Let's learn some advanced C2 phrases to help you build your vocabulary.

And C2 is just Cambridge's highest level qualification and is really just proof that you are a highly competent speaker.

And I am going to teach you some advanced phrases

that I think are common and I'm going to tell you the meaning,

talk a little bit about how these phrases are used,

and I'm also going to teach you how to correctly pronounce these phrases because If you're going to use them,

you want to make sure that you are saying them correctly.

And if you enjoy building your vocabulary,

That way I can become your teacher.

My name is Wes.

The channel is Interactive English.

It's all about trying to help you reach your fluency goals.

So let's begin with our first phrase,

which is clear the air.

So to clear the air means to remove the bad feelings between people.

And You might use this if you have a couple of friends who are unhappy with each other,

or maybe some family members,

and there are just some bad feelings.

And then someone else, the person who wants to get those feelings removed,

that's the person who's going to use this phrase.

So if I have a couple of friends that have been arguing,

and there are some bad feelings,

and I and the one who wants them to make up,

then I might tell them,

you know, it's time to clear the air.

We really need to clear the air and we need to just remove these bad feelings.

Now, as far as pronunciation goes,

the one word that I want to focus on is the article the.

And you notice how I just pronounced it then.

I said it with the schwa sound,

which is an uh sound.

And it's definitely weaker, the.

And typically, people might say the before a consonant sound the cat, the dog.

If the article comes before a vowel sound,

then people may say the, the elephant, the air.

Now, I will say that people in the United States,

which is where I'm from,

may not follow this rule,

and they often use the before either a consonant or a vowel.

However, in a phrase like this,

which is fixed, and you hear these words together,

in this case, you are going to say the clear the air.

Don't make me join the army, okay?

I'll cut off a tow.

What?

Okay, okay.

We are just going to clear the air.

And then we have trial and error.

And this is a way of solving a problem by trying a number of different methods

and then learning from the mistakes that you make.

And I think often this phrase is used when talking about science

because perhaps somebody is doing an experiment

And you could say it's just a matter of trial and error before we get the result that we want.

I also want to tell you that people may use this phrase with the word process.

And somebody could say it's a process of trial and error.

These words are frequently used together.

A process of trial and error.

And I could say that,

well, learning new vocabulary, it's also a process of trial and error.

Because you're learning these phrases.

You're going to try to use them in context.

You may make mistakes, but that's okay.

You'll learn from those mistakes,

and then you keep practicing until these phrases are a part of your speaking vocabulary.

For pronunciation, what I would tell you is that with and,

I'm going to reduce it so it just sounds like n, trial and error.

And then error is a little challenging on its own.

The word has two syllables,

has those two R sounds remember that the stress is on the first syllable.

Error.

Trial and error.

And I can tell you,

relationships are just trial and error.

Something else that's a little bit of trial and error is pronunciation.

And that's why I've been talking to you about how to correctly pronounce these phrases.

But a great way to practice and learn from your mistakes is by using the pronunciation app Elsa Speak,

who was kind enough to sponsor today's lesson.

To tell you the truth,

I actually heard about this app from you.

I've had students tell me that they've been using ELSA Speak to practice their pronunciation and speaking,

and that's when I decided to see what it's all about.

So I downloaded the app and I started exploring.

And there's a lot of cool things that you can do with ELSA Speak.

You can You can practice linking sounds or dropping consonants,

the schwa sound, and all of this is really going to help you fine-tune your pronunciation skills.

You can even practice the pronunciation of different words and phrases,

such as the ones we've been talking about.

So if I put in trial and error.

We can then listen to the phrase trial and error and then you can practice trial and error.

Alright and you can see you get instant feedback and that's going to help you make adjustments,

learn from your mistakes and continue to improve your pronunciation.

And right now when you click on the link below and download the ELSA Speak app,

you can get seven days of the Pro membership for free.

But you can also use my discount to get 85% off the ELSA Speak lifetime membership or 40% off a one-year membership.

So check out those links and the discount down in the description

if you would like to improve your pronunciation and sound just like a native speaker.

Now let's get back to those advanced C2 phrases to help you build your vocabulary.

100

And the next phrase that I have for you is to be at odds over or to be at odds with.

101

You can follow it with either of those prepositions.

102

This just means to disagree or be different from something.

103

So I could say my siblings and I are at odds over the family estate.

104

We just disagree.

105

Or I'm at odds with his version of the story.

106

Okay, my version is different.

107

So as far as pronouncing this phrase,

108

I want you to look at that word at.

109

Okay, typically it would end with a stop T,

110

but in American English, because I'm from the United States,

111

that T comes between two vowel sounds,

112

so I am going to pronounce it as a flap T,

113

which is going to sound a little more like a soft D.

114

And then I'm going to take that soft D and link it with the vowel sound in odds. At odds.

115

So you should hear that flat T,

116

and then it's getting linked with the vowel sound in odds.

117

I'm at odds with his version of the story.

118

Some people say your immigration policy is at odds with your jobs program.

119

How would you respond to that?

120

Then there's beyond a doubt,

121

or beyond a shadow of a doubt.

122

And in this case, you are just expressing certainty that something is true.

123

I could say, I think it's beyond a shadow of a doubt that the earth's climate is changing.

124

In law, you may hear someone say, beyond a reasonable doubt.

125

And this just means that the argument presented shows that someone is guilty,

126

and it just must be accepted as fact.

127

So a person might say,

128

we have shown that the defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

129

In order to correctly pronounce this phrase,

130

keep in mind that the article is just going to be pronounced as the schwa sound.

131

It's just going to sound like a,

132

and then we can do some linking and link some consonants with that schwa sound.

133

Beyond a shadow of a doubt.

134

So two things beyond a of a,

135

beyond a shadow of a doubt.

136

So hopefully you can hear that linking occurring.

137

Beyond a shadow of a doubt.

138

Beyond a shadow of a doubt.

139

I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that Clark Kent loves Lois Lane.

140

The next phrase is one that I use quite often and that is play it by ear.

141

I really like this one.

142

It means that you are deciding how to handle a situation as it develops instead of acting on some,

143

well, previous plan that you had.

144

So I think I would often use this when traveling

145

that I like to have an idea of what I'm going to do,

146

but I also want to be able to change those plans as the day develops.

147

So I could say, yeah,

148

you know, let's just play it by ear.

149

I know we're gonna try to do these things,

150

but you know, we can make some changes if necessary.

151

We'll just play it by ear.

152

And when it comes to pronouncing this phrase,

153

there's also some linking going on.

154

The final consonant sound in play can get linked with the vowel sound in it.

155

Play it.

156

Play it.

157

Let's play it by ear.

158

So when are you getting back from Florida?

159

Oh, I don't know.

160

Play it by ear.

161

Why?

162

Go with the flow.

163

This means to do what other people are doing

164

or just agree with other people simply because it's the easiest thing to do.

165

So you may hear somebody tell you,

166

hey, you should just relax and go with the flow.

167

Or I could talk about myself and say,

168

I'm just gonna go with the flow.

169

I really don't have a strong opinion about things.

170

I just want to do what's easiest,

171

so I'm just gonna go with the flow.

172

And when saying this phrase,

173

keep in mind there are some overlapping sounds, those THs.

174

So that final TH in with is going to overlap with the beginning TH in the.

175

The only difference is that in with,

176

that TH is voiceless, and in the, the th is voiced.

177

So when you're pronouncing this,

178

those sounds will overlap and you're really going to say that voiced th.

179

Go with the flow.

180

Go with the flow.

181

I'm going to go with the flow.

182

I'm done complaining.

183

I'm evolving.

184

Just going to go with the flow.

185

Then we have the phrase to put one's foot down.

186

And this just means to use your authority to stop something from happening.

187

And often I think people would use this phrase in the first person,

188

talking about something that's happening at that moment,

189

in which case they're going to use the continuous tense,

190

I'm putting my foot down.

191

So think about somebody who is more of an authority figure,

192

like parents would say this to their child.

193

If they want to go out to some party and the parent doesn't want them to go,

194

they could say, no, you're not going to that party.

195

I'm putting my foot down.

196

I'm using my authority to stop this from happening.

197

I'm putting my foot down.

198

There are two things that I want you to keep in mind when pronouncing this phrase.

199

The first is that if you're saying it in the continuous tense,

200

the T in putting comes between two vowel sounds.

201

So again, being from the United States,

202

I am going to use a flat T,

203

so it'll sound like a soft D.

204

I'm putting my foot down.

205

The other thing I want to say is that foot down.

206

There's some co-articulation going on because the position of your tongue when you say foot,

207

all right, that stop t,

208

your tongue is going to be at the top part of your mouth.

209

But then when you move into saying down,

210

your tongue with that d sound is also going to be at the top.

211

So you're not going to touch it twice and say them as two different words,

212

you're really going to say foot and then move right into that d sound in down.

213

Foot down, foot down, and your tongue is really just coming up to the top part of your mouth one time.

214

Foot down.

215

I'm putting my foot down.

216

Come on you guys.

217

I'm putting my foot down.

218

Either the dog moves out or I do.

219

Then there's down the drain,

220

which is, it's not a good phrase because it means that work or money has just been wasted.

221

So if I were to say,

222

all that work down the drain,

223

that the work was, well,

224

it wasn't used, it was wasted,

225

maybe it was destroyed, just down the drain.

226

Or the money that I won went right down the drain.

227

Okay, I used it all up, probably carelessly.

228

It's gone now, and it just went right down the drain.

229

The pronunciation of this phrase, it's pretty straightforward.

230

The only thing I would say is that the article is going to be pronounced with that schwa sound, the.

231

It's that weaker sound, down the drain.

232

I bought you a ticket for the MyPad raffle, Dad.

233

Oh, that's tooth fairy money down the drain, sweetie.

234

I never win anything.

235

Next is to come under fire.

236

And this just means to be criticized.

237

And really, someone or something comes under fire.

238

I could say the government has come under fire after the failed response.

239

People are angry, they're upset,

240

they're criticizing the government, so the government has come under fire.

241

Or the CEO has come under fire after the latest scandal.

242

Again, people are angry and they're criticizing and someone has come under fire.

243

Now, when pronouncing this phrase,

244

again, there's a little bit of linking going on

245

that final consonant sound in come is going to get linked with the vowel sound in under.

246

Come under.

247

Come under fire.

248

Take a look.

249

Cam Brady has come under fire.

250

Getting it on with this one.

251

Shana St. Croix, a former professional cheerleader.

252

The next one.

253

And it's also one of my favorite phrases from this lesson.

254

And that is jump to conclusions.

255

And what this means is that someone is just guessing the facts about a situation without having enough information.

256

And you would say someone is jumping to conclusions.

257

Often I think people may use this with not.

258

In that case, you're telling someone,

259

let's not jump to conclusions.

260

Let's not guess until we get more information.

261

So I could say, let's not jump to conclusions.

262

We need more evidence that is beyond a shadow of a doubt.

263

So in the meantime, let's just not jump to conclusions.

264

For pronunciation, the only thing that I would say is that preposition to.

265

It can either be pronounced to,

266

but sometimes it's pronounced with that schwa sound,

267

and it's going to sound like to.

268

And often I think you will hear people say to when they're using this phrase,

269

jump to conclusions.

270

Okay, I'll say it slowly again so you can hear that to.

271

Jump to conclusions.

272

And then when I say it quickly, jump to conclusions.

273

So it's a very subtle difference,

274

but I'm still using that schwa, jump to conclusions.

275

This was stolen from there.

276

We're accessories to a federal crime.

277

Let's not jump to conclusions.

278

A lot of things start with you.

279

Then there's out of one's depth.

280

And this means that a person is not having the knowledge,

281

experience, or skills to deal with a particular situation or subject.

282

I think you would often hear somebody saying this phrase to another person,

283

in which case they're saying,

284

look, you're out of your depth.

285

It's too difficult.

286

You don't have the experience or the knowledge.

287

You're out of your depth.

288

A few things when it comes to pronunciation.

289

Out of.

290

So that T, again, it comes between two vowel sounds,

291

so I'll pronounce it as a flat T,

292

and then I will link it with the vowel sound in of.

293

Out of.

294

Out of.

295

And then just keep in mind depth.

296

It ends with that voiceless TH.

297

It's very slight, but you should pronounce that voiceless TH.

298

Depth.

299

Out of your depth.

300

Out of your depth.

301

I know what I'm doing.

302

You don't.

303

You're out of your depth, Ruth.

304

And I'm not going to let you drag Jonah down with you, okay?

305

And then there's to do someone or something justice.

306

And this just means to be accurate or fair by representing someone or something as that person or thing truly is.

307

And let me give you a couple of examples.

308

I think it'll make more sense.

309

So this phrase is often used in the negative and with the pronoun it.

310

Doesn't do it justice.

311

So it's like I'm talking about a situation and then saying that it's just not an accurate representation.

312

like the the book is

313

so much better than the movie the movie doesn't do it justice

314

or the Grand Canyon is breathtaking pictures don't do it justice

315

that pictures are just it's just not a fair

316

or accurate representation of the Grand Canyon you really got to go there the pictures they just don't do it justice.

317

So when you say this phrase,

318

if you're using the pronoun it,

319

then there's going to be some intrusion.

320

Intrusion is when you are adding a sound in between two other sounds.

321

So in this case, we're going to add a slight W sound between do and it. Do it.

322

This allows us to link those two vowel sounds together.

323

It doesn't do it justice.

324

It just doesn't do it justice.

325

It doesn't do you any justice, I'll tell you that.

326

You always said you like my nose.

327

I love your nose.

328

It's real big up there.

329

So I hope that I have demonstrated,

330

beyond a shadow of a doubt,

331

that these phrases are useful.

332

And I truly think that when you are learning advanced phrases like these,

333

you are not out of your depth.

334

You have the experience, you have the knowledge,

335

you just need to learn them and just get a little practice using them.

336

But I do not want to jump to conclusions.

337

Only you can tell me how much you understand and how much you have learned,

338

and I would appreciate it if you let me know down in those comments.

and I will see you next time. So long.
