Hello and welcome to Eat Sleep Nightmare English. We are going to be taking you through five

super scary idioms. To ghost someone is to end a romantic relationship suddenly and without

telling the other person. Basically you stop calling them. That sounds mean. It's terribly

mean. But why would someone do that? Maybe they are scared of commitment. A commitment-phobe

if you will. Or maybe they found someone else. Someone better. Have you ever ghosted anyone?

No, I prefer to break up with people in person. So I can watch the tears fall down their cheeks.

And lick their tears? Yes, and lick their tears.

If you say you could murder something it means you really want this thing. This usually refers

to food or drink. On a summer's day you might say 'I could murder a cold glass of Coca Cola'.

Or any other named brand beverage. Is there anything you want right now? Yes, I could

murder a pint. Me too! Another phrase that we use that's very similar to this is I'm

dying for something. It means we really want this. The difference is we can use it for

more than just food and drink. For example 'I'm dying for the loo.' That's not what you

said in rehearsal. You said I was dying for a ****. I did not. Anyway we don't use that

kind of profanity on Eat Sleep Dream English. What, you mean you don't say **** ***** ****** **** ****.

Our forth idiom refers to pain. If you say something is killing you, it means it's causing

you physical or emotional pain. For example after a long walk you might say 'My feet are

killing me'. This means they are causing you pain. Yes, or if you have a headache you could

say 'My head is killing me.' Is it literally killing you? Is it ending your life? No, it's

an idiom. I'm not an idiot. An idiom, not an idiot. You are the idiot. Our final word

is gutted. This is an informal adjective which means very disappointed. For example if you

fail a test or if your team loses in a sports match you might be gutted. When was the last

time you felt gutted? When **** ******* died in Game of Thrones. Oh yes just like when

**** ******** dies in the Walking Dead. Thank you for watching, now watch our other video.
