nosy people so a lot of people did yesterday they stopped to watch what I

was doing they were very curious to find out what was going on in the place in

which they lived because there was a strange man standing on the street

corner but don't worry it was only me it was only me it's all right don't be

afraid by the way my name is mr. Duncan I teach English on YouTube and I've been

feeling okay today not too bad also we have a mitt and Maria again Pedro all

paid Belmont is here today say hello and

maybe goodbye as well hello also to Palmyra Anna Rosso so many

people are already with me on the live chat we have a lot of things to talk

about today one of the subjects we'll be discussing

is something that was brought up yesterday so someone brought up this

particular subject yesterday so soon we will be talking all about time how to

express time in English words connected with time also I will be having a little

contest as well I will be showing some of the times on the clock so there will

be some times displayed on the clock here in the studio and what I want you

to tell me is what the time is how to say it in English so we are going to

have a little bit of fun with that later on lots of words connected with time

also something else I want to mention I know we live in an age of equality

fairness everyone has now decided to be kind and nice to each other

well almost however there are people now who are starting to disagree with

certain words certain words that contain the male gender or the word man for

example we have man hole can you see that I know it's very tiny but I do have

a very small man hole so here is the word man hole as you can see the word

man hole has the word man in it it contains the word man so man hole is an

opening in the ground normally used to hide drains or sewage

or maybe the opening to a utility area so something that you have to access

that is underground you normally have a manhole so these days people are saying

mr. Duncan and everyone else on planet earth maybe you shouldn't be saying

manhole anymore perhaps we should have a new word instead of manhole what do you

think another one is mankind so when we talk about humanity when we talk about

people human beings Homo sapiens we talk about mankind so everything that happens

everything that humans do the evolution of humans we often talk about the

evolution of mankind mankind the events that have shaped humanity we often used

the word mankind so again another word that perhaps we could change to

something else what about people kind or person kind here's another one if I can

get it out of my hand oh here's another one

man hours so we have man hours man hours this relates to the number of hours that

a person has worked or the amount of time it will take to do something so

when we say man hours we are actually saying how long something will take or

how many hours it will require for something to be done so how many man

hours will it take to build that wall how many man hours so once again we are

using the word man in a phrase or word so man hours how

many man-hours will it take to build that wall how many man-hours will it

require to do that thing man-hours so the amount of time taken or the amount

of time it will take to do something oh here's another one

manpower manpower so we have man-hours and also manpower so manpower just

relates to the number of people required to do something maybe you need more

manpower it means you need more people to do something so you can see once

again we are using the word manner but is it is it a good thing or a bad thing

manpower manpower you need something Derner maybe something that takes a lot

of effort or work we often say manpower we need more manpower

we need more people to help then we have manhandle oh hello man handle a man

handle or to manhandle something because this is actually a verb you are using

this as a verb so man handle means to push someone or to shove a person so if

you are pushing a person around if you are pushing them around maybe you are

hitting them with your elbow or you are shaking them with your hands to shake a

person is to manhandle someone perhaps you are putting someone into a car by

force you are making them get into the car we can say that you are manhandling

them to treat someone roughly to push a person around is manhandle you

manhandle something here's another one oh here's an old one if you've ever seen

the film Titanic you might hear this phrase being used

man the lifeboats if you man the lifeboats it means you

get in to the lifeboats so you are telling everyone to get in to the

lifeboats the ship is starting to sink

man the lifeboats man the lifeboats it means you want people to get in to the

lifeboats you are using this as a distress call so you use this to tell

people to abandon the ship you must man the lifeboats to man

something is to control it to take control of something here's another one

man-sized so if something is man-sized it means it is larger than it normally

is so if something can be described as man-sized it is larger than normal so
