Justin... hi, sorry, I have to apologize to Justin Bieber, because I have already made

You might be asking, "What are you talking about, you just started the video?"

And now, I'm living in Canada and they're very - they're world-famous for saying "sorry".

But even Canadians can learn a lesson from this particular lesson, because there's a

time to use "excuse me" and a time to use "sorry".

I guess in this song he couldn't say "excuse me" because he already screwed up.

We're going to explain on the board here.

And I've put them in order for a specific reason, because they happen at different times.

We say "excuse me", "excuse me" is a phrase, okay, because it's got more than two words.

It's not a word, it's a phrase, but I broke it down and said, "Well, let's look at excuse".

In other words, you're about to see something and when you judge or think about it, you

need to do it with forgiveness in your heart.

Which means you need to give me some space and not to judge me badly or be too - too

Also, it means to overlook, it means to not look at something, to go by it.

So, if you overlook something - imagine there's a white wall and there's a little black mark

Now, you go "The wall is perfectly clean, but there's a little black mark."

You're not going to destroy the wall, you'll just overlook it and say "Okay, I'm just going

to ignore that because it's a small blemish or a small - a small mark and it doesn't destroy

So, when you say, "excuse me", you can be apologizing to someone.

In this case, it's a general rule, we can say excuse me is usually said before you have

And to give you examples where this might come in true, or be true, the first one is

Now, in a restaurant, you'll find a lot of Canadians or - not Canadians, Americans, British

people, they'll go "Excuse me, excuse me", because they want to get your attention.

They're directing to get someone to look at them.

They haven't done anything wrong, but they do need your attention.

Remember we talk about forgiveness, overlook, and apologize?

So, overlook me yelling in the restaurant, "excuse me", because I actually need your help.

I don't know your name, your name night be "Susie", but I don't know Susie, so I have

So, forgive me for calling you like that, but we don't know each other well enough yet.

Now, imagine I'm working at my desk and you need my attention, right?

You might say, "Excuse me", because I'm interrupting you, right?

And we go up to here, when we go, I'm apologizing for interrupting you during your work, right?

It's very polite, because in saying that, I'm acknowledging or I know that you're working

and I respect that, but I need your attention.

And the third one we have down here is: ask somebody to move.

Now, I'm apologizing in a way because I am interrupting you, but I need your attention

So, if you're getting on a bus and someone's sitting there and they have their bag there

and you go, "Excuse me, can I have that seat?"

Okay, excuse me, I need your attention, I don't know your name.

I'm interrupting you because you're sitting down, maybe you're playing a video game, I

Now, there are some exceptions to that, where I might say, "I'm sorry to interrupt" when

- sorry, let me come back to you on that one, because I actually want to do that over here

This is an exception that I will come back to.

Let's go over to "sorry", seeing as I started there and I'm sorry I did.

I'll go over to "sorry" to show you how that's different.

"Sorry" is an adjective, so right at the bat we can see that - right off the bat, sorry,

we can see that an adjective is different than a phrase.

So, even in the formation they're different, right?

When we talk about "sorry", it means to feel distress, something is stressing you out.

It means also offer sympathy, which you don't see over here, right?

And it's an apology, so this is where they come together and this is where people have

Because we know "sorry" is an apology and "excuse me" can be used to apologize for doing

something, but apologize is a verb and an apology is a noun, okay?

So, we're offering two different things when we use these words, and we want to keep that

Now, here's the other difference, besides the structure.

We usually say sorry after  you've done something wrong.

We use "excuse me" before we've done something, so we're saying we know what we're about to

do isn't comfortable or isn't good, and I want to bring that attention.
