Easy english expression rehashed.
Hello everybody.
My name is coach shane and welcome to easy english expressions.
Come on, let's master english.
Hello everybody.
Coach Shane here.
How you doing today?
I have a cold.
Yeah, not feeling that great.
But I wouldn't miss the opportunity to say hi to you.
And we've got a great, of course, every time we have a great expression today, eCubed number 367.
Enjoy.
Let's go back in time.
Today's expression is very good.
It is a sticky situation.
I am in a sticky situation.
This is a sticky situation.
What is a sticky situation?
It is a dangerous situation. or a very difficult situation.
Another word, a little bit difficult, is a conundrum.
You're in a situation where if you do this, it's not good.
If you do that, it's not good.
Ah, it's what do you do?
What do you do?
You're in a sticky situation.
You want to do good, but you know, if you do this, this person will be angry.
If you do that, another person will be angry.
It's not easy.
It's a sticky situation.
You must be very, very careful.
If you come across a sticky situation.
And in our dialogue, we have a perfect sticky situation.
Check it out.
I think I saw Becky's boyfriend with another woman.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
He was kissing her.
Oh, my God.
Did you tell Becky yet?
Oh, no.
This is a very sticky situation.
The woman was Becky's roommate.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
What would you do?
So you have a friend.
Her name is Becky.
And Becky has a boyfriend.
But you saw that boyfriend...
Not only with another woman, but kissing another woman.
And that other woman is actually Becky's roommate.
Oh my goodness.
Of course, you know, me personally, I would want to say something.
You know, your boyfriend is cheating with another woman.
But at the same time, it's the roommate.
So this is dangerous.
It's confusing.
It's going to cause lots of problems for Becky.
Oh, boy.
It's not a situation.
I would want to be in that situation. is a sticky situation.
You never want to be in a sticky situation.
And if you are a good person, please do not cause a sticky situation.
It's not easy, I know.
You know you want to be nice to everybody, but sometimes, if you're too nice to everybody, you do cause sticky situations for other people.
Yeah, it's not easy.
The only thing to do is to do your best.
To don't lie, to don't lie, to not lie, to not lie, to speak good English.
I mean, to speak English well.
No, the only thing you can do is be a good person.
Don't lie, keep your morals, be ethical.
What else can you do?
Yeah, you want to try and help people.
But sometimes if people cause the problems, sometimes, I'm sorry, sometimes you shouldn't help.
You don't have to help everybody.
Let those people deal with their situation.
If they did something bad, let them deal with the badness that will come.
You can't save everybody.
You can't solve everybody's problem.
Just do your best.
Be good.
Be honest.
Have some morals.
Be ethical.
And maybe, if you're lucky, you will never be in a sticky situation.
Seriously, I hope you are never in a sticky situation.
That's today's expression.
Can you think of a sticky situation that maybe you were in or that you are in?
Well, I would love to hear about it and so would everybody else.
