk and I put it together yeah it's a DIY do it yourself.
I put the desk together and it did not feel good.
I was afraid to put my computer on the desk.
So I used it for writing and I had some books on there.
And when I moved from Las Vegas to Chicago, we picked up the desk and the leg fell off.
It completely broke.
It became useless. It was so flimsy.
It was so flimsy It was so weak the quality was so bad that it broke.
This is the idea Now I have a much stronger desk Unfortunately, I had to pay a lot more money, but my computers are safe Do you have anything that is flimsy?
Maybe some furniture Maybe you bought something used and you can feel that the quality is not that good, that it might break, maybe you bought a used fishing reel or oh god forbid a used bicycle and you're riding the bicycle and it just doesn't feel that safe, be careful.
flimsy things, they break.
Hopefully, you don't spend a lot of money.
But sometimes, flimsy things can be dangerous and you can get hurt.
So if you have something flimsy, maybe you should just get rid of it and save your money and get something that has good quality.
Flimsy, F -L -I -M -S -Y.
It's an adjective. It means weak, not good.
low quality and if something is flimsy it will usually break.
That's today's expression.
It is Friday everybody.
I hope that you have a super weekend.
