Enrich Your English through Ads
Posted by Tanya Peterson on 25th Jun 2018
Advertisements are rich sources of idioms and they’re often fun to watch. Take a look at this funny new Smirnoff advertisement starring actor Ted Danson and listen for these two idioms:
- What’s that supposed to mean? – What are you saying?; I’m not sure I understand what you’re saying (note: sometimes said when you’re offended by what the person is saying)
- regular Joe – an average person (note: also sometimes known as an ordinary Joe, Joe Sixpack or for women: an ordinary Jane, an average Jane)
