Hello everyone! Welcome back to another
Bizmates for Beginners video lesson

0:00:04.770,0:00:09.389
where every week we introduced a new
idiom, phrase, or expression that you can

0:00:09.389,0:00:14.179
use in your daily business conversation.
This week everyone, we are going to learn

0:00:14.179,0:00:21.300
when: (Something) Gets Heated. Okay, so maybe
you have an idea of what this means, but

0:00:21.300,0:00:25.560
if you want to stick around for the
details, please do so. But let's first

0:00:25.560,0:00:31.590
begin with a quick review of last week's
class. Alright everyone, so imagine I ask

0:00:31.590,0:00:37.770
you: What do people think about the new
concept? Unfortunately, people thought it

0:00:37.770,0:00:43.020
was a big failure. So how do you say that
using the expression from last week?

0:00:43.060,0:00:45.980
You've got five seconds. Are you ready?
Okay go!

0:00:50.100,0:00:52.700
Alright and time is up.

0:00:52.700,0:00:58.700
If you said: Unfortunately, it was a flop. Then
that's exactly right. Well done! Thank you

0:00:58.710,0:01:04.979
for remembering last week's class. Okay
let's move on to: (Something) Gets Heated.

0:01:04.979,0:01:11.909
Now this is what I sometimes hear. Okay
so I'm at the office and my good friend

0:01:11.909,0:01:17.130
and colleague Taro, he comes out of the
meeting room and you know his face is

0:01:17.130,0:01:23.850
red, his eyebrows are furrowed like this,
he doesn't look very happy. So I say: Taro

0:01:23.850,0:01:29.880
what's wrong? Are you okay? And that
seemed like a really tough meeting! Taro

0:01:29.880,0:01:37.439
says: Yes, the meeting was heat up. Okay
yes I can imagine what you mean. So maybe

0:01:37.439,0:01:42.329
things got very intense and maybe it was
a little bit aggressive and people were

0:01:42.329,0:01:47.780
going back and forth so it wasn't a nice
environment it was actually a very

0:01:47.780,0:01:53.340
uncomfortable environment. So he said the
meeting was heat up. Okay this is good,

0:01:53.340,0:02:00.630
but the better expression is this: Yes
the meeting got heated. Okay, not heat up,

0:02:00.630,0:02:05.640
the meeting got heated alright. So
whenever things are kind of aggressive,

0:02:05.640,0:02:10.920
let's say a discussion between you and
let's say your colleague. Okay

0:02:10.920,0:02:16.220
the discussion got heated. Okay what
in a very relaxing conversation she was

0:02:16.220,0:02:20.780
a little bit aggressive, kind of intense,
people are getting a little bit angry

0:02:20.780,0:02:26.720
and frustrated. Okay things are a bit
heated. Okay or things got heated, the

0:02:26.720,0:02:34.340
meeting got heated, the negotiations got
heated, the debate got heated. Okay

0:02:34.340,0:02:39.290
alright, so it's a very useful expression.
Now hopefully you don't experience this

0:02:39.290,0:02:44.299
too much and you have a nice peaceful
workplace. But if it happens you can use

0:02:44.299,0:02:50.540
this okay. So the pronunciation is as you
see here, so please repeat after me: Yes

0:02:50.540,0:02:53.380
the meeting got heated. Your turn!

0:02:55.320,0:02:57.960
Excellent, okay now after my question:

0:02:57.960,0:03:05.000
Hey, wow are you okay? That seemed like a
really tough meeting. Say: Yeah, the

0:03:05.000,0:03:09.769
meeting got heated. Okay I understand it
happens sometimes and you know if that

0:03:09.769,0:03:14.359
happens you just need to take a few
minutes. Cool down, just kind of relax and

0:03:14.359,0:03:19.910
go in again with a clear mind okay. Alright, so please remember this expression

0:03:19.910,0:03:25.519
for next time. Okay, so the bonus question
this week is another way to say: It is a

0:03:25.519,0:03:30.290
real good cost performance. If you know a
better way of saying this feel free to

0:03:30.290,0:03:34.250
leave it in the comments below. If you
don't know but you are curious we

0:03:34.250,0:03:38.269
covered it in one of our previous
lessons so take a look if you have the

0:03:38.269,0:03:43.340
time. Alright everyone so that is it for
us this week. Thank you always for

0:03:43.340,0:03:48.500
watching. Have a great week everyone and
I will see you next time. Bye bye!
