انگلیسی با سیمپسون ها _ 3

It’s time for learning English with

Simpsons.

Welcome to part 3.

This part is a little different, so

let’s dive in!

Hello, Flanders.

Doing a little yard work, huh?

Who told?

Marge, beer me.

Say, Simpson,

I’ve got some time-release granules

that’ll get rid of that crabgrass in just a half-a-jif.

To get rid of something means

to remove something that

you do not want any longer

or you can say:

get rid of someone

it means to find a way to make someone leave

because you do not want the person

to be with you any longer.

What are you talking about?

Where?

Well,

There, there,

and there’s a big patch over there.

There’s nothing wrong with crabgrass!

It just has a bad name, that’s all.

Everyone would love it if it had a cute name, like

elfgrass.

Crabgrass is a type of unwanted grass

crab by itself is this

and elf is this

that’s the reason why he says:

It just has a bad name, that’s all.

Everyone would love it if it had a cute name, like

“elfgrass.

You may be right.

Marge!

Where’s the Duff?

Oh, well, we’re all out, Homer.

No

Would you like some fruit juice?

Don’t toy with me, woman.

To toy with someone means

to not care seriously about someone

or about their feelings,

especially during a romantic relationship.

Don’t toy with me, woman.

Couldn’t help overhearing, Simpson.

I’ve got some ice-cold suds in the rumpus room,

if you’d like to join me.

Well, uh,

okay.

What the heck,

I’ve earned a little break.

What the heck

used to say

you will do something although you know

you should not do it.
