(Rachel) Today we're starting a new series.

We're going to teach you about idioms to be heard in real life this week.

様態の副詞

I got the idea from this series from our podcast which we did together and we actually cancelled.

Oh this is my husband David by the way for anyone who doesn't know this is David.

and we were doing a podcast together last year uh that was pretty popular.

People liked it and they liked hearing David's voice and David's perspective.

And since we didn't have time to keep the podcast going I thought okay let's start a

So this is gonna be a little more conversational and I've been wanting to do a series like

this for a while where we talked about idioms and phrasal verbs that we're hearing in real

Uh because throughout the week, there's so many different interesting idioms that come

up and so I wanted to be able to share them with you.

So, to start, the Superbowl was just a couple of weeks ago, now David and I live in Philadelphia

and David grew up not so far from Philly.

(Rachel) And so David has been an Eagles fan for a

And uhm did that include some lean years when there weren't many wins?

(David) Right, there's been a lot of lean years

(Rachel) So this was a uh, very big deal of course.

(Rachel) First ever Superbowl win for Philadelphia.

If you didn't see it, we have a tape of it so just come on over and we'll watch it together.

(Rachel) Uhm But when we were watching the game, one

So a commentator is someone who is paid by the TV station to comment on what's happening,

One of the commentators said this idiom: Nick's Foles' confidence is through the roof.

So what is that mean to be through the roof?

That would be another idiom you could use.

So if your confidence is through the roof.

You're feeling great about yourself, about your abilities.

(David) Right and in this instance it meant that he

He was so confident that he was not even thinking about what he was doing.

He was just making all the plays that he needed to make and he was incredible.

I mean he just threw the ball and bam, it was there.

Now, part of what's crazy about Nick Foles is that he was, he is not the main quarterback

It means you are not what's gonna be planned on.

He got hurt but he's better, he's their starter is what they call that.

(Rachel) But when he gets injured, and you can't go

what you are planning on, you can't go on your best player then you have to go with

Maybe if you're having a party and you are not sure if you have enough food, maybe you

buy some frozen pizzas to have as a backup in case you run out.

Or people would say when they are applying to college they would say: This is my 1st

(Rachel) Right and easier one to get into, you think

your chances of getting in are higher, it's your backup.

So Nick Foles, the backup, wins the Superbowl, his confidence is through the roof, it was

We better stop now or this whole video will be about the Superbowl.

Actually, one other thing I wanted to say about the idiom 'through the roof.' is it

means really high level but it can also mean angry, mad, pissed off would be another way

Like you could say: My boss was through the roof or went, went through the roof.

(Rachel) My boss went through the roof when I lost

Or my parents went through the roof or hit the roof or you could say

(David) Yeah I think hit the roof is interchangeable.

I was thinking of another way to use this idiom 'through the roof' meaning really high

and I was thinking about 'there's some new construction on our block and how they're

pricing those houses so high, they're expensive.

And I was thinking you know housing, the housing market in our neighborhood is through the

(Rachel) And then that's funny because I'm talking

(David) We'll it's even better than that.
