About this listen
This week I talk my experiences in Dubai, movie vocabulary, and passive tense.
1. Beating Around the Bush
Meaning: To talk about unnecessary things. Obscurate/to hint at something
Example: When I asked my secretary about the missing file and documents, she was beating around the bush.
2. Be in a Tight Corner/spot.
Meaning: Being in a difficult situation.
Example: Radha’s low grades despite her constant efforts has put her in a very tight corner.
3. At the 11th Hour
Meaning: At the exact last moment.
Example: While leaving for Moscow, Ethan kept his mobile phone charger in the bag until the 11th hour.
