gmp_20101213.zipIn the United States these days some people are choosing to start work on Tuesdays just so they can avoid Monday Blues. They actually say the work week of Tuesday through Saturday kind of leaves their mind of panic attacks.
Tidy up: ‘tidy’ is clean and organized, so to ‘tidy up’ is to make something organized to arrange things > 깔끔하게 정리하다 (=tidy up after your dogs > 강아지들의 용변을 치워주세요)
Jack up: let’s imagine that you have flat tire in your car. What are you going to do? If you are the hulk, you can pick up your car and change the tire, however if you are not, you’re going to have to reach into your trunk and remove an item, a tool called the jack, ‘jack up’ means raise your car or lift up physically or increasing the price > 가격 등을 대폭 인상하다
Shut up: ‘shut’ means to close. ‘Shut up’ is terribly expression you shouldn’t say, in anger, it’s not very nice, however, among friends or normal conversations, it’s a funny thing to say, oh, no, I don’t believe you, that’s not true > 입을 다물다, 믿을 수 없다
Ex)
Don’t forget to tidy up before we go out > 외출하기 전에 깔끔하게 정리하는 거 잊지마
Shops always jack up(>mark down) prices at holiday time > 상점들은 휴가철엔 항상 가격을 올려
Just shut up and listen to me > 그만 입다물고 내 말 좀 들어
<More Expressions>
Tidy out: weep up something needless > 불필요한 것을 깨끗이 치워버리다
Jack around: goof around, kill time > ~의 시간을 허비하다
Shut one’s eyes to: pretend not to see > 못 본척하다, 눈감아주다
Ex)
It’s time to tidy out the kitchen cupboards > 버릴 건 버리고 주방 싱크대 정리 좀 해야겠어
Let’s go. We’re being jacked around here > 어서 가자, 여기서 시간을 너무 허비했어
You shouldn’t shut your eyes to his faults > 그의 실수를 눈감아 주어서는 안돼
<John’s Recapitulations>
Taking care of the house and doing house’ keeping is a very tough job. Nobody really likes to do it very much. But it’s important to tidy up after yourself and leaving in a pretty clean environment. Well Gil-dong and I we decided we would take turns and he then he said he would pay me. He would actually pay me weekly if I would tidy up house every day. I couldn’t believe it. I said shut up. You’re going to pay me to clean the house. He said, yeah, why not? I will give you 500 won per week. I told him wait! I think we have to jack up the price a little bit if you want me to tidy up. So he’s thinking about it now
