All right, in this Crameri fresh, we're going to start by looking again at some of these special attractions
we use when we're speaking these kind of contractions.
We've looked at them before.
If you've watched other grandma refresh, but we're going to keep looking at them because they're very
helpful when you're listening to help you understand when a native speaker is talking to you.
And these contractions that we look at today are want to becomes Waagner.
If you're what are you or what do you become whatcha.
And have got to becomes God.
So, you know, it used to hearing these contractions want to watch out because they're very different
than the actual words themselves and they're not used to hearing them get lost in a conversation pretty
quickly.
Well, let's look at some examples that I don't want to be here.
I don't want to be here very quick, all runs together may be hard to understand, but we don't speak
slowly like this.
Normally it's not I don't want to be here.
If we did say something like I don't want to be here, then it's because we're adding a special emphasis
to the fact that we don't want to be there.
But if we're just speaking, then we're going to contract it and it's going to be I don't want to be
here.
The next one, what you're doing, what you're doing.
So, again, this what is what are you.
But are you becomes what is so this one very unusual, this sound comes from nowhere, right?
What you're doing?
What are you doing, what you're doing?
What you're doing, what you're what you're doing.
And the next one, sorry, got to go now or call you back.
Gotta I gotta go now.
Got to go now.
It's much easier to say than sorry, I got to go now.
Sounds a little strange.
Daria Burgo now.
Sorry, have go.
The next thing we'll look at is we use the phrase, it must be nice or it must be great or some type
of adjective, plus the ISG form of the verb.
And this phrase.
It can be a good thing, right?
You can be sincere and say, oh, it must be nice to have friends, right.
But normally we're going to use this phrase when we are jealous about that thing.
And we're kind of just it.
Oh, it must be nice to have friends, right?
Like, I don't have any friends.
I wouldn't know, but it must be nice.
So you're kind of using this in a jealous situation.
But let's look at our examples.
The first one is your parents are paying for your trip.
It must be nice not having to worry about money, right, so here there's a there's a meaning behind
this, right?
They don't mean this.
They don't mean, oh, look at you.
It's nice to not have to be worried about money.
Right.
This is more of a jealous response, like, oh, it must be nice not having to worry about money.
Right.
Like, I have to pay for everything.
You don't know how hard it is.
The next sentence, it must be great knowing everyone around here.
So, again, this could be a normal sentence.
But, you know, right now we're looking at when we use it in a jealous way.
So when this person is saying it must be great knowing everyone around here, this is like kind of like
sarcasm where you're saying jealously to your friend because you don't know anyone maybe.
And so it's very uncomfortable for you.
