Easy English Expression, rehashed!
Hello everybody, my name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions.
Come on, let's master English!
TGIF! Thank God it's Friday.
Coach Shane here. I hope you had a good week and I hope you have an even better weekend.
And I hope you are not a victim to today's expression.
Enjoy it. Let's go back in time.
Sneak attack. Sneak attack.
S -N -E -A -K -A -T -T -A -C -K.
A sneak attack. Now, this expression can be very funny, but it can be really horrible and scary, too.
So the idea of a sneak attack is to attack somebody or to scare somebody in a very surprising way.
So the perfect example would be my sister when she's drinking milk.
I hear her drinking milk and I walk behind her very quietly, closer and closer.
I can hear her drinking milk and I get closer and closer, closer, closer.
Closer. Ha! And my sister, her milk goes spraying everywhere.
The milk actually comes out of her nose.
Yes. Beautiful. So funny.
That's a sneak attack.
Yeah. Like I said, some sneak attacks can be really funny.
But this expression actually comes from war.
Yeah, so as you can imagine, in war, if you want to defeat your enemy, a surprise attack or a sneak attack can be very effective.
Unfortunately, in war, people die.
And usually, especially nowadays, it's not the leaders who die.
It's the innocent people.
A long time ago in history, the leaders died too.
But not anymore. Uh, yeah.
And I'm not going to get political.
Anyway, let's check out the dialogue.
And the dialogue is about a funny situation, okay?
This cat video is so funny.
Oh my god, look at him fly.
it's brother made a sneak attack oh brothers can be so mean okay now this is a video and i know this we're listening to a podcast you're listening to a podcast but i'm going to give you a link to a video listen carefully and just go to youtube www .youtube .com And for people in China, ask a friend to help you with this link.
This is so funny. And actually, if you're a listener from China or from a country and you do not have access to this video, let me know.
I will find a way so that you can enjoy this video.
But if you have YouTube, do this.
go to youtube and search for bnlu75jljiy no that's that's wrong now you have to listen carefully because youtube is very sensitive capital b small n small l small u seven five capital j small l capital j small i capital y do you understand that so capital means a big so you know like the big a and a little a so if you write somebody's name alan it should be big a or capital a l a n and of course l a n are all small letters so let me give you the address again just go to to YouTube and search for this, you'll find the video, okay?
So once again, capital B, small N, small L, small U, seven, five, capital J, small L, capital J, small I, capital Y, okay?
Like I said, if you cannot find this video, which is so funny, it's about a cat and its brother attacks.
It's a sneak attack.
It's a brilliant video.
It's so funny. If you cannot find it, then send me a message and I will make sure that you get to watch this video.
And be honest, if you have a chance to sneak attack your friend, do you do it?
Will you do it? Are you going to do it?
take a video and tell us and show us and share it let's check out the dialogue again this cat video is so funny oh my god look at him fly its brother made a sneak attack oh brothers can be so mean this cat video is so funny oh my god look at him fly its brother made a sneak attack attack.
