영어회화 레벨 three power english. Welcome to
the show. I'm Kristen Cho and I'm Cameron Word. It's interesting that I've heard of
actually people uh over enunciate. English. yes. Words like. Overly. You know but, I don't
recommend that. um. Especially if you're trying for a more American accent. yes yes. uh, We're
really lazy. We don't like to move our mouths. Right. It's very unclear, yeah, the words that
we're saying. Yeah so instead of like I heard a lot of Korean people say like UCLA. It
sounds I mean this is a very common example. And they sound they feel like they sound really
native by saying UCLA. yeah but of course you know just stick sometimes if you don't have the
perfect pronunciation. It's okay to just say UCLA. Yeah. You know that's better. I think, yeah, I
think, uh, many people worry about pronunciation but I think that of course you want correct to a
certain extent. yeah. You want to be understood. yes. But then after that, I think that it's not as
important as people want to think about it. That's right. Communication is, that's the most important.
is key. okay. So we're starting a brand new month and uh I just want everyone to know that I have
an Instagram account. yes. uh at the Kristen Cho. And you can direct dm or direct message me for a
free copy of our book. Yes. Because Power English comes with a book. That's true. So if you want
to read along as you're listening to the show. Message Kristen. We give out. How many books
per month? Uh, a lot. We give out a lot. But you only get one. Yes. So if you win one
month. It's over. No more for you. And what is your Instagram account? Mine is Cameron dot
Word. Perfect. Yes. All right. So, uh, we are going to the hair and nail salon. Oh, I need a
manicure. Oh I need a haircut. I need a perm. Uh, what can we do for you today? Yes.
And this is a question that the stylist always 오늘 어떻게 해줄까요? Yeah. All right. It's the same
thing. What can we do for you today? Yes. So this is uh, the Korean phrase always confused me. Yeah,
어떻게 오셨어요? This is uh. In Korea, it was really
difficult for me to understand. But this phrase, what can we do for you today,
is very similar. Yes. It's basically. What do you want? What do you want? What
do you want? Yes. 어떻게 오셨어요? 어떻게 해줄까요? Okay. Uh, here we've got some expressions here.
Yes. Uh get dolled up. D-o-l-l-e-d. Yes. So this means to get well like dress well or you know put
makeup hair on. do your hair well. as usually for some kind of event. Okay. and it's most often used with women. All right. Uh knock someone's socks off. This means that oh you're looking
so good or you're so impressed by this person that your socks 퓨~ come off. Wow.
Okay. put one's best foot forward. This means that you're trying to do your best
putting your best effort into whatever action or maybe your image, yeah, trying to look
as good as possible. All right. so let's go ahead and listen to our uh dialogue.
And we're at the hair and nail salon. Gabby. Hi. It sounded like you had a last-minute
event to go to and those are never good well. I'm going to my class reunion tonight. I wasn't
going to go but my business trip was canceled, so. So you decided to get dolled up and
go to the party with your old friend. Well, it has been 20 years. So how bad
could it be? When I'm done with you, you're going to knock your classmate's socks
off. I at least want to put my best foot forward. Here we go. So Orson begins by saying Gabby, Hi.
It sounded like you had a last-minute event to go to and those are never good. So uh she called,
yes, and the hair, this is the hair stylist. And the, she had a last-minute event. So it
was unexpected. Yeah, all of a sudden. All of a sudden. I have to go to a really important dinner.
mm-hmm. uh-huh. So what does gabby say? Well, I'm going to my class reunion tonight. I wasn't
going to go but my business trip was canceled, so. Okay, I'm going to my class reunion tonight.
Yes. So class reunion is our power vocabulary. What is this? This is in Korean I believe it's
동창회? yeah, like it's where all of the people that you went to school with. You meet them again.
Usually for a party. I think these are more common in Korea. Actually, yes, in America, we have one
every 10 years or so exa that's the point that I wanted to make the 동창회 is a big thing like at
least once a year. It seems for a lot of people. But you have to understand that in America.
It's maybe happens every 10 years or 20 years like by the decade. Right Right. So it's a
big event. Right. I had my 10-year reunion, yeah, two three years ago. Did you go? No, No, I
mean I was here. so, right, I couldn't go. but, yeah, I don't know. Nowadays people don't even
really care. Yeah, I don't I don't know I've never been to a class reunion. I didn't like
my people in high school. Why I don't want to see him again. All right, so, uh I wasn't
going to go but my business trip was canceled so she was going to go on a business trip. It
canceled now she's going to the reunion, right, and Orson says. so, you decided to get dolled up
and go to the party with your old friend. yes, so you decided to get dolled up. So, if a woman
gets dolled up, yes, so the word d-o-l-l 인형, yeah, you might think like what is that doing
in there? I mean it kind of is connected in the sense that have you ever seen an ugly doll, uh,
they're usually really pretty, yeah that's right, with pretty clothes, yeah they're pretty
clothes on, they've got their makeup done, their teeth their teeth are straight, yeah hair
is perfect, yeah, so in the same way especially for women to get dolled up means to do your hair
really well make your me like do fancy makeup, yeah, wear makeup, nice clothes, uh so it seems
like you're going to a special event. yeah so basically if you're getting dolled up maybe you're
you may even get a professional uh for weddings for sure you probably would get dolled up. yeah
well yeah yeah probably. yeah if you're well not I mean even like the mother-in-law and the
mother and all of them all get dolled up. right, right. Um so here it's just put that extra
makeup on and just make yourself look nice. Uh, so what does Gabby say? Well, it has
been 20 years, so how bad could it be? Okay, now this is interesting. It's been 20 years. okay
it's a 20-year reunion. wow, that's a long time. Now the pattern is so how bad could it be.
What is this asking? So how bad could it be means that it couldn't be terrible, right?
It's not going to be bad, right? It'll be fine. That's the feeling. It'll be okay. It'll be okay,
right? Yeah, It'll be okay right. So don't focus on the word bad. Actually, it's not. It's pain.
It's saying like actually it's not gonna be that bad. Yeah, right. Okay, so, Orson says when
I'm done with you. You're going to knock your classmates socks off. yes, When I'm done with
you. It means when I do your hair, do your makeup maybe, your makeup maybe, then you're going to
knock your classmates socks off. Yes. If you knock someone with the socks off. What? What? it's just
a strange expression. It is a strange expression. First I'll give you the meaning. Okay it means
to impress someone a whole lot. But the feeling is like maybe like a cartoon, yeah, like those
old-timey cartoons where the there's like a a boy wolf and a girl wolf, yeah, and the girl wolf
looks really pretty and the boy wolf season goes like he's just so thinks he's so pretty, yeah,
like and his socks fly off, oh, cause he's he thinks she looks so beautiful. oh. That's the
feeling of this expression. I like it. Okay, so it's like wow. yeah, you know, wow that's amazing.
yeah, okay, so Gabby says I at least want to put my best foot forward. so if you want if Gabby
wants to put her best feet forward. What does she want to do? She wants to look as good as possible.
Let's say you have a bad foot. Your foot's really ugly. Oh, no. You don't want that in a picture.
No. She put it behind you. Okay. And then you put your good foot forward. Okay. That's not the
real meaning but that's a good way to think of it. You want your best side to show. That's right. Okay.
So to put your best foot forward. Yes. All righty. Uh, let's go ahead and listen to that dialogue
one more time. Gabby hi it sounded like you had a last-minute event to go to and those are never
good. well I'm going to my class reunion tonight I wasn't going to go but my business trip was
canceled so. So, you decided to get dolled up and go to the party with your old friend. Well it has been
20 years, so how bad could it be? When I'm done with you. You're going to knock your classmates' socks
off. I at least want to put my best foot forward. it's time for power note.
We're on pages 10 and 11.
So let's take a quick review of these expressions. Get dolled up means to be really well dressed
and groomed. Yes. Which means get your hair done get, you know, put that extra
makeup on. yeah, brush your teeth. brush your teeth. Yes, good idea. that extra mile,
you know, that extra or floss your teeth. yeah, okay, uh wear that special dress. get dolled up.
yes. all right. what are you all dolled up for? well, maybe I should do this one. What are you all
dolled up for? Okay, I have a date with Brad tonight. I have to look my best. So usually when you go
on a date. Maybe it's your first or second date. you want to make it a good impression. yes, you're
gonna get dolled up. Right. You know one time. What? I used to teach English private lessons. Okay. I don't
teach it anymore. Yeah. I was teaching this girl. All of a sudden one day, she comes to me, like,
a really nice dress. she's all dolls. she's got makeup. I think she went to the 미용실
the beauty salon and got her makeup and hair done. wow, wow, I was like, oh, why are you so dolled up?
uh-huh, she goes I'm breaking up with my boyfriend. she was breaking up with her boyfriend. And she
wanted to look dolled up, like, see, look what you're gonna miss. oh, yeah, What a great idea! yeah, What
a great idea! so you begin and end a relationship by getting all dolled up. What a great idea! Okay.
Betty got dolled up for her sister's wedding. Yes. Weddings generally people dress really
nicely. Sure. I will say, though. Korean weddings obviously the bride and groom are will
it really well dressed in their family. yeah, Sometimes, I know, some of the guests are not
as dolled up. No, and they should be in my opinion. I think it's kind of respect a little bit. I
mean yeah it depends on the kind of, you know, whatever traditions you have. yeah, but uh usually
weddings, sometimes graduations, engagement parties, uh, what else might you get dolled up for? Um, you
know, I don't know, like, a conference. Yes, yes, so not business attire where you would normally wear
just regular nice clothings. but like conference if you're giving a speech. and you're going
to be on stage. maybe you very particularly would wear something nice and do your hair well. I
don't even remember the last time I got dolled up. Yeah, I'm like in casual clothes all the
time. I work by myself. Nobody has to see me. So I'm just kind of like wearing whatever I
want to wear. Just pajamas. Yeah, pajamas. Right now everyone, Kristen's in a shower robe. She just like
stepped out of the shower and came to the studio. Just kidding, just kidding. knock someone's socks
off means that you are really like impressed overwhelm or excite someone. Okay, so let's see
how it's used. How did the presentation go mike? I'm pretty sure I knocked their socks off. They
signed the contract immediately. So in this case, it doesn't have anything to do with the looks. No
it's more like, oh, it's very impressive you did a wonderful job. Wow, that was an amazing presentation.
Bravo. Tell me where to sign the contract. yes, yeah, yeah, that's right. That's how you can knock
someone's socks off. Your band was amazing. You really knocked everyone's socks off. mm-hmm. So this
is the band just sounded so good. They were so cool. They knocked their socks off. Yeah, so, in this case
in the dialogue we used it for physical appearance. which definitely we could use but if you did a
really great job. Yes, uh, if you really impressed someone. You really could knock their socks off.
Yes. And I would say this does sound a little bit jokey now. I would say my father's generation
and above, yeah, use this expression very seriously. But the kids these days, anyone probably 45 and
under I would say it's kind of like well you just knocked my socks off. So, what would you say
instead Cameron? You blew them away. Oh, blew them away. To blow someone away is just impressed them
so much. That's a good alternative. Yeah, yeah, it's still used, yeah, uh, but it does feel a little
jokey. a little old. not old. just jokey. okay yeah He knocked those socks off. It's cute. It's cute. Now
How about this one? To put your best foot forward. This means to basically show a good version of
yourself. Yes. The perfect version. Yeah. The best The best it can be. yes. Uh, you want to do this one? Yeah.
I'm meeting Carol's parents tonight. Any advice? Yes, just try to put your best foot forward also
don't talk too much. Oh, that's hard. I talk a lot. you talk a lot. Yes, so whenever you are basically
having a job interview. When you are meeting your boyfriend or girlfriend's parents for the first
time. Yes. Uh, when you the first day of work. All of those things you want to put your best foot
forward. You want to give them a good impression. Right. You're not lying necessarily. But you're
just trying to look the best you possibly can. Right. Okay. You have to put your best
foot forward when you talk to the voters. Yeah, you have to make sure that you
show them you're a good candidate. Kind of hide the bad parts of your personality.
Yeah, so, it is basically like just giving a good impression. Yes, our power pattern today is blah
blah blah blah so how bad could it be? Oh it's not that bad. It's not that bad. Okay, it only
rained a little bit so how bad could it be? The economic news wasn't the worst I've ever seen
so how bad could it be? Yeah. It can't be that bad. It can't be that bad. I will say sometimes this
is used as a joke where something's really bad. Yeah. But you're pretending like it's not a big
deal. For example. It's like oh if we're talking about economic news, the inflation rate is only 20%.
Yeah. How bad could it be? So you're using sarcasm. Yeah, it's kind of a sarcastic. As a joke. Yeah. Got
it. All right. Our Power Vocab is class reunion. Yes. And you can check out the definition
on page 12. Let's thank our sponsor. All righty and please go over to 오디오 어학당 and please check us out there. Yes, we'll see
