Hello everybody! Welcome back to daily EZ English expression.
It's December 2nd, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Everywhere you go. Well, not where I live.
I live in the desert.
Nothing but sand. Blue sky.
Yeah, actually it might rain today, which is pretty exciting, but it is December and You know, I've talked about this before I like Santa Claus.
Yeah, you know, let's not get religious December 25th is the day Santa Claus Ho -ho -ho Comes to my house and brings presents Gifts I hope This year from Santa Claus.
I want to receive a new fishing pole.
That would be excellent and a small seat so when I go fishing I can sit down.
That would be really excellent and maybe some hiking boots.
That would be awesome and a new car.
No I don't think Santa will get me a new car but yeah what about you?
Are you excited about the end of the year, Christmas, New Years, do you exchange gifts at this time of the year?
My birthday is December 22nd, so there's a reason to celebrate.
So even if you don't celebrate Christmas or New Year's Eve or New Year's Day on January 1st, you can still celebrate my birthday, December 22nd.
That's right, that's right.
Now, if you are going to be buying something for somebody, maybe your mom, your dad, your husband, your wife, your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your son, your daughter.
What are you going to buy them?
Are you gonna get them something really cheap, or, and this is today's expression, nothing but the best?
I'm going to buy my wife nothing but the best, nothing but the best, only the best. That was my dad 25 years ago.
He said to my mom, I'm going to buy you nothing but the best for Christmas.
My mom was so excited.
she was thinking maybe a diamond ring or an expensive jacket or maybe her own car and what did my dad buy?
He bought an excellent unbelievable really wonderful washing machine.
Yep. Nothing but the best. My mom cried.
I don't know if she was crying because she was happy or because she was disappointed, but anyway for sure the washing machine was the best and my dad promised my mom nothing Nothing but the best!
It's a great expression.
Only the best. Let's check out a dialogue.
