This little hit has been impossible to escape lately.

I mean, it really has all the ingredients of the perfect pop song.

But I'll be telling you more about that in just a little bit.

So to start off today's lesson, we're going to watch a clip from an interview with where Rose tells Jordan North, a British radio presenter, about the meaning behind her song Apatuh.

It's really just for, like, it's kind of fun, the funsies.

We were all drinking Diet Coke over hamburgers.

And then I was like, I'll teach you guys Korean drinking games.

But I like, I caught onto it because all these, they're not Korean and they're just all Americans.

And I was, wow, you guys are really loving this.

And jokingly, we made the song and that's what Opatz is right now.

Yeah, I mean, Bruno jumped on it, so, I mean, he helped a lot.

So if you have a keen ear, you might have noticed that Jordan has a rather strong northern English accent.

Now compare that to Rose's accent, which actually has roots from Australian English, as she grew up in Melbourne, or Melbourne, as they like to say there, really, just for, like, it's kind of fun, the funsies.

So let's kick off the lesson with some creative Aussie slang.

For example, you and your friends might have a spontaneous dance off in the living room just for fun or just for funsies.

We're all drinking diet coke over hamburgers.

And then when she says they were drinking diet coke over hamburgers, what do you think over means in this context?

The phrase over hamburgers means while eating hamburgers.

For example, you can chat over coffee, meaning you chat while drinking coffee.

It's really just for like, it's kind of fun.

I was like, at the studio, we were just, we're all drinking diet coke over hamburgers.

A popular drinking game in America I loved playing in college is beer pong.

It's when you set up cups on a table and each team tries to toss ping pong balls into the other team's cups.

If you land a ball in their cup, they have to drink it.

It's super fun and it gets pretty competitive.

To catch on to something means to become aware of or realize something.

So Rose realized the rest of the guys in the room were Americans and didn't know the game's rules.

All right, so next there is a great example of connected speech, which is how we natives cut and link our words together.

The T sound stands between two vowels and what usually Happens in American and Australian English is that the t turns into a flap T which sounds like a soft D.

And I was like, wow, you guys are really loving this.

So as we understand from their conversation, they were just playing around.

Or in other words, they were just having fun when they created that song.

For example, the inventor of velcro was just playing around with burrs, a plant, when he came up with the idea for disconnecting material.
