0:01 Welcome to twominuteenglish.com. Teaching you English through two-minute lessons.
0:07 In this lesson, we will see some phrases and words you can use to complain about someone.
0:19 Hey, what happened? You look upset today.
0:23 Actually I am a little worried.
0:25 What is it?
0:27 I haven’t been feeling very well lately so I couldn’t study much.Tests are near and I’m afraid I might flunk.
0:33 Well, perhaps you should talk to Professor Dean. Maybe he can let you take the tests a little later.
0:39 I tried that already and he didn’t let me. How can he be like that?
0:43 After all I’m just human. I get sick. It happens.
0:47 Yeah, go talk to him again, Anny. He may reconsider
0:57 I’m so stressed out right now I can barely breathe!
1:01 Gosh, calm down, Katy. What’s going on?
1:04 It’s Eric. I can’t stand him anymore.
1:08 What did he do?
1:10 He promised he’d meet me today and called it off at the last minute
1:14 Who knows? Maybe something urgent came up. I’m sure there’s a good explanation.
1:20 You don’t get it.This is not the first time. He always does that and never even bother to apologize!
1:32 Jack! I’m fed up with my wife, man
1:35 What is it this time ?
1:37 She’s always cribbing about one thing or another. She’s always saying I don’t have time for her.
1:44 Buddy, why don’t you just take her out to a nice place from time to time?
1:51 That’s the thing. Every time I try, she tells me she has other plans.
1:56 I don’t get her at all. Women are just too complicated.
2:04 I guess you are right. I love my wife but sometimes I kindda hate her too.
2:10 Tell me about it!
2:18 What happened, girl? Why such a troubled expression?
2:22 I don't know why Mr. Webster is always shouting at me.
2:25 Did something happen at the office?
2:28 Yes. He started shouting at me in front of everyone
2:31 I know he’s my boss. But that doesn’t give him the right to humiliate me.
2:36 You know what? You should tell him that such behaviour is unacceptable.
2:41 I can try but he never listens to me.
2:44 Tell him anyways! I guess some bosses are just mean for no reason.
2:50 And I believe I need another job!
2:56 Actually I am a little worried.
