The talk on idioms at the end was good, even for English speakers learning other languages. "Irregardless" was one I thought of, when a person is just supposed to use "regardless". When someone says, "I'm going to do this crazy thing, irregardless of the consequences.", as an English speaker, I have no idea what that might mean behavior-wise.

There can be a bit of a cultural barrier in delivery. I can't speak for every culture, but I've spoken to many Europeans who would say "you look tired" in a deadpan way. In their culture, this is honest and straightforward, but in most English-speaking cultures, this is rude. In English, you can absolutely tell someone that they look tired, but the polite way to do so is to deliver it in a manner that comes across as concerned for their well-being. The "are you okay?" should be implied if not asked as a follow-up.

Fishes technically isn’t incorrect English although it sounds awkward to most native speakers. It can be used if there are multiple species of fish. Also the word fishes is part of an older form of English so you will still hear/see it sometimes in certain contexts or older texts. For example the word fishes is heavily used in the King James Bible. However, most English speakers no longer speak this way conversationally.

I am from NYC the difficult part to explain to a nonnative when it comes to ‘how are you doing’ kind of questions is that most of the time we don’t care about the answer so we expect you wouldn’t either. For example when I say ‘how is it going’ I mean it as a greeting and expect to hear something like ‘fine thanks, have a good one’ I don’t expect to hear a monologue about how your life is going to date. While it may seem rude to preface that with a blunt observation like ‘you look old’ I think it would be much more effective in getting the answer you are looking for.

I grew up in the tri-state area around NYC and that's true, "how's it going" is definitely just a greeting. In fact, I usually just respond with "how's it going" in return when someone says that to me. But that's definitely something that seems to be localized around the NYC tri-state area. Because any time I say "how's it going" to my southern or mid-western friends, they always start to tell me about their day. I politely sit and listen because they're my friends. But I always have a bit of a chuckle about it in my head because I just meant "hey".

@@tomthecat9317 There are a couple contexual clues that can help. If it's the first thing said, it's most likely meant as a simple greeting not an actual greeting. Especially so if it is said quickly or in a bright and cheery way. But if greetings are already over with, and someone asks 'how are you doing' or some version thereof, they're genuinely asking. All that being said, I personally don't like using those sorts of questions as a mere greeting because of the ambiguity. So I have, on occasion, answered the question in an uncomfortable amount of detail on purpose. And if they give me grief about it, I reply 'you asked'. I only do this with friends/family of course. They do it a lot less now, at least with me, than they used to.

It’s because they always worry about people’s well being. “Have you lost weight?” or “Are you sick? You look tired and grey. Eat/drink X, Y, or Z!” or my favorite “You look fatter today. You’ve been eating better, then? Your husband must be feeding you - he’s such a good cook.”

No one says thou anymore but I wouldn’t go so far as to say thou is incorrect English. I would say it’s not conversational and discourage people from using it. Speaking of people, persons is a correct but not highly used plural form of person. I typically only encounter the word persons in legal and scholarly texts.

“I’m hard” in English would mean you have an erection. Your body is is physically hard. 😆 Hard can also mean “difficult” in English but when you are mentally going through a difficult or challenging time… it is the time that is hard, not you yourself. So the appropriate way to convey this with the word “hard” would be something like, “I’m having a hard time.” or more specific, “I’m having a hard time studying.” or you could say something like, “My family is going through hard times.”. Also, you can avoid this confusion by using different vocabulary instead of “hard”. You could use “difficult”, “challenging”, “stressful”, etc… and they would make it even more clear what you mean!

When I was at School, kids would say that someone is hard, meaning that they are strong or a good fighter. Generally all they meant was that they have a big mouth so I'm scared of them. The hardest person (one with the biggest mouth) would be the Cock of the School

@@MrSomename89 don’t get me wrong it’s not like your going to walk into a bar and get a date with a line like “you look old, let’s get out of here”

00:35 - fishes is also correct, but not in all cases. 01:21 - "why you are looking at me?"... Well, I have eyes... And I think that saying "you look tired" is not rude. You won't say something like this to strangers (simply because no one cares), but to your family members, friends or colleagues.. why not?

Everything they said about the "you look tired, you should go home" example is 100% spot on. With that said, I kind of wish it wasn't. There seems to be a very strong strain of passive-aggressiveness built into the UK-based cultures (UK, USA, Australia). They're definitely correct that if you notice someone looks tired and you say something like "oh man, I'm exhausted, how are you feeling" in the hopes they'll reciprocate it'll go over a lot better with most people. But I kind of wish that wasn't true. It adds this layer of dishonesty and deviousness to our every day conversations that I don't think needs to be there. I think you should be able to tell someone they look tired if you notice that, as long as you're doing it from a place of genuine concern. And I think people in our culture should maybe develop a bit more of a backbone to be able to take those kind of comments with grace.

What is hard?

Anyone notice how frequently the word 'like' is used these days?

I'm hard 😉😂

The guy sounds a lot like David Walliams.

The thing is, is it really a mistake if I'm a narcissist and I don't actually give a crap if I offend you or not?

i fixed like count from 666 to 667,you can thank me if that makes you happy or something idk😂

Older southern folk (from the U.S.) may also bring out the “thanks, god” in inappropriate situations. One time I was in the car with my nana and she turned going the wrong way down the highway, I started hollering and brought it to her attention so she drove over the median and got back on the right side of the street, then said “oh thank you god!” I was thinking, ‘nana… god didn’t save us from dying right there.. that was me!’

They really should have explained what the thing, that was said, meant. It makes it easier to learn, if you know, that you just said that you have a boner.

I'm hard alright

Need to fix some of the subtitles your editor is adding. Some words like "blanked" should have been "blanket". "Aesthetic" should have been "ecstatic".

i dont get it why telling someone "u look tired today" maight be offensive to someone. its a temporary state u can change by resting... someone is caring not teeling u u looks like shi*T

One of the things I have heard is that when some people don't wear makeup they have people tell them they look tired even though they aren't any more tired than usual. Then they feel like they always have to wear makeup or people will start commenting on how they look, and that can be annoying and objectifying. It's also the idea that you are assuming, instead of asking someone how they are you say that they seem a certain way. I would instead ask "How are you doing today?" and they can tell me if they think I should know. No need to beat around the bush so much like they did in this video

Black Americans use double negatives alot

They are not alone. It’s an old trait in many nonstandard varieties of English. It’s just not Standard English.

"Im hard" is also a ghetto term, meaning I am tough

yo why are they sweating too much tho

Why does the guys pants look very dirty on the top???

It's ironic that the American is the one who used the word “like” the least, the Brit was ok and the Aussie couldn't stop saying multiple times whenever she spoke. It's a disease word that causes others around you to pick it up. The Brit may have said it a little more because of the Aussie and the American might have only used it as a filler, connecting word because she kept hearing it used like that (instead of how I just used it). Of all the English faux pas in the video, overusing “like” they may she was is probably the worst.

Using "like" isn't a disease, it's a common practice English to use filler words or sounds to indicate that a thought or sentence isn't over but you need to pause but not stop. Stopping can cause confusion in casual conversations like this with multiple speakers because other people will often want to jump into a pause, assuming that it's a moment of silence needing to be filled. (Women especially use these words to try and avoid being interrupted because often times, even subconsciously, men will interrupt women more than other male speakers) Maybe you don't like the particular filler word being used and you'd rather just hear ums or ahs or "you know," but in every English speaking dialect these words crop up. Its just a sign of a more conversational style of speaking rather than a formal, prepared statement
