Hello everyone. Justin here and welcome
back to another Bizmates for Beginners
0:00:05.279,0:00:09.840
video lesson where every week, we
introduce a new idiom, phrase or
0:00:09.840,0:00:14.849
expression that you can use in your
daily business conversation. And this
0:00:14.849,0:00:21.330
week, everyone, we are going to learn
"something is booming." All right, so to
0:00:21.330,0:00:26.340
find out what it means and how to use it.
Please stay tuned, but first, everyone, as
0:00:26.340,0:00:31.019
always, let's begin with a quick review
of last week's class.
0:00:31.019,0:00:38.700
All right, so imagine I asked you "Is the
client's office far from here?" And well, in
0:00:38.700,0:00:45.360
fact, the client's office is very close to
the station. So how do you say that using
0:00:45.360,0:00:49.920
the expression from last week? I'll give
you five seconds. Okay. Are you ready?
0:00:49.920,0:01:01.199
All right, go. Okay, and time is up. If you
said "it's a stone's throw away from the
0:01:01.199,0:01:04.589
station" then that's exactly right. Well
done, everyone.
0:01:04.589,0:01:10.260
And thank you for remembering last
week's class. Okay, so let's move on to
0:01:10.260,0:01:15.150
"something is booming." Now this is what I sometimes hear.
0:01:15.150,0:01:19.830
All right, I'm talking to my good friend
and colleague Taro. We're just catching
0:01:19.830,0:01:25.799
up. I'm seeing how things are going. So I
ask him. "Taro, how's business these days?"
0:01:25.799,0:01:33.570
Taro responds by saying "Great! Business
is rapidly growing." All right. Fantastic.
0:01:33.570,0:01:38.790
I'm glad to hear that. Now okay, this is
fine. Business is rapidly growing. But it
0:01:38.790,0:01:47.850
feels a little bit stiff. So Taro can say
this instead: "Great! business is booming."
0:01:47.850,0:01:54.060
All right. So whenever something is
expanding rapidly, it's... you know, becoming
0:01:54.060,0:01:58.829
more and more successful. It's making
lots of money. It's booming. All right,
0:01:58.829,0:02:06.270
so for example, "Recently, the economy is
booming" or "Recently, the IT sector is
0:02:06.270,0:02:11.640
booming." Okay. So keep that in mind. So
whenever something is successful, it's
0:02:11.640,0:02:16.810
getting lots of traffic.
It's... it's expanding. Okay? And it's making
0:02:16.810,0:02:21.510
lots of money. It's becoming very
successful. It's booming. All right. So
0:02:21.510,0:02:26.170
pronunciation, everyone, it's as you see
it here. "business is booming." So please
0:02:26.170,0:02:31.560
repeat after me. Business is booming. Your turn.
0:02:32.490,0:02:38.580
Good. Now after my question. So how's
business these days?
0:02:39.480,0:02:45.900
"Great! business is booming. Okay so please remember this for our review next week.
0:02:45.900,0:02:50.610
All right. So our bonus question this
week is another way to say "It's
0:02:50.610,0:02:56.110
difficult to decide between A or B."
Allright, if you know how to say that
0:02:56.110,0:03:00.520
using one of the expressions I covered
in one of my previous video lessons,
0:03:00.520,0:03:04.630
please feel free to leave it in the
comments below. But if you don't know
0:03:04.630,0:03:07.930
what the answer is, well take a few
minutes to see if you can find the
0:03:07.930,0:03:12.700
answer, okay? All right everyone, so that is it from me this week. Thank you always
0:03:12.700,0:03:16.720
for watching the channel. Have a great
weekend, everyone and I'll see you next
0:03:16.720,0:03:18.810
time.
