“Get out of hand”の意味と使い方 Bizmates初級ビジネス英会話 Point 199

Hello everyone! Great to see you again
and welcome to this week's video lesson

for Bizmates for Beginners. This week
everyone we are going to learn the

expression "get out of hand." So let's find
out how to use it and what it means but

first as always, let's do a quick review
of last week's expression. Alright

everyone, so imagine I ask you:
Will you apply for the overseas director post?

Now although you really want to apply for
the position, you feel that right now you

don't have the necessary skills or
qualifications. So, what do you say

everyone? How do you respond? I'll give
you five seconds, okay? You ready?

Alright go for it!

And time is up.
If you said "No. It's out of my league"

then that's exactly right and thank you
for remembering last week's expression

but remember with the right amount to
practice, dedication and passion, nothing

is "out of your league" right? Alright so
moving on to this week's expression

"get out of hand." This is what I sometimes hear...
Alright so I'm talking to my

colleague, Taro and I say: Taro. Man, we
have so many tasks recently. And he

agrees, so he says yes: It's difficult to
keep control.

OK I completely agree. When you have so many
things to do, it's hard to keep track of

everything. Alright now, although this expression is

OK, we can use something a little bit
more interesting and that is...

Yeah, it's really getting out of hand.
Alright so when something is kind of

crazy -- so crazy you can't control it -- it's
getting out of hand.

Alright so for example, imagine you
have 20 3-year olds and they're running

all over the place on the playground, you
can imagine it's really difficult to

keep control of all of these kids, right?
It's really crazy and it's really hard

to control them. So, the situation is
"getting out of hand" or you can even use

it in a different situation. For example
if it's raining really, really heavily,

it's so crazy, you can say "Man, the rain
is really getting out of hand." Okay?

Alright everyone so the pronunciation
is a very simple, it's as you see it here

however, when you say "out of" very quickly,
it'll sound like "outta" alright?

So when a native speaker is saying this
expression quickly, it'll sound like this...

gettin' outta hand, okay?
Gettin' outta hand. So we'll drop the

G here and we'll combine "out" and "of" so
it's gettin' outta hand, okay everyone?

Alright so please repeat after me.
Getting out of hand. Your turn.

Exactly right. Alright now after my sentence here:
Man, we have so many tasks recently.

Yeah, it's getting out of hand, okay? Alright perfect! So please remember this

for next time. Alright so moving on to
our bonus question this week, which is

another way to say: Yes, I am alright. If
you know the answer, leave it in the

comments below; you can find the answer
in one of our previous Bizmates for

Beginners video lessons, okay? Alright
everyone that is it for me this week,

thank you so much for watching the video,
have a great weekend and I'll see you

next time. Thank you.
