Easy English Expression, rehashed!
Hello everybody, my name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions.
Come on, let's master English!
Coach Shane here, how you doing Saturday morning?
And this is the song that I was singing.
Could've been the whiskey, might've been the gin could have been the three, four, six packs.
I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in.
Oh man, my head is like a football.
I think I'm gonna die.
Yeah. I had, uh, some whiskey.
I had some scotch last night.
Um, and it tasted really good.
So I had a second scotch and it was really, really tasty.
And like a fool I had, well, I didn't finish, but I started a third scotch and uh today i'm suffering not really but anyway check out today's expression let's go back in time oh today's expression uh yes it's it's a good one and it actually is perfect considering we studied on the rocks yesterday now if you studied the expression and then you drank some whiskey on the rocks, or vodka on the rocks.
I can't think of any alcohol.
If you did, if you drank too much, what happens?
Well, as you probably know, people get sick, and sometimes the next morning, they do not feel well.
Their head hurts, their stomach hurts, they just feel terrible.
It's It's because you drank too much and that is called a hangover.
A hangover. H -A -N -G -O -V -E -R.
So, why do we say a hangover when we refer to somebody who's feeling sick the day after they drank too much alcohol?
It's because this person may have thrown up.
And to throw up means to vomit.
Yeah, to lose all your food and drink in your stomach. So where is the cleanest place to vomit?
I'm sorry. Some people might say outside, but many people, if you're inside somebody's house, Many people choose to vomit in the bathroom, in the toilet.
And in order to vomit in the toilet, you must put your head where your butt goes.
you must hang your head over the toilet and vomit isn't that disgusting well that's what happens if you drink too much so remember do you want your head in the toilet do you want to hang your head over the toilet then perhaps you shouldn't drink let's check out the dialogue john is hanging his head over the toilet he's got a hangover oh did he eat something bad No, he drank too much last night.
Oh, poor John. Yep, if you're hanging your head over the toilet, life is not good.
Life is just not good.
You have a hangover.
Now, if it's because you ate something bad or you have a flu or you're sick, Oh, that's terrible.
No, that is not a hangover.
That's because you have a virus or you're sick.
A hangover simply means somebody who drank too much and is not feeling well.
Their head hurts, their stomach hurts, and perhaps they're vomiting in the toilet.
So please, everybody, if you drink, don't drink too much. Please, please, please, please don't hang your head over the toilet.
Check out the dialogue two more times.
