Hello everybody! My name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions!
Come on, let's master English!
Hello everybody! Welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression!
It's Tuesday, Tuesday morning where I am.
It is a rainy morning and the weather's not too bad.
It's much warmer, 45 degrees celsius not 45 degrees celsius 45 degrees fahrenheit 45 degrees celsius I would be dying yeah sorry about that go go to Google and find out 45 degrees fahrenheit is what in fells and felsiest jeez I can't speak today above blah blah blah blah.
So let's get to the English.
Today's expression, to get worked up about something.
To get GET worked W -O -R -K -E -D, worked up U -P about something.
So, to be worked up means to be excited.
To get worked up about something means to get excited about something.
but not only excited as in a happy way but it could be angered it could be bothered.
What gets you worked up?
For me people who complain about things in which they don't know anything about people who complain about stuff but actually they don't know the facts the truth the history the real story.
Yeah, people complain a lot.
The internet is a great place to see people complain, and people will complain about everything, absolutely everything.
And people get really angry.
They get really excited.
They get really bothered.
They get worked up about it.
It's true. yeah these days I I met a guy the other day and he was he was not a nice person he was he was rather he wasn't nice and he was also extremely overweight I mean he was giant he was very very unhealthy and he was mean and I got worked up after I left after I finished talking with him I'm in the car and I'm thinking and what this guy I got really angry, I got worked up about this guy.
Not only did he make me angry because he wasn't a very nice person, he was also treating himself horribly creating you know a really bad health situation for himself and in America I have to pay extra money because of these unhealthy people.
So I got really excited.
I got really worked up about this stuff.
I got really I started talking a lot my blood pressure went up.
I got angry. I got loud ah Yeah, I got worked up about it This is the idea of the expression Check out the dialogue Hey what are you so worked up about?
Timmy said my English was bad.
Oh, which Timmy your neighbor?
Yeah. Oh He's for he doesn't know don't let him bother you Yeah, it's this is actually a true situation You know somebody studies English, you know, maybe there's Spanish or they're German, you know, their their language is perfect They speak Spanish perfectly.
They speak German perfectly, but they're studying English They come to America.
They say something in English and then a little child says oh my god Your English is so funny That would make a lot of people angry, but hey if the kid is four years old Don't get worked up about it.
If the child is four years old Don't get worked up about it in this situation if it were me I would start speaking Spanish or German to the child, you know, very friendly and then I would explain I'm from Germany.
I don't know English very well, you know, whatever the situation is This is the idea don't get worked up about it.
People get worked up when somebody Criticizes them if I tell you You know something about your government or something about your country's economy or you know something like that You might get worked up about it.
You might get pretty angry.
Hey, what are you talking about coach?
Shane you don't know anything about my country Yes, that's exactly right And that's why I told you that I get worked up when people start criticizing things When they don't know what they are talking about.
That's what gets me worked up.
That's what gets me angry and excited People who are rude to me get me worked up People who cost me money because of those people I have to spend more money that work that that gets me worked up.
That gets me worked up what gets you worked up.
It's only Tuesday but Tuesday is one of those days when we're full of energy and if somebody you know bothers us we might get worked up.
So try and relax a little bit today but I would love to hear about something that gets you worked up.
