Hello everyone. Justin here and welcome
back to another Bizmates for Beginners
0:00:05.250,0:00:10.110
video lesson, where every week we
introduce a new idiom, phrase, or
0:00:10.110,0:00:15.240
expression that you can use in your
daily business conversation. And this
0:00:15.240,0:00:20.789
week everyone, we are going to learn:
"packed." OK so if you want to know how to
0:00:20.789,0:00:26.070
use it and what it means, please stay
tuned, but first everyone, that let's do a
0:00:26.070,0:00:31.980
quick review of last week's class.
Alright so imagine I say: I'm going to
0:00:31.980,0:00:37.680
make the proposal to the boss now!
So we came up with a really great idea
0:00:37.680,0:00:44.850
together, so I want to pitch it to our
boss. But you think that I'm acting too
0:00:44.850,0:00:50.070
quickly - the idea it's not quite right,
yet we need a little bit more time, so
0:00:50.070,0:00:56.910
you want to tell me: Please wait. Don't
be so quick, alright, don't act so hastily.
0:00:56.910,0:01:01.230
So how do you say that?
You've got five seconds. Are you ready?
0:01:01.230,0:01:02.340
OK go!
0:01:05.600,0:01:12.380
Alright, and time is up. So you can say:
Hold your horses. It's too soon. We
0:01:12.480,0:01:18.330
need a better plan. Alright so hopefully
you remember this. If you did, great job!
0:01:18.330,0:01:23.159
Well if you didn't, don't worry you'll
get it next time, alright? OK so let's
0:01:23.159,0:01:29.460
move on to: "packed." Now this is what I
sometimes hear... alright so it was a long
0:01:29.460,0:01:34.200
week and you know I'm feeling a little
bit tired, so I'm talking to my colleague
0:01:34.200,0:01:38.939
Taro, and I say: Taro, now let's go for a
drink this week sometime. I could really
0:01:38.940,0:01:44.060
use some time outside of the
office to relax and kind of take it easy.
0:01:44.420,0:01:51.899
Taro says: Oh sorry, Justin. My schedule
is too busy this week. How about next week?
0:01:51.899,0:01:57.930
OK, yes I understand how you are always
very busy, so no problem. Let's set it for
0:01:57.930,0:02:01.829
next week.
OK so "my schedule is too busy" - this
0:02:01.829,0:02:06.119
is fine, I understand what he is trying
to say, but when you are communicating
0:02:06.119,0:02:11.039
with some of your foreign colleagues or
coworkers, you might hear them say
0:02:11.039,0:02:16.740
something like: Sorry. My schedule
is packed this week. How about next week?
0:02:16.740,0:02:22.740
Alright, so if something is "packed" it
means it's really, really busy. So for
0:02:22.740,0:02:27.240
example: Wow, this restaurant is packed.
Alright, it means there's so many people,
0:02:27.240,0:02:33.750
there's no space. It's really busy.
It's packed, okay? So for example, if you
0:02:33.750,0:02:38.370
are really busy, you can say: yeah, my
schedule is really packed today. So you
0:02:38.370,0:02:43.760
don't have time for for another meeting,
for example, okay? It's packed.
0:02:44.020,0:02:50.340
Alright, so pronunciation - very simple: packed.
OK, so please repeat after me...
0:02:50.340,0:02:53.860
My schedule is packed this week.
Your turn.
0:02:56.120,0:03:00.240
OK, very good.
Alright now, in response to my question
0:03:00.240,0:03:05.440
and my sentence here: Hey, let's go for a
drink this week sometime!
0:03:09.040,0:03:10.620
Right. So sorry
0:03:10.700,0:03:14.780
my schedule is packed this week.
How about next week? Okay?
0:03:14.790,0:03:19.620
Alright so please remember this for next time.
OK everyone our bonus question is
0:03:19.620,0:03:24.180
another way to say: "in a hard situation."
