'I can see clearly now' 👀 - In Focus / Vision / Sight / 👓 English Addict EXTRA -🔴Live Lesson

The sun is out,

the sky is almost blue, but not quite.

At least it isn't raining.

Hello, everyone.

We are back together again.

English addict is with you, live

from the birthplace of the English language.

Which just happens to be.

Well, you know where it is.

I know where it is.

But for those who don't know where it is, it's England.

Hi, everybody.

This is Mr.

Duncan in England.

How are you today?

Are you okay?

I hope so. I hope you're feeling happy.

Well, this isn't going to work, is it?

Let's face it.

This is not working already.

I realise that I can't see a thing.

I thought today I would do something that I've never done before.

I am not wearing my glasses on my live stream.

And I have to say, I think it might already be a mistake because I can't see anything.

I will try to do

it for a little bit longer, but I don't think it's going to work.

Hi, everybody.

This is Mr. Duncan, by the way. Here I am.

Can you see me?

It says my name underneath there as well.

At least I think it does, because everything around me is blurred.

And that leads me on to today's subject.

What we are talking about on today's live stream is all

about that particular thing.

Sight things to do with sight.

Your vision, the way we see the things we see,

the way in which we see things around us.

And of course, all the words and phrases connected to that as well.

It is a lovely day today.

We have some nice weather you can see behind me, although I can't see it.

Everything is out of focus

because of course I am not wearing my glasses,

which might be a very silly thing to do.

that's better.

I can see you now.

There you are.

Thank goodness for that.

I was worried for a moment there

that you wouldn't be able to see me.

But you can see me and I can see you.

And it is lovely, by the way, to have you here today.

Thank you very much for joining me.

Isn't it lovely?

Hello to the live chat.

We have the live chat here as well.

I'm going to say hello to all of my viewers.

If you are here for the first time, please let me know if it is your second time here.

Please let me know as well.

Hello, Tube trays.

Guess what, Beatrice, you are first on today's live chat.

Congratulations to you, Beatrice.

By the way, we are using a different camera today.

Things are slightly different for one particular reason.

I'm not going to tell you what it is, but there is.

There is something going on here in the studio at the moment.

And that's all I'm saying for now.

I don't want to spoil the surprise, you see.

English addict is with you.

And yes, we have made it all the way to Wednesday.

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

You do. We do believe. We do. We do.

Wednesday is here

and I'm very pleased to see that it has arrived again

because it means that we are very close to Friday.

Are you looking forward to Friday?

I think most people are.

We are now halfway through November and I have a feeling

that this time of year, especially if you live in this part of the world

where the days become shorter and we have very long and cold nights.

Yes, winter is approaching.

And I have to say today it does feel rather cold.

I think it's only about nine degrees, nine Celsius today.

And that does not feel very warm at all.

If you want my opinion on it, here's a word

and I sometimes like to show you a word.

And today I'm showing you a word because that's what I'm here to do.

Here's an interesting word.

Manipulate. Look at that.

That is a big word.

It also happens to be a very interesting word.

2 minutes late, something if you want to change the shape

or if you want to change the appearance of something

to move something

from one position to another,

quite often with your hands, perhaps you manipulate something

using your hands, you might change the shape of something.

So quite often when we say manipulate,

we are changing the form or the shape of something.

Of course, there are other ways of using the word

manipulate in general tense,

especially when we are talking about the way in which people behave towards each other.

It is possible for one person to manipulate

another quite often

into a different way of thinking or looking

or maybe if you are trying to deceive someone as well,

you might manipulate that person.

You are trying to change the way

they think or the way they see the world around them.

So quite often we do use this word.

You might hear it used, for example, in politics,

maybe a politician is trying to manipulate

the people they are talking to by saying

certain things in a certain way.

Maybe they add information,

maybe they take information away.

Maybe they hide something from people they are talking to.

So the word manipulate it is often used.

Well, you can use it figurative in a figurative way.

I suppose if you are talking to someone, maybe in relation ships. Yes.

A very modern

word that we often use is gaslight.

If you gaslight someone,

you manipulate their their mental health.

You make them believe that things around them are not as they see them.

Quite often in relationships.

One partner might manipulate the other.

They might say things or do things that makes that

particular person see the world differently.

And yes, it can happen quite often in human nature.

This is something that human beings do quite often.

They often manipulate each other.

They will try to change the way

in which another person sees something.

Quite often in the media as well,

people often say that certain news outlets,

or maybe a certain broadcaster manipulates the information.

Maybe they change the way in which people see things.

So the word manipulate is a word

that has many uses,

not only literal in the sense

of changing the shape of something quite often using your hands

to change the form of something.

But also if you want to change the way in which a person

sees the world around them as well,

you manipulate that person or that thing.

So there it was.

Today's word, and I suppose I could call it the word of the day.

It is a word that's been used recently quite a lot for various reasons.

Arielle Castella, hello to you.

Thank you very much for your super chat.

It's not very nice.

There is a song by Johnny Nash called

I Can See Clearly Now. yes,

I can see clearly now.

The rain has gone.

I can see your obstacles in my way.

You mean that one?

Do you mean that song?

Yes, it is a very famous song.

Very well known.

Thank you, Ariel, for your super chat today.

You are welcome to make a small donation on the Super Chat if you feel like it.

You don't have to, but if you feel like it,

I'm not going to stop you.

So today we are looking at a very interesting

group of words and expressions

all connected to

site.

The way we see things,

the way we view the world around us.

Maybe words connected to sight, maybe the way we see.

Maybe the process of actually seeing.

And you may have noticed, I do wear glasses.

I have worn spectacles

since I was around seven years of age.

And it's very strange the way I found out

that I needed glasses because it school.

I had difficulty seeing the blackboard in front of me.

And because of that, my learning fell back.

And the teacher actually knew that I was having difficulty.

They noticed it and they were trying to work out why I was having difficulty in

some of my classes.

And the reason was I couldn't see the blackboard

because I was sitting too far back.

So as a temporary solution

and this is something that actually happened,

the teacher well, one of the teachers in one of the classes

put my desk right in front,

right next to the blackboard.

So I was sitting right in front of the blackboard.

In fact, it was right in front of my face.

So I could see the the writing

that the teacher had put on the blackboard.

It's true. It is.

And that's how I found out that I needed glasses.

So my mother took me to the optician.

Now, here we call the person

who looks after your eyes the optician.

I know in America, in the United States, they call them optometrists.

So an optometrist is the same as an optician.

So here we call them that opticians is what we call them.

So that is what

we call a person who looks after your eyes.

So I wear glasses.

And as I mentioned at the start of today's livestream,

my eyesight is very poor.

I have bad eyesight.

Some people can see things far away,

but they can't see things nearby.

Some people can't see anything far away,

but they can see things nearby.

That is me, by the way.

I am short sighted, which means that

my eyes cannot focus far away.

So anything further away than just

two or three feet I have difficulty seeing.

In fact, over the years,

my eyesight has got much worse.

A lot worse than it used to be.

Can I say hello to Vitesse? Hello, Vitesse.

Sadly, you weren't first today.

You were second.

So I suppose that's not too bad.

Also, we have more. See?

Hello, Mauricio.

Nice to see you as well.

You dome also.

we have.

Luis Mendez

is here today. Hello, Luis.

Nice to see you here as well.

Yes, I'm using some some different equipment today.

So that's why maybe.

Maybe I look slightly different.

The colour perhaps is slightly different, but I am here as well.

Do not worry.

I used to hide my glasses when I was a child

because I did not want to wear them, says Palmira.

I and I'm going to be honest here.

I like to be honest with you.

I have never worried about wearing glasses.

It's never actually bothered me.

I know it's school.

Some of the kids, some of my classmates,

some of the even children at school used to call me names.

They used to call me Four Eyes.

It's not very nice, is it?

For eyes, goggle eyes.

That's it, really.

So I did get picked on slightly at school, but then they used to pick on me for everything.

So it was kind of in the mix, as it were.

But yes, wearing glasses can be can be awkward for some people.

Some people don't like wearing glasses.

Some people don't want to wear glasses.

I know one person who definitely does not like wearing glasses.

Can you guess who it is?

Yes, you guessed right,

Cristina.

I bought my first pair of glasses a few days ago

just to read some books because I couldn't read

closely or close up.

That is a common thing that happens as you get older.

You often find that you can't see

things that are close to you.

You can't see things that are nearby.

Eye And this is something that happens to many people over a certain age

because your eyes become a little weak because of old age.

It happens to all of us, apparently.

Even me, unfortunately.

So, yes, quite often you find that that you can't

see things close up or nearby.

And that's what happens to too many people,

including someone that I know quite well.

Sometimes they have to wear glasses

when they are looking at things close up.

I won't tell you who it is because he will be embarrassed and angry.

I think

these days

many people do wear glasses, so it is no problem.

Yes, I've noticed that.

I've noticed that I think more people than before

wear glasses than maybe years and years ago.

When I was at school, not many people wore glasses.

I will be honest with you. So.

So in my school, there are only a few people, a few of the students who wore glasses.

So, yes, you're right.

I think these days I might be wrong.

I'm willing to be wrong.

But I think these days more and more people do wear glasses.

I think so.

hello, Claudia.

Nice to see you here today.

Hello, Mr.

Duncan. I'm very busy.

I will watch the video later.

I will see you later.

Thank you very much, Claudia, for saying hello.

I know you have a lot on your plate at the moment.

If you have a lot on your plate, it means you have many things to deal with.

Many things happening in your life.

So don't worry.

Belarus here or as we often call you Claudia,

it's nice to see you here as well.

Hello, Yasmeen.

Yeah. Evening.

I hope I pronounce your name correctly.

I am here working, but I'm also listening to you as well.

A lot of people do that.

Some people don't watch my livestream.

They actually listen to the livestream

as if they are listening to a podcast.

So I think that's quite a good idea.

If you want to just listen to my livestream

and if it helps you in some way, do it.

Don't worry about it.

By the way, another thing I want to mention please

give me a lovely life.

If you can please give me a like

I will be ever so pleased if you can do that for me

to show that you enjoy what I do.

My granddaughter is over 18

and also wears glasses too.

Sometimes you might see a baby,

a very young child wearing glasses.

I always find that quite interesting when you see a very young child

or even I've seen babies in the past

actually wearing little glasses.

It looks very cute.

I know, but it's also very unusual.

But yes, sometimes you can.

Masood is here. Hello, Mohsin.

It feels like a long time since I said hello to you.

So I will say hello to you right now.

Very nice to see you here as well.

Mustafa is here, so I have to wear glasses.

I have no choice.

It doesn't bother me.

In fact, I suppose the one thing that about my appearance

that I don't actually worry about is wearing glasses.

And also you might notice today I'm not wearing my hats.

It might cause a little bit of a sensation or maybe a little bit of worry.

But I'm not wearing my hat today.

I am.

I am wishing that my hair will grow back.

And if you look carefully, you can see that I think my hair is actually growing back.

I don't know how it's happening.

Maybe it's all all the nutrients and all of the vitamins that I'm taking.

Maybe.

Maybe that's what's helping my hair.

Slowly grow back.

I hope so.

Louis Mendez I don't wear glasses,

but now I need to extend my arms.

So I have to go.

Yes. Sometimes people will read

and they will have the thing very far away from them.

So they read, but they have the paper

or the book very far away.

So they read like this.

I've seen that happen

and I know someone else who does that.

Can you guess who it is?

I wonder.

I wonder if you can guess who it is.

Mustapha says.

I thought something was missing and I couldn't tell what it was.

It took me a while to realise

that you didn't have your hat.

It is true.

I'm not wearing my hat today.

I hope it's not too disturbing for you.

I hope not.

Yes, it is very important,

I think of all the senses because we often think of our senses.

Hearing,

smell

and of course, sight.

I think of all the senses that you might lose.

I think sight is the one that I really would not want to lose.

I might even I might not worry about losing my hearing, to be honest, isn't not strange.

Now, you might think, Mr.

Duncan, you are wrong, but I would hate to lose my eyesight.

I think of all the things that you could lose.

I think your eyesight is the most precious of all.

Giovanni is here.

Hello, Giovanni.

We have a subject coming up in a few moments.

By the way, Mr.

Duncan, I hope everything is okay with you.

Nice pair of glasses, Mr. Duncan.

You do look nice without the hat.

It suits you this style.

Thank you very much.

Well, quite often I don't wear a hat.

Quite often I do

it depends what the situation is.

So if I go out somewhere quite often, I will wear a hat.

But if I'm in the house or if I'm socialising in a casual way,

I won't wear a hat.

So I don't always wear a hat.

But then I don't always not wear a hat,

if that makes sense.

I'm not sure if it does.

So we have today's subject coming up in a few moments.

We'll have a quick break and then we will be back talking all about words

and phrases connected to sight vision

and things that use your eyes.

All of that coming up next.

It is English addict.

Coming to you live from England.

Hello there. It's

ever so nice to have you here today.

It's very nice to be with you on this Wednesday, the 15th of November.

And we are heading very rapidly towards the end of November.

It will soon be December.

By the way, a big decision that I've made this year.

I haven't mentioned this yet, but this year

I am breaking from my tradition.

This year I am not

putting any lights on the house this year,

so I'm not doing the Christmas lights outside.

I will be putting lights in the house and in the windows.

But this year,

no Christmas lights outside.

I just don't have time to do it because it takes a lot of time.

And also you need at least three

or four days of good weather.

And at the moment, we are not having that.

So that is the reason why.

But no, this year there will be no Christmas lights on the house,

but there will be Christmas lights in the house

and also around me

as well as we head into December.

But that, of course, is all to come.

It's still on its way.

Hello to the live chat.

Kasie is here.

Kasie magazine, hello to you.

Nice to see you here on the live chat also.

Leonhardt.

Leandro, Leandro.

Hello, Leandro. Nice to see you here as well.

Welcome to the live chat by the way,

the view behind me, that is the weather outside the window right now.

You can see that many of the trees have changed colour.

They are starting to look golden and quite beautiful.

You might also notice there are some sheep.

So those little white dots that you can see,

they are actually sheep in the field at the front of the house.

So yes, it is a nice day today even though and unfortunately

it is very cold, especially at night.

I really like Mr.

Steve when he's wearing his big hats.

Mr. Steve also likes to wear that hat as well.

In fact, he wears it quite a lot.

He really does.

Please talk about

I can't I can't read that, unfortunately, because it's in Arabic.

I don't I don't read Arabic, unfortunately.

I can just about read English, to be honest with you,

with my my limited skills.

So today we are looking at things connected to

sight and also seeing and vision as well.

Words and phrases connected to the most important thing as far as I'm concerned.

Anyway, I think sight is the most precious of all the senses

now, I'm not saying that hearing isn't important, but I think of the two things.

I think if I was if I couldn't see, I think that would be terrible.

But if I lost my hearing, then I suppose I could still survive

and I could still see the beautiful colours of nature around me.

So I think it would bother me quite a lot

if if I lost my eyesight.

But if I lost my hearing, I think I could still enjoy life quite a lot.

Mr. Duncan

Watts We can't believe we can't believe that you

you are not putting your Christmas lights up this year.

Well, this year I'm doing something slightly different.

I'm not going to tell you what it is because, again,

I want to keep it as a surprise.

So here we go.

Then we are looking at

words and phrases connected to

sight seeing and vision.

Well, first of all, we have this word here, visual.

Visual.

So anything that you look at the action of seeing,

the action of, of looking at something, something that has to be seen

is visual or something

that is used to be seen.

So you are using something.

Maybe you are reading a book, maybe you are looking at pictures.

We describe those things as visual,

something that is on display,

something that you can see is visual.

So vision is the action of looking

or seeing something that is visual

is a thing that can be seen quite often in teaching.

We use visual to place or things.

You can look at words in a book, pictures,

or maybe something projected on the screen in front of you

visual the act of looking

and the thing that can be seen

or must be seen is visual.

Visual.

We often use the word vision vision

when we are looking at something.

And of course it is the sense of sight, which is vision.

Here is an interesting phrase.

This is one of our first phrases today.

Seeing is believing.

Quite often we do

tend to trust

our eyes when we see something.

We often believe it.

Quite often we will say, I won't believe that thing you are telling me

until I see it with my own eyes.

Seeing is believing.

So quite often we will use this phrase

when we are trying to persuade someone that it is true.

We might say seeing is believing.

Once you see that thing, you will believe it is real.

And quite often people do want evidence.

They want some sort of proof that something is real.

I suppose one of the things that comes to my mind at the moment is

alien is

little green men landing on the planet

and asking to be shown to our leader.

Well, something like that maybe.

Yes, seeing is believing.

So maybe a person will tell you that

they saw an alien in their back garden,

a little green man walking around their garden.

But you don't believe them.

You might want proof

that that thing actually occurred.

But even if you can see that thing,

even if you do see it,

it doesn't necessarily mean that it is true.

So maybe that particular phrase

is a little bit outdated nowadays.

Here's another one

We might describe a person as having 2020 vision,

2020 vision means you have a clear view.

Maybe we are referring to your eyesight.

We can say that a person's eyesight is clear,

that person can can see clearly.

They have 2020 vision.

They can see something very clearly,

just like the song that I was singing earlier.

Here's another one Blur the lines.

You might blur the lines.

So when we talk about blurring,

it means something will go out of focus.

It will become unclear for example,

if I take my glasses off for a moment,

everything is blurred.

I can't see anything around me

and that's the reason why I wear my glasses so I can see what is around

you. Blur the lines.

So if someone blurs the lines,

it means they are making something seem

distorted or unclear.

You blur the lines.

Quite often in life we look at things as being divided

in certain places, so if you blur

the lines, it means those things are crossing over

with each other, you blur the lines.

Those things are becoming merged.

If you blur the lines

is another one.

something catches your eye,

something catches your eye.

If something catches your eye, it means you notice something

or suddenly you become attracted to a certain thing.

It catches your eye.

Maybe you're walking past a shop window and suddenly you notice a pair of shoes.

A beautiful pair of shoes in the window.

Ooh, ooh.

That thing catches your eye.

Something that is very

clear.

Something that is very easy to understand.

Something that can be perceived

easy is crystal clear.

A thing that is crystal clear

is something that can be seen easily.

Crystal clear.

So quite often when we think of crystal,

we think of something that is very defined,

sharp and easy to see, crystal clear.

So a thing that is crystal clear is very obvious.

Clear.

Something that you are explaining.

A lot of people say, Mr.

Duncan, your your explanation

is crystal clear.

It means it is very easy to understand.

Something that is crystal clear is easy to understand.

Some people might experience

a vision.

You have a vision.

Quite often the vision will be in your imagination

something that you suddenly think about, something that you see.

Maybe you have some inspiration.

Perhaps you believe that you saw something in front of you.

You might have a vision.

Maybe at night you are alone in your house

and perhaps you see someone in your garden walking around.

You might describe that as a vision, something that is unclear,

something that you think is there, but also might not be.

You have a vision.

Something appears in front of.

You also, if you have inspiration,

maybe you get a good idea about something.

Maybe you have a vision for something

that you want to do or something you want to achieve in your life.

You can experience that vision as well.

Here is a phrase that a lot of people use these days,

especially when we are talking about being watched by

especially here on the Internet.

You may have noticed that if you want to be successful here on YouTube,

you have to have lots of eyeballs,

which is a modern phrase that often means viewers.

So if you refer to having eyeballs,

it means you have viewers.

Of course, generally speaking, your eyeballs

are your actual physical eyes.

But these days we often talk about eyeballs

when we are talking about viewers.

How many people are watching you right now?

How many people are viewing the thing you are showing

eyeballs refers

to viewers, the people watching around.

Here's another one,

a focus group.

Now, these days, when something

is being developed or created, quite often

we will ask one or a group of people

what they think about that particular thing.

Focus group.

Now, I remember earlier this year I was actually involved

with a focus group connected to YouTube and this was all about music.

So music and the way music is used on YouTube.

And I was invited to take part in a focus group

that means a group of people meet together and they all discuss

a certain topic or or a certain aspect.

So in this particular case it was about music

and the usage of music on YouTube.

So I was part of a focus group.

So this is something that is used quite often nowadays.

You normally ask maybe three or four

or maybe a whole group of people

what they think about a certain thing.

We often call it

a focus group,

a group of people that meet together

to talk about a certain thing or maybe to work out

whether a certain thing is good or bad.

Focus group.

You might also focus on something.

So this means to concentrate.

Maybe you focus on one thing,

maybe you have an examination coming up soon

and you have to work very hard because you need to pass the exam.

So you focus on your studies.

That means you give all of your attention to that.

One thing.

You focus on that particular thing.

If something is in focus, it means it is clear.

It is very easy to see.

As I mentioned earlier, I have to wear glasses because if I don't,

everything is out of focus.

It means I can't see anything around me.

So if something is in focus, it means it is clear

something in focus is clear.

We can often use this figuratively

to show that we understand something.

It is all in focus.

I understand what you are saying.

I know what you mean.

It is in focus.

Here's another one.

some that happens suddenly.

Something that happens quickly

may be something that occurs very fast.

Perhaps you don't even notice it.

It happens in the blink of an eye.

That is how fast it is,

Balram says.

You can have

treatment.

A doctor with a laser can cure your short sightedness

just within a few seconds.

Yes, I know that.

However,

laser surgery on your eyes is great if you are younger,

but not if you're older because my eyesight is really bad.

So I have in the past looked at laser surgery

having laser treatment to to fix my eyesight.

However, because my eyesight is so bad and so poor,

I can't actually correct this.

So my eyesight is very, very bad.

If I take my glasses off, I am as blind as about

keep your eye

on the ball

to concentrate on what you are doing.

Do not lose concentration.

You have to keep your eye on the ball

when say that we mean that You have to concentrate on the things you are doing.

Do not lose concentration.

Keep your eye on the ball.

There is another phrase as well that we use.

Keep your eye on the prize.

So maybe something you want to do, maybe something

you are aiming for, maybe something you want to achieve.

You have a certain goal.

You keep your eye on the prize,

or in this situation, you keep your eye on the ball.

It means to concentrate on what you are doing.

Here's another one.

So we had

crystal clear earlier on and now we have the opposite.

Something that is out of focus or is unclear.

So out of focus means everything that you are looking at

is unclear.

A thing that is out of focus cannot be seen clearly.

It is hard to see.

It is out of focus.

Also something that is out of sight,

maybe something hidden, maybe something you can't see.

A thing that is happening or maybe something

that is going on that you are unaware of.

It is out of sight.

It cannot be seen easily.

Maybe you have to look carefully for it.

Something hidden, something that is concealed

is out of sight

is another one.

We are looking at words and phrases connected to sight

seeing and also vision

to see sense.

If you see sense, it means you realise something.

You suddenly

maybe you've made a mistake,

maybe you are doing something you shouldn't.

But you take some advice, another person

and then you change your behaviour, you change your ways.

You see, since

it means suddenly you do the right thing, you see sense.

This can happen quite often in life.

Sometimes we might lose sense,

we might do

the wrong thing, we might take the wrong action.

But then of course we can also see sense.

If you see sense, it means you understand your mistake.

Or maybe you see something clearly,

something you didn't see clearly before.

To see something clearly, of course, is very similar.

You understand that thing.

So in this sense, the word see is actually

being used to mean understand.

You understand that thing.

You see something clearly.

So maybe if we are talking about your vision,

you can see something clearly.

It is very easy to see, but also something you you understand.

You see something clearly.

You understand that thing very well.

See the light?

I have seen the lights quite often.

If a person suddenly receives some sort of inspiration

or maybe encouragement or maybe something that makes them feel different

about themselves, you can say that you have seen the light.

It means you understand something much clearer,

or maybe you have discovered the thing that makes you happy,

or may be the thing that in inspires you to do something.

You see the light.

We often use this in religious terms when we are talking about a person

who discovers their true faith,

we can say that they have seen the light.

Here's another one.

If a person is short

sighted, it means that need to wear glasses.

However, we can also use this figuratively

to mean a person who cannot see the real situation.

Or maybe they are a little naive,

maybe they are uneducated,

maybe they are not clear on that thing.

That thing that they are talking about.

Maybe they don't realise the importance of something

we can describe that person as short sighted.

It means they are not seeing something clearly a certain situation.

Maybe something that is very important.

You are being short sighted,

you are not taking something seriously,

you are not viewing that thing as seriously as you should.

You are being short sighted

to have your sights set on something.

So this is very similar to having a goal, something you want to do in life.

You have your sight set on something

that means there is a thing in your future that you want achieve.

You want to get.

You have your sight set on something.

You can also say sights.

You have your sights set on something.

So some people say sight, some say sights.

You have your sight set on something.

It's a little bit like aiming at something.

Maybe if you have a weapon, you are setting your sight.

You are trying to focus on one particular thing.

You have your sight set on something.

here's another one.

It's a very naughty one too.

I hope someone, if you are.

Yep, someone.

It means you are

looking at them.

You are looking at a person or maybe you are looking at a thing.

You are.

You are something you are appraising that thing.

You are trying to make a judgement.

If you are up a beautiful woman, it means you are looking at her.

Or maybe you are eyeing up

a handsome man, or maybe a nice car.

Or maybe a lovely house.

You are eyeing up that particular thing.

To hire something means to look at something

normally to evaluate

or work out whether something is attractive or not to

turn a blind eye.

If you turn a blind eye to something,

it means you ignore that thing.

You look the other way.

You turn a blind eye, you are not looking.

You are ignoring that particular thing.

You could look at it, but you don't want to.

You don't want to acknowledge that thing.

So instead you look the other way.

Or of course, if you want to ignore

something that another person is doing,

you turn a blind eye.

Maybe at work you are stealing something from your your boss

and someone else sees you do it.

However, they don't say anything.

Instead they just turn a blind eye.

It means they look the other way.

They ignore that particular thing

You turn a blind eye

finally to

be a visionary.

very nice.

A person who is a visionary

is a person who can see things that other people can't.

Maybe they have a way of doing something

that other people don't understand, or maybe something that hasn't even happened yet.

But you know all about it.

You have a vision.

You might describe inventors,

people who create things as visionary.

They are a person who can see something that doesn't exist yet

or something that they want to create.

They are a visionary.

You might describe Elon Musk.

A lot of people have said over recent years

that he is a visionary.

He is a person who can see things, maybe

things that will happen in the far future.

They are a visionary,

very nice, a very lovely.

If you know someone who is a visionary, please let me know.
