  • hey everybody welcome back to let's talk this is me Mira all right

  • I've come I've come up with such an odd funny but odd words which are obviously

  • a part of English vocabulary and if you actually use these in your day to day

  • life or your messages or your mails probably I'm sure and I can assure you

  • that your English will certainly sound very decorated okay are you excited for

  • this because I am and did you if you ask me how did I how did I find all these

  • words I'll tell you how so since childhood have been watching a

  • lot of American TV series and they used to use these words of course I couldn't

  • understand at that point of time but when I watch them today I know exactly

  • what it means and I want to share it with you all so let's get started with

  • our first very funny yet a useful word which is blubber where of course it

  • sounds very funny and you wouldn't know what it means unless until I use it so

  • let me try and use it in a sentence and let's see if you can figure out what it

  • means okay okay here it goes all right stop blubbering

  • like a two-year-old did you guys can you figure out what it means so some of you

  • might have figured out it means to cry or to throw tantrums like a child and

  • that's how I used it okay to cry or throw tantrum so you can use it that way

  • that stop blubbering like a two-year-old my two year olds or my kids have been

  • blubbering since morning okay so I would tell if you know you can tell your

  • husband I have been taking care of the kids they have been blubbering since

  • morning you take care of them now right so you can use it very often

  • blubber remember this moving forward from blubber

  • we have doozie okay so do Z remember it's always used with earth all right ah

  • doozy it actually means if you want to express

  • something that is extraordinarily good or bad you can use a doozy

  • so hey so let's just figure this out okay so that show was embarrassing or if

  • the host did you know a few mistakes made a few mistakes and you want to just

  • talk to your friend about it so this is how you can say hey do you remember that

  • show oh yeah that just was a doozy right so you just mean that it was really

  • embarrassing for the horse and everyone felt bad about it okay you feel for the

  • person alright so it just means really bad or good so another example

  • did you eat french fries at that restaurant it's a doozy you just mean

  • it's really good and yummy and tasty okay moving from a doozy we have

  • flabbergasted flabbergasted can you hear it can you can you see how funny it is

  • right okay it just means something when when you're really astonished or

  • surprised so here's an example for you I checked the price of the dress online

  • and I was flabbergasted means extremely surprised okay I'm so glad that you guys

  • are getting to know these new words because I want you guys to use it I'm

  • telling you you would feel better each day when you use these fancy and funny

  • words in your daily life alright another word for flabbergasted could be I heard

  • her pregnancy news and I was flabbergasted simple right and it just

  • means surprised alright moving from here we have fests tuned

  • for me this word really sounds like a party word or it feels a very 60s or

  • 70's style party word but you know what it's actually a part of that vocabulary

  • it actually means to decorate or decorate it okay the strips are

  • festooned with lights during festivals or I have festooned my Christmas tree

  • this time right simple festooned remember this word you can use it for

  • decoration or decorated okay or you can hate you can only say hey your english

  • is festooned you're just trying to say how decorated your language or your

  • vocabulary is fun right so use it all right moving from festoon we have

  • fuddy-duddy again really funny but something very useful it usually means

  • something that when people have old beliefs right when you believe in

  • something that is old-fashioned that's when you say that that person is

  • fuddy-duddy so my grandfather always asks us to keep our hands off the table

  • while dining because he's such a fuddy-duddy right so someone with

  • old-fashioned beliefs old-fashioned

  • right old-fashioned belief system

  • alright moving from fuddy-duddy you can we're going to move to gibberish have

  • you heard this word before ever do you remember you're hearing this word

  • okay especially you can use this whenever you

  • or probably your friend gets drunk you can say oh I do none Durst and what this

  • person wants he's speaking gibberish did you guessed by now what it means it just

  • means a language that no one can understand or my two-year-old has

  • started talking and he speaks gibberish that just means a language that no one

  • understands I really like this word because it really so especially when

  • someone talks mathematics or numbers to me I'm like oh hold on hold on

  • you're speaking gibberish to me speak English that really means I cannot

  • understand or I cannot do maths well so for me that language is gibberish did

  • you get it now alright then moving from gibberish we have

  • shenanigans shenanigans this actually means problematic activities or tricks

  • that some people do so for example you've got to stop all this and you need

  • to start working otherwise your shenanigans are going to get you into

  • trouble right that means problem activities or I

  • can get into my classroom and say all of you all of you stop with your

  • shenanigans right now did you get it okay just means problematic activities

  • or tricks let me write that down

  • okay squabble my parents have been squabbling since morning did you get it

  • what is it it just means fight and that for a very small reason for

  • very very stupid something which is very stupid so stop squabbling about where to

  • eat let's just go and find someplace to eat right so whenever you fight with

  • your friends for something so stupid I want to go to this restaurant no I want
