■ 모닝단어 ■
step 1
settle down : (결혼해서)자리잡다(get married)
Settle, you know, Jake, we've often said many of these expression!s have more than one meaning, more than one definition. We try to focus on one at a time. So today let's focus on 'settle down' meaning 'get married'. Stop running around, stop dating a lot of different people, calm down, focus, settle down.
water down : ~에 물을타서 희석시키다(make weak of mild)
Ah, water down, let's think for a moment. Perhaps you're in the kitchen and you're making some food, maybe you're gonna make some 찌게. So you test it. Oh, it's a little bit salty or a little bit strong. What do you do? You add water. Why? Water will make things a little bit thinner, weaker. So water down means to make things weaker, not so strong.
take down : ~을 끄집어 내리다(remove from hanging on the wall)
Ah, to take down again, another expression! with many meanings. Let's focus on this one. To remove from a high place, take down a book from the shelf, take down a picture from the wall, take down, remove from a high place.

■ John's Recap. ■
You know, for those of you who are very romantic and you have a burning heart and you are desiring to settle down, perhaps the first thing you can do is (to) look at the calendar. Take down a calendar from the wall and start looking to make some goals and make some plans. Don't water down your plans. Be very specific. Say! all right, bye this time, I would like to fall in love. I would like to get married. Settle down, enjoy life with family.
