[EP 59] I'm publishing this one day after the 2020 Presidential election. We don't have a president in the USA yet, so how about a VOCABULARY lesson? I'll talk at random about using SHOOT and SHOT is some expressions. I can't fit a transcription here, so you may need to pay attention, take notes, and listen to the podcast a few times! Some of the phrases you will hear:
To shoot a weapon, pistol shots
to shoot past to shoot a look, email, message
shoot a photo / photo shoot / nice shot (photo)
Shoot! (polite exclamation) to shoot / (sports)
Shoot - go ahead and ask me
shoot the breeze / bull s
shoot your mouth off
shoot yourself in the foot
to shoot for something, have as a goal to take a shot (attempt)
a shot in the dark
take your best shot
to shoot down, get shot down
shot - ruined, exhausted
Not mentioned: a shot - a small glass of alcohol, a medical injection
to shoot up - to fire many bullets, to inject drugs
to shoot pool - play billiards
There are probably others I can't think of, sorry!
