Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Verb Phrase 139. The verb phrase today is to

slap with. So usually to slap somebody with something. All right let's take a

基礎受動態

look at the note here. If someone is slapped with something,  he or she

receives a punishment from someone. Usually someone in authority,  especially

a fine or lawsuit. So yeah usually only somebody like the police or somebody

from a government agency could probably give you a fine. Or a lawsuit too.  A

regular person could do that to you too.  But that's also kind of a punishment. All

right. Let's look at a ... we have three examples here. All right.   Example number one.  He

was slapped with a fine of two hundred US dollars for urinating in public. Yes.

this is if somebody peed in public. Even though some people do this they can get

away with it,  technically it's illegal. If you get caught by a policeman he can

actually write you a ticket. You're not supposed to pee in public usually if it

is, it's usually usually a man. And then you know maybe,  maybe he had too much to

drink. That's one of the reasons why sometimes that might end up happening.

All right. Let's look at number two here.  Over the years McDonald's has been

slapped with numerous frivolous lawsuits.  Yeah. Well a frivolous lawsuit is one of

those lawsuits you think is ridiculous.  That maybe  ...nobody should bring a lawsuit

like this because it almost seems to be too stupid. But,  but they did pay up on

some.  I don't know,  I don't know if McDonald's made a mistake the first time.

They paid that lady money for spilling coffee on her own lap and you know,  kind

of nearer genital area too . But anyway she was an old woman and they,  they ended up

settling.  I think they settled out of court,  but,  but,  but since somebody got

money for this,  I think some others tried to follow in the future for other cases

of trying this. Now I don't know if any of the others were successful but others

did try.  I remember there was a woman once that was trying to sue

McDonald's because she bit into those hot apple pies. Actually,  their apple pies

are very hot. They usually microwave them and she said she burnt her lips and she

wanted compensation for that and I remember,  I remember that article a long

time ago and her husband was actually asking for money too because he says

because his wife's lips got burnt that they could not be romantic  for a long

period of time. So but anyway there's something like this is usually thought

of as a frivolous lawsuit. All right.  And let's look at number three here. You

can be slapped with fine of up to 250 u.s. dollars for not picking up your

dog's poop or your dog's poo poo in New York City. So that's... I think that's one

of the most recent numbers as far as the fine is concerned. Yeah.  I remember when ... I

remember when I was young and I was a kid and it first started,  I think they used to

call it the pooper scooper law. You know the law where you first started having

to pick up the dog's poo poo after walking it. Anyway,  I hope you got it.  I

hope it's clear. Thank you for your time.  Bye-bye.
