Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases SIGHT UNSEEN and OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase sight unseen. Now we use this when we're talking about buying something that we haven't looked at. Here's an example. If I was to go online on Facebook Marketplace, it's a popular place to go when you're trying to buy something used. And if I saw a car and I called the person and I said, I'm going to send you $10,000 over the Internet for that car, I would be buying it sight unseen. What that means is I didn't go and look at the car before I bought it. If I saw a house online and the price was really good, and if I was a multimillionaire, which I'm not, I might call the realtor and say, I want to buy that house. And I would then buy it sight unseen. Meaning that I didn't even bother to go and look at the house to see what it looked like. I bought it sight unseen. WANT FREE ENGLISH LESSONS?

When there are no cookies in the house, I don't eat cookies because when something is out of sight, it's not in your mind, it's out of sight, out of mind. If I see cookies, then I want to eat cookies. So it's best for me. Sorry, I'm trying to keep my back to the wind. Let me shift a little bit here. It's best for me if things are out of sight, out of mind. If I don't see cookies, if I don't see cake, if I don't see donuts, then I don't crave them and I don't eat them. So to review, when you buy something sight unseen, it means you buy it without going to look at it. It's always best to look at something before you buy it. But sometimes you might buy it sight unseen. And then when something is out of sight, out of mind, it means you can't see it. So then you don't think about it. But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Duncan Kim. Thanks for watching. Thanks for teaching and my response. You're welcome. So what Duncan's saying there is I often at the end of my videos will say thanks for watching. But Duncan feels that I deserve thanks. And this goes back to when I taught the phrase. By the way, thanks Duncan for the comment when I taught the phrase when something's a win win. I've mentioned this before. I like making these videos. It's really nice to be outside making a video today. And you like watching them. It's a win, win. We both benefit. And just so you know, I do get a little bit of money from YouTube. There are ads and you watch the ads and I get a little bit of money. But it's, it's a win, win situation. So I do thank people for watching and people do thank me for making the videos. So it's a, it's a win, win. We both say thank you and we both say you're welcome. Anyways, what can I say? It is really nice to be out here making a video again. It is really nice to be feeling a lot better. I'm not going to go into any details, but yeah, I took a little bit of a break if you didn't notice. And it's good to be back. I was excited because today I heard a student use the phrase sight unseen and I was like, there's the phrase. It's time to get things going again on this second channel. So again, you shouldn't buy things sight unseen, but maybe you're the kind of person that likes doing that. So anyways, what else was I going to mention? I did a video on my other channel. I'm not sure if you saw it. It was about how English conversation is important and that channel or that video was sponsored by Preply. And I did mention to them that I would mention the offer they have on a couple other videos as well. So if you look in the description below, there's a link to Preply, a place where you can find an English speaking partner.

Still got my winter coat on for some reason. But it looks like in a few weeks things should warm up. Thanks for watching. I'll see you in a couple days with another short English lesson. Bye.
