Shawshank Redemption اصطلاحات فیلم

Hey

Today we’re gonna take a look at some expressions

from the number 1 movie on the IMDB list

the Shawshank Redemption

Without delay let’s get it started:

I hereby order you to serve two life sentences, back to back.

I hereby order you to serve two life sentences

back to back.

As a result

I order you to spend your life in prison

twice and continuously.

But why two life sentences?

We can live only once!

A life sentence of course means

spending the rest of your life in prison.

But in most parts of the United States

a person with a life sentence can ask for an early release

called parole

after 15 years in prison.

So, this man must stay in prison for almost 30 years

before even asking for a parole.

What I mean is do you think she’d go behind your back

try to hamstring you?

do you think she’d go behind your back try to hamstring you?

do you think she’d go behind your back try to hamstring you?

He means:

do you think she would do something secretly

or without your permission?

Or make you stop from what you need to do.

Example:

friends never go behind each other’s backs.

Like James and I

we trust each other and never betray each other.

he greased them both.

he greased them both

Meaning

he saw his wife was cheating on him with a golf player

Then he killed both of them.

When the verb grease is used as a slang term,

it is defined as killing.

Basically, slangs are the words that

we would hear from criminals.

This story’s about criminals

So big source of slangs it is.

Alright

If you wanna watch this movie

you can find it on Zabanshenas,

if you don’t have the app installed already

you can install it from the link in the bio.

Ok…let’s move on!

What amazes me most is you were taken in by it.

What amazes me most is you were taken in by it.

Be taken in by someone or something

equals to be fooled.

Example:

it makes me upset many people are taken in by companies

claiming that “the customer matters the most”
