Learn the English Phrases "in good shape" and "in bad shape"

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases "in good shape" and "in bad shape" In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase in good shape. When we say something is in good shape, it means that, well, let's say we're talking about a vehicle. That would mean it has no rust on it. The engine runs really, really well. The thing is in good shape. The thing is, not falling apart. That would be the opposite. You can also use this to talk about people. If you say he's in good shape, it usually means he has some muscles and he's healthy. He's not overweight. He's in good shape. The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is the phrase in bad shape. Now, if I was talking about a vehicle and I said it was in bad shape, that would mean it's probably rusty. It probably has holes in the side. When you try to start it, it might not start the first time it is in bad shape. But when we talk about people, this means something slightly different. If you're in good shape, you're healthy and you have muscles and you're not overweight. But when you're in bad shape, it sometimes means that you're hurt. After a car accident, you might say, oh, he's in bad shape. He has a broken arm and he has a broken leg. Then that person would be in bad shape. So it doesn't mean the opposite of healthy. It more means, like, injured. So to review, if a car is in good shape, it means that it looks really good. The paint looks good, the engine runs very smoothly. If a person's in good shape, it means that they're healthy and muscular and go to the gym a lot. If a car or something else is in bad shape, it means it probably has rust on it and the engine doesn't run well. If a computer is in bad shape, it means it just doesn't turn on all the time. And if a person is in bad shape, it usually is used to describe them after something like a car accident when they have, injuries. But, hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Mahsa. Hello, Bob. Oh, hello, Mr. Bob. You haven't been active on this channel in the last few months. What was the reason in my response, And I have said this a number of times, so sorry if you've heard this a million times. I broke my collarbone last summer, and it has taken a while for me to feel a hundred percent. I also had a very busy schedule in the fall at school. Now I'm feeling much better, and my schedule is much nicer. So, thanks, Mahsa, for that, question. And, it was fun to be able to kind of let you know the reason and I'll explain in a little more detail. I didn't just break my collarbone. I also tore a hamstring. And that seems to have caused it to take a long time for me to heal. But I have been feeling pretty good since last fall. But in the school year, there are semesters. And last semester, or in my school year, not every school has that. I had, to teach period two and three. So I basically was at work almost like it was full time. When I normally teach part time, I either teach for most of the morning or most of the afternoon. And so that was a little different for me. I've never had that schedule before. And it was, hard to get used to. I found I was spending more time at work than I should have been. By the way, this van, it's in good shape, sort of, but it is starting to rust a little bit. It's our least reliable vehicle. It's not on the road right now. We take it off the road in the winter, because we don't have as many drivers. Two of my kids are at university. So yeah, my semester, last semester was really busy. Now I'm teaching in the afternoons. So when I go to work, on a Monday, when, I go to work this Monday, I will... Oh, by the way, it's the weekend right now. I'm recording this early. I should have told you that. Not that that's that important. Anyways, I don't have to go to work until about 10 or 11 in the morning. Anyways, that's it for this little short lesson. I'll see you next week with another short English lesson.
