Hello everyone and welcome to this
week's Bizmates for Beginners. Today
everyone we are going to learn the
expression "out of this world." So stay
tuned to find out what it means and how
to use it, but before we get into that, do
you remember last week's expression?
Hopefully you do because we are going to
do a quick review. So everyone,
imagine I asked you: Did you
see the new smart phone? And of course
you saw it and it is very advanced. Okay
it's cutting-edge technology, and it's
much more powerful and efficient than
the previous model. So how do you say
that using the expression we learned
from last week? I'll give you five
seconds, OK? Are you ready?
Alright go!
OK and time is up. If you
said "Yeah, it's souped up" then that's
exactly right. Good job and thank you for
remembering the expression. OK everyone
moving on to "out of this world." Now this
is what I sometimes hear -- OK I'm
talking to Taro, my colleague, and last
night Taro and his really important
business client went out for dinner, and
they went to one of the best restaurants
in Tokyo. It's really luxurious and
probably really expensive. So I asked
Taro: Hey, Taro. So, how was the restaurant
last night? I hear it's an amazing
restaurant? And he says:
Yeah it was great!
OK, so yes this is fine -- "it was great!"
Yeah it's a pretty common expression, but
it's not really exciting right? It's a
little bit boring. Maybe we can use
something a little bit more interesting
to show just how great the restaurant
was, and in this case he can say...
Yes, was out of this world.
Okay? So whenever something is
amazing, it's fantastic and great, just
doesn't do it justice. Saying "great" just
doesn't really express the feeling
enough, you can say it was out of this
world, okay? So for example, this soup...
oh my goodness, you have to try this soup.
It is out of this world. Okay?
Alright so please remember this
and please use it for your daily
conversation, alright? Out of this world.
Now in terms of pronunciation, it's very
simple, but one small point this week.
When we say "out of" very quickly, it
becomes "outta" okay?
It's outta this world.
Alright so please repeat after me:
It's out of this world.
Your turn.
Exactly right. OK good, now after my
question: How was the restaurant?
Very good. It was out of this world. Okay?
Alright, so everyone so please remember
this for the review which we will have
next week. OK so our bonus question
this week everyone is another way to say:
"research the price of other companies."
This is pretty long, so if you know a
better way to say this, then you can
leave it in the comments below. If you
don't know what the answer is, it is in
one of our previous Bizmates for
Beginners video lessons.
So you can find the answer there. And
before we finish today, just a quick
shout out to Toshi, one of our most loyal
viewers, thank you so much for always
watching and supporting the channel,
Toshi. Alright and keep those comments
coming, okay everyone? We always look
forward to receiving those comments.
OK so that is it for me today, thank you so
much for watching everyone. Enjoy your
weekend and I look forward to seeing
you next time. Thank you.
