1
Hi, I'm Izzy, your real-life English fluency coach, and today we'll learn advanced English with another scene from what's
2
considered by many people the best pilot episode of a TV show of all time.
3
We're back with Suits and the badass lawyer Harvey Spector in the very first scene he appears.
4
Now this lesson is absolutely packed with useful expressions for you to add to your own vocabulary, and as always, you'll have a lot of fun along the way.
5
So here's what you need to know.
6
Gerald Tate, this man, is a client at Harvey's law firm.
7
He hired them to help with a company acquisition.
8
That's when one company buys another company and they merge into one.
9
The deal was going smoothly when Harvey left the office at 7pm, but now, late at night, Harvey gets called back because everything's falling apart.
10
So let's see what went wrong.
11
I'm paying you millions.
12
And you're telling me I'm gonna get screwed?
13
Jessica, have I come in at a bad time?
14
Gerald.
15
This is Harvey Specter.
16
He's our best closer.
17
Well, if you're the best closer, where the hell have you been for the last three hours?
18
Well, Gerald, I specialize in troubled situations.
19
And when I left here at 7 p.m., this deal wasn't in jeopardy.
20
So I'm just trying to figure out what happened in the interim.
21
We keep offering more money, they keep rejecting it.
22
It's last-minute bad faith bullshit.
23
Alright, in this lesson we're gonna walk through the entire scene part by part.
24
We just watched the first part and so now we're gonna break down the advanced vocabulary we just saw.
25
So right from the first line we can hear an interesting word Gerald uses.
26
I'm paying you millions and you're telling me I'm gonna get screwed?
27
When someone gets screwed in business, they end up with a bad deal.
28
Maybe they lose money or things don't work out the way they expected.
29
Like if you get screwed by a car salesman because you paid too much or the car broke down right away.
30
You can use this informal expression in other contexts too.
31
It basically means to be cheated or treated unfairly.
32
See this other example.
33
Revenue projections down and down.
34
I think we got screwed.
35
Yeah, me too.
36
Massive fuck up Ken, huge.
37
So this is when Harvey enters.
38
Let's see how Jessica introduces him.
39
Jessica, have I come in a bad time?
40
Gerald, this is Harvey Specter.
41
He's our best closer.
42
In business, a closer is someone who's skilled at getting deals done.
43
In other words, good at closing deals, which is a common collocation you'll hear with the word deal.
44
So this person should make sure agreements actually happen, they should know how to handle objections, navigate problems, and push things through to completion.
45
So Harvey isn't so happy to be called back into the office.
46
Let's see what he has to say.
47
Well, Gerald, I specialize in troubled situations.
48
When I left here at 7pm, this deal wasn't in jeopardy, so I'm just trying to figure out what happened in the interim.
49
When something is in jeopardy, it's at risk, or in danger of failing.
50
For example, in the show, Mike Ross is a lawyer who never attended law school, and this secret keeps his job at the firm in jeopardy.
51
And by the way, pay attention to the pronunciation.
52
It's not jail party, but rather jeopardy.
53
Jeopardy.
54
When I left here at 7pm, this deal wasn't in jeopardy.
55
It wasn't in jeopardy.
56
Next, Harvey says that he's just trying to understand, or to figure out, what happened between the time he left and came back.
57
That's what the expression in the interim means, the time period between two events.
58
It's pretty formal though, so you could also say in the meantime.
59
Check out this example.
60
Dylan G's waffle party will commence at close of day.
61
In the meantime, I've ordered the pre-waffle party egg bar social for everyone.
62
I'm just trying to figure out what happened in the interim.
63
In the interim.
64
And the pronunciation of the expression, in an interim, which is how Harvey said it, is also worth looking into.
65
Basically, the T sound in the words the and interim get dropped.
66
And we get this beautiful example of connected speech over the three words.
67
In the becomes in a.
68
Interim becomes interim.
69
So what we hear is in a interim.
70
In a interim.
71
Now I want to hear you practice it.
72
Repeat after Harvey.
73
So I'm just trying to figure out what happened in the interim.
74
We keep offering more money, they keep rejecting it.
75
It's last minute bad faith bullshit.
76
Jared uses three expressions here that show just how frustrated he is.
77
First, last minute means happening at the very end, right before a deadline.
78
Last minute changes are especially annoying because there is no time to prepare.
79
Bad faith is when someone is being dishonest or not keeping the word.
80
If you negotiate in bad faith, you're pretending to be fair, but you're actually trying to trick the other person.
81
And bullshit is a vocal word for nonsense or lies.
82
When someone calls something bullshit, they're saying it's completely false or unfair.
83
Now let's watch the next part of the scene and see what other expressions we can catch. in the goddamn interim.
84
What are you gonna do about it?
85
Because he's not getting that title.
86
Okay, so back to the scene, it seems Harvey just spotted a problem.
87
Mr. Cooper is the founder of the company Gerald is buying.
88
And as a part of the deal, Cooper was supposed to get an honorary vice president title.
89
It says here that Cooper won't be staying on as honorary vice president.
90
That's right, I don't want him around.
91
An honorary position is one that's given as an honor or sign of respect, not because the person actually does the work.
92
Think of it like an honorary degree from a university.
93
It's given to someone who hasn't attended classes but has achieved something impressive.
94
Like Oprah Winfrey who holds an honorary doctor of humane letters from Harvard University for her media career in philanthropy.
95
So Cooper's title would be purely ceremonial with no real powers or responsibilities.
96
But Gerald doesn't want him around.
97
This simply means that he doesn't want Cooper to be present or involved in any way.
98
He wouldn't be around.
99
It's an honorary position.
100
I don't give a shit.
101
This is a vulgar way of saying, I don't care at all.
102
And you may also hear, I don't give a damn, or even the more vulgar, I don't give a fuck.
103
But these are extremely informal and actually quite rude, so you probably want to stick with the simple, I don't care, which won't sound as rude.
104
Well, I think you do because that's what's changed since I left, which means it's you who's been dealing in bad faith.
105
Well, now that you've got a grasp on what's happened in the goddamn interim, what are you going to do about it?
106
When you've got a grasp on something, you understand it.
107
You figure it out.
108
See this example.
109
I would have nominated you for Secretary of Treasury
110
because your expertise in economics is even better than your grasp on foreign affairs.
111
Well, now that you've got a grasp on what's happened in the goddamn interim, what are you going to do about it?
112
What are you going to do about it?
113
Alright, another nice connected speech pattern for us to look into.
114
This time it's a classic.
115
Did you listen to the way he said the words, what are you?
116
Natives often do this, so three things are happening here.
117
Number one, the T in what turns into an American T, which sounds like a fast D sound.
118
It's the sound you hear in the word water, instead of water with a strong T.
119
Number two, the word R gets dropped.
120
And number three, the word you turns into ya.
121
So put all that together and we get what ya?
122
What are you gonna do about it?
123
Let's try to repeat.
124
Well now that you've got a grasp on what's happened in the goddamn interim, what are you gonna do about it?
125
What are you gonna do about it?
126
Alright, let's keep going with the scene.
127
Well, let me make sure I understand this, okay?
128
We negotiated a deal that gave you everything you wanted, Mr. Cooper signed it, and now you won't close until we take away the last shred of his dignity?
129
Such a rich phrase, right?
130
Let's break it down.
131
Harvey's saying that Gerald is taking from Mr. Cooper the last piece of his dignity, of self-respect he has left from his legacy, the company he founded.
132
Gerald is basically humiliating Cooper just because he can.
133
And now you won't close until we take away the last shred of his dignity?
134
Bingo.
135
Bingo is a way of saying exactly or you got it.
136
It comes from the game bingo where you shout bingo when you win.
137
In conversation, it means the other person has understood you correctly or hit the nail on the head.
138
By the way, that's another expression you could use.
139
Oh right, so she told Joellen who told Nick.
140
Yeah, you hit the nail on the head.
141
Well, that's not gonna happen.
142
Why the hell not?
143
Because I like Mr. Cooper and my firm doesn't operate in bad faith.
144
Oh, I see how it is.
145
Instead of working Cooper, you're working me.
146
In this context, to work someone means to try to manipulate them, usually using psychology or pressure tactics.
147
When Gerald says, instead of working Cooper, you're working me, he's accusing Harvey of manipulating and putting pressure on him who is actually his client, not Cooper.
148
So he follows with this insult.
149
Why don't you take your pansy attitude back in there and make him sign my deal?
150
Or I'll pay someone else your money to do it for me.
151
Pansy is an insulting term that suggests someone is weak, and is often used to question their masculinity or courage.
152
Gerald is going quite low here with his words, but Harvey's about to shut him down completely.
153
Let's watch.
154
which gave you everything you wanted, our fee was due and payable,
155
which is why at 730 I received confirmation of a wire transfer from escrow indicating payment in full.
156
Second, the way our agreement works is the minute Cooper signed the deal which gave you everything you wanted, our fee was due and payable.
157
Now Harvey drops the hammer.
158
If you hear that a fee is due and payable, that means payment is owed right now and must be paid immediately.
159
Our fee was due and payable, which is why at 730, I received confirmation of a wire transfer from escrow indicating payment in full.
160
And a wire transfer is a bank transfer.
161
It's the traditional kind of electronic payment sent directly from one bank account to another.
162
Escrow is a neutral site in a deal that holds the money during a transaction.
163
Think of it like a referee in basketball or football.
164
They hold the payment until all the conditions of the deal are met, then release it.
165
If you're buying a house, for example, escrow holds your initial payment until all the paperwork is complete.
166
So I'd say the ball is in your court, but the truth is your balls are in my fist.
167
When you say the ball is in your court, you mean it's the other person's turn to make decision or take action.
168
It comes from tennis.
169
When the ball is on your side of the court you have to hit it back.
170
In conversation it means the responsibility is now yours.
171
How'd it go?
172
Did you talk to Danny?
173
Nah, I just left him a very heartfelt message.
174
Balls in his court.
175
Good for you.
176
I'm proud of you.
177
But then Harvey says something even stronger.
178
Your balls are in my fist.
179
This is a vulgar metaphor meaning he has complete control over Gerald.
180
It's got him trapped.
181
There's nothing Gerald can do.
182
Then Harvey uses Gerald's own insult against him.
183
Now I apologize if that image is too pansy for you, but I'm comfortable enough with my manhood to put it out there.
184
Basically, he's saying he's mainly
185
or confident enough in himself to use bold even vulgar language as he says to put it out there.
186
We got paid before Gerald signed the deal.
187
What are you talking about?
188
This is a memo about some fire drill on Tuesday.
189
Memo is short for memorandum.
190
It's a written message used in offices to communicate information.
191
It's usually brief and to the point, like meeting at 3 p.m or office closed Friday.
192
A fire drill is a practice situation to prepare for fire emergencies.
193
Some schools and offices do them regularly.
194
The alarm goes off, everyone leaves the building, and then you go back inside.
195
It's not a real fire, just practice.
196
So yeah, Harvey was just bluffing.
197
He never actually received confirmation of payment.
198
He was just holding up a random memo about a fire drill and pretending it was proof they'd been paid.
199
And Gerald believed him because Harvey sold it so confidently.
200
That's what makes Harvey such a great closer.
201
He convinced Gerald that the deal was done and the money was already paid, which took away all of Gerald's negotiating power.
202
And it worked.
203
You're the blue team captain, you get to wear a fire hat.
204
This scene is a masterclass in negotiation, not just English.
205
Harvey doesn't just use advanced words he uses psychology timing
206
and a good old bluff to force gerald to do the right thing
207
and honor the deal he originally agreed to by the way

इस पाठ के बारे में
इस पाठ में, हम "Suits" टीवी शो के पहले एपिसोड़ से एक दृश्य का उपयोग करके उन्नत अंग्रेजी सीखेंगे। इस दृश्य में, हम न केवल संवादों को सुनेंगे, बल्कि महत्त्वपूर्ण वाक्यांशों और शब्दों को भी जानेंगे जो अंग्रेजी बोलने की क्षमता को बढ़ाने में मदद करेंगे। इस मजेदार और उपयोगी पाठ के माध्यम से, आप अपने शब्दकोष में कई नए शब्द जोड़ेंगे और प्रवाह में सुधार करेंगे।
मुख्य शब्दावली और वाक्यांश
- Get screwed: जब कोई व्यापार में धोखा खाता है या उसे अनुचित स्थिति का सामना करना पड़ता है।
- Closer: वह व्यक्ति जो सौदों को सफलतापूर्वक अंतिम रूप देने में माहिर होता है।
- In jeopardy: जब किसी विषय या स्थिति का जोखिम होता है या वह खतरे में होती है।
- Bad faith: जब कोई व्यक्ति या पक्ष अनुचित तरीके से व्यवहार करता है।
- Acquisition: जब एक कंपनी दूसरी कंपनी को खरीदती है।
- Troubled situations: जटिल या कठिन परिस्थितियाँ जिनका समाधान आवश्यक है।
- Reject: किसी प्रस्ताव या विचार को अस्वीकार करना।
अभ्यास टिप्स
इस दृश्य को अंग्रेजी शैडोइंग के लिए सुनने पर विचार करें। इसके लिए, आप इसे छोटे टुकड़ों में सुन सकते हैं और फिर आवाज़ के साथ दोहराने का प्रयास कर सकते हैं। यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें करते समय, आप ध्यान दें कि बातचीत का प्रवाह कैसा है और आवाज़ में कितनी ऊर्जा है। हर बार जब आप सुनें, तो यह सुनिश्चित करें कि आप shadowing तकनीक का उपयोग कर रहे हैं, जिससे आप मूल वक्ता की उच्चारण और ताल पर ध्यान केंद्रित कर सकें।
इस वीडियो की गति को ध्यान में रखते हुए, आप अपनी ज़बान को त्वरित और स्पष्ट बनाने के लिए अभ्यास करें। जब आप किसी दृश्य को shadow speech का उपयोग से दोहराते हैं, तो आप न केवल अपनी शब्दों की स्पष्टता में सुधार करेंगे, बल्कि अपनी आत्मविश्वास में भी वृद्धि करेंगे। अधिक अभ्यास के लिए, shadowspeaks का उपयोग करें ताकि आप और भी अधिक सटीकता से बोल सकें।
इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है | I've ordered · hasn't attended · has left |
| Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है | be cheated · be called · is owed |
| Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी | deals, which is · interim, which is · someone who hasn |
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
