The intro
(Listening Comprehension)
Gooooood morning, guys and gals, this is Mr. Wong speaking. What a wonderful Wednesday morning we have and uh…I wanna uh …um… I am Mr Wong, yes I am. No, I am not Mr. Wong. Um…but…but Mr. Wong says "hi." Hello Mr. Wong, yeah yeah. Uh…my name is Steven. Hey there, guys and gals. I wanna talk to you about something today. And today I wanna talk to you about 「借你吉言」which in English, it means…umm… As a matter of fact, there is an English saying which means exactly the same as 「借你吉言」 let's take a look at this example, OK, so here is the first one:
YES! We say "from your mouth to God's ear" or "from your lips to God's ear." You express the same meaning in English. When you say this to someone, it means that you hope what they are saying will come true. Alright, let's practice once again, here we go:
Okay, now this is a sensitive topic, so I'm not gonna talk about more than I should. But let's just say this, when someone says something that you feel it's really really nice and productive and it's something that you would like to happen, you would say, for example, "from your mouth I would like your words to carry on and make it happen for me, make it beneficial, make it …so this will be my reality." So, you can…it actually refers to, "from your mouth to my reality," you can say that as well, and I would definitely understand. Okay, so there we go, let's make a little sentence: "From your mouth to my reality." or "I hope your words become my reality." It's usually followed by a "thank you." For example, "From your mouth to my reality, and thank you for saying so."
Okay, everyone, I hope you enjoy today. This is Steven from…this is…No! This is Mr. Wong? Am I Steven? I forgot! Anyways, I love you very much! I want you to click on the "like". I want you to leave your comments, because this is a very important thing! You could …you have to leave a comment, please…!!! Anyways, haha, leave a comment, subscribe to this channel, subscribe to all the channels that you see here today, including mine, yeah! Um…have a nice day and see you tomorrow, bye bye!
