  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Adjective Phrase 34. The adjective phrase today is

  • clean cut. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. Someone who is clean cut is

  • very neat in appearance and is usually well-behaved. Okay.

  • It is mostly used about men. Yeah. I never really hear anybody say a clean-cut woman.

  • It's mostly used about men, especially a clean shaven man who also have good

  • manners and it sort of implies good morals. It's not really in the definition

  • when you look at the definition. It doesn't have that, but just like remember some

  • words have what we call connotations. They have other feelings that are

  • connected to them and I think this word of clean cut has sort of those that has that

  • meaning attached to it as well. Okay. Let's continue here. The idea alludes to

  • to be clean. You need to cut away anything dirty or messy and perhaps

  • indirectly or by extension anything immoral or improper. Okay. Let's continue.

  • Let's give three examples here that kind of cover this. When Brian Epstein became

  • the manager of the Beatles, the old group, The Beatles he made sure they had short

  • haircuts and dressed in suits while performing to give them a more

  • conservative clean-cut image. Yeah. He was the one that was actually going to bring

  • them out. Remember this was back in the very , very early 1960s and you know I

  • think the Beatles were he from performing before that like in bars in

  • Germany and stuff. And you know he tried to clean them up, so that they would be

  • more presentable to the public. So that they could reach big-time. So that's what

  • he did. Remember and you know, the entire world was more conservative back at that

  • time in the late 50s early 1960s. So he wanted to give them a clean-cut image , so

  • that they would be they would be thought of as more proper

  • or more suitable. You know, to spread to the mass audience. Okay. Let's look at

  • number two here. She is not attracted to men with beards, ponytails, tattoos etc.

  • All right. She prefers a man to have a more clean-cut look. All right. Yeah. You know,

  • different women like different things. Just like different men like different

  • things too. And there are some women out there ... Some women like men with ponytails.

  • Some men women like men with beards. Some, some like the more clean-cut look. It's

  • just the way things are. All right. And number three here. That company requires

  • all its managers to have a clean-cut appearance. Yes. No facial hair. No

  • ponytails or unusual piercings like you know they probably don't want nose

  • piercings. Or a lip piercing or even a neck or something like that. They don't

  • want that. If it's a woman manager I'm sure she could have earrings and even

  • then if they allowed earrings at all they'd probably still want them to be

  • very small and very short while they're at work. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got it. I

  • hope it was clear. I hope it was informative. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
