Hello and welcome to news Review the program where we show you how to use the language from the latest news stories in your everyday English.

We've got a story about a sporting surprise.

Okay, let's find out more from this BBC World Service bulletin.

For the first time in 60 years, Italy have failed to qualify for the football World Cup finals.

The four time winners of the competition were held to a nil nil draw by Sweden in the second leg of their playoff in Milan.

So a bad day for Italy, whose international football team has failed to qualify for the World Cup.

This is strange because they're four time winners of the World Cup.

They drew with Sweden Nil nil that 00 And it's the first time that this has happened to them in 60 years.

Many of the newspapers in Italy are describing it as apocalyptic, dear, the end of the world end of the end of the footballing world.

Okay, Well, you've been looking around at the various news and sports websites at this story, and you've picked out three words and expressions that we can use in our everyday English I have What are they?

Scathing, goes ballistic and goes begging.

Okay, scathing goes ballistic and goes begging.

So our first headline comes from gold dot com and says goodbye to the mummies who control Italian football.

Paolo Cannavaro in scathing attack after World Cup failure.

Exactly Now, interestingly, this is a Norse word, and we actually still have the verb today.

To scathe and to scathe means to hurt or to harm.

However, we don't use it very much, and actually it's used in its adjectival forms.

There to adjectival forms and scathing is one of them, which is a lovely, newsy word because it's extremely confrontational.

It's very aggressive, and it's very, very critical.

And of course, newspapers often report on what other people have said.

So it's an extremely useful word within the context of newspapers, and we use this when we're when we're offering a comment or an attack or a remark evaluation.

It colic eight's very strongly with attack comment, remark and report and other things of that nature.

Yeah, um, we can also use the word unscathed, which means unhurt, not damaged it all.

Now, do you remember when we talk to the boss this morning about our new show?

No, no, he gave was a pretty scathing report what he thought about, all right, It was a scathing attack.

And it would, However, I emerged relatively unscathed.

Yeah, because you blamed it all on May so that we use the unscathed mean escape from a situation unharmed.

But we wouldn't say that somebody was scathed.

No, you can't be scathed by a football to the face or something like that.

Yeah, OK, so moving on to our next headline Our next headline comes from the sun and says, We need a win.

Italy midfielder Danielli de Rossi goes ballistic at coaching staff before World Cup exit.

So goes ballistic suddenly becomes very angry.

And actually the word ballistic comes from Greek and it means to throw objects.

And you can imagine that goes ballistic means become suddenly very angry.

So you can imagine somebody getting angry and throwing things around because they've lost their temper.

And this is a word that we associate often with missile.

Absolutely so missiles thes ballistic missiles are propelled, more thrown Fords.

And that's where the word ballistic comes, Something interesting else.

Something else which is interesting is the word go in this case because obviously people know the word go meaning to travel.

But in this case, the word go means become so.

For example, if you if you're afraid of needles and you have an injection, you might go white dip or somebody can go missing A cat, for example, can go missing.

Yeah, synonyms of go ballistic can be see red, lose your cool or become hot under the collar.

You kind of went ballistic earlier, didn't you Didn't.

Well, I thought English for cats was a fantastic idea personally, Yeah, but there's no need to start throwing things around.

Three thing it was it wasn't acceptable in the office, and I do apologize.

Okay, let's have a look at our last headline.

So our last headline comes from India today and says Italy shocked after World Cup birth goes, begging goes, begging is free to be taken.

Okay, because I thought begging was asking for money or for food or for some form of charity.

Well, you're not wrong as usual, but if a person goes begging than they ask, they go out and try to find money or food or charity.

But if something goes begging, it means that it's free to be taken by anybody who wants it.

Kind of the opposite of the meaning that you expect.

So, for example, there was a party in the office, yet a different department, not ours on DA.

They had a load of food left over and well, that food went begging.

We came downstairs and maybe asking at other sandwiches, going begging, can we?

And they were like, Yeah, help yourselves.

Well, that data my So it doesn't mean that the food was asking for money that would be ridiculous means that it was available was a very little people in need.

Indeed, anybody including beggars way have, ah recap a vocabulary.

We, of course, have our Facebook challenge on ditz.

On a sporting theme, Italy's World Cup qualifier ended nil nail.

Now nil means zero and is associated with football.

Can you match these sports to their scoring terms?

So here are the scoring terms first, and then I'll tell you what the sports are and we'll see how people got on.

See a century d A bull's eye on the sports one archery to rugby, three cricket and four tennis.

Well, I'm pleased to say that people did very well.

A century is associated with cricket and a bull's eye is associated with archery.

And I've got a few people who got that right.
