Learn English with TV shows: FRIENDS - Ross Says Pivot???
Untertitel (433 Segmente)
ever wondered why Ross keeps yelling
in this iconic friend scene and what it
means in this video we'll break down
this hilarious scene where Ross Chandler
and Rachel tried to move Ross's new
couch up the stairs keep watching to see
if they succeed and learn some essential
English phrases along the way first
we'll watch part of the clip with
subtitles I brought reinforcements oh
great what you brought Joey well I
brought the next best thing all right
Chandler the next best thing would be
Monica
you know I would be offended but Monica
is freakishly strong
I drew a sketch of how we're going to do
it okay Rage that's you
that's the couch
what's that oh that's me
wow
I certainly think a lot of yourself
oh that's that's my arm
oh I see I thought you just really
really liked your new catch
you know just just follow my lead okay
come on
all right okay
here we go
all right ready
turn okay turn
I don't think we can try anymore
next we'll break down the video and
learn key vocabulary I brought
reinforcements oh great what you brought
Joey reinforcements refers to the
additional support four people brought
in which in this case Ross thinks it's
Joey that's going to help with the sofa
but it can also mean extra supplies or
resources you may need in other
situations like if you don't have any
more snacks at a party you can go get
more and say I brought reinforcements
remember that broad is the past tense of
bring which means to carry or take
something or someone to a particular
place like I brought wine so here when
Rachel says I brought reinforcements she
means that she brought additional help
or support to deal with this situation
but we later see that Ross doesn't seem
to think Chandler actually is a
reinforcement
well I brought the next best thing so
when someone says the next best thing
they're talking about an alternative
option that is almost as good as the
ideal choice in this context next means
following an order and best refers to
something being the most excellent or
desirable it's a way of expressing that
although the situation isn't perfect
it's still pretty good for example let's
say your favorite ice cream flavor is
strawberry and your second favorite is
chocolate so chocolate ice cream is the
next best thing remember that using
idiomatic expressions like the next best
thing can make your English sound more
natural and engaging so definitely try
to use them in your conversations so in
this scene the best person for the job
would be Joey but he was unavailable so
Rachel brought the next best thing
Chandler the next best thing would be
Monica
you know I would be offended but Monica
is freakishly strong
someone is offended
or annoyed be because of something
someone said or did that seems unfair or
disrespectful in this case Chandler is
suggesting that if Ross was talking
about someone else he might be upset
about Ross's judgment but he isn't
because he knows Monica's strength is
