Learn the English Expressions "Sounds good!" and "Sounds bad!"

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English expressions SOUNDS GOOD! and SOUNDS BAD!

In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English expression sounds good. Now this is something we say to people when we are agreeing with them. If a friend of mine said, hey Bob, do you want to meet at the restaurant tomorrow at 08:00 in the morning for some breakfast, I might say, sounds good, I'll see you then. Sometimes Jen needs help with some work when I get home from school. And if Jen says, hey, when you get home tomorrow, can you come out and help me with something? I might say, sounds good. As soon as I get home I'll put my farm clothes on and I'll come out and help you with that. I usually don't wear my school clothes when I'm working on the farm. They would get muddy and my shirts wouldn't last as long. I'll talk about that more in a moment.

The other phrase I wanted to teach you today, or term or expression actually is sounds bad. And we also sometimes just say, that doesn't sound good. And this is something we say when something isn't good. So if I knew someone who went to the hospital and they needed to get x rays, I might say, oh, sounds bad. Do you think they broke a bone? If someone says to me, I wrote an English test a couple weeks ago, I haven't got my results back yet, but I don't think I did very well, I might say, oh, that sounds bad. Notice sometimes we put that in front that that sounds bad. Hopefully you did okay.

So to review, when you say sounds good, it means you're happy about something, you're looking forward to something, you think it's good. Hey Bob, can you make a video next week for us? Sounds good. I'll get right on it. And if someone says, sounds bad, it usually means you think a situation isn't good. If someone says, there was a windstorm the other day and lots of trees fell over, you might say, oh, sounds bad there. I hope things will be okay. Sometimes the electricity goes out too and it sounds worse than it is, so. But you still might say, ooh, sounds bad. I hope the electricity comes back on soon.

So to review... Oh, did I review already? I think I did, didn't I? Oh, I'm losing track of what I'm doing. Let's look at a comment from a previous video. Let's do that instead. And if I did forget to review, then, oh well, I didn't do it this time. I think I did though. Anyways, it's been a long week. This is how my brain works. This is from Ünsal and Ünsal, I shortened your comment a bit. I hope that's okay with you. It was a great comment. I just didn't have time to read all of it.

Ünsal says hi teacher Bob, all your shirts look brand new. How do you manage to preserve to preserve your shirts for many years? I'm saying the word wrong. How do you manage to preserve your shirts for many years without fading or wearing out? If you don't have several of the same ones, can you share the secret? And my response? I have slowly cycled through some of them, but I do have shirts that are 20 years old. This one is in fact that old. They are good enough to wear underneath a sweater, but not quite good enough to wear by themselves because I usually wear blue plaid, many of them might look similar in my videos. So thanks Ünsal for that.

Yeah, my blue shirts. So one of the things I've noticed is that because I work inside and I'm not in the sun, and because as a teacher, I don't do any physical labor. Like, I'm not lifting things or moving things throughout the day, I think my shirts just last longer. My clothes that I wear on the farm do not last as long as the clothes I wear for work at school. And also, I'm not in
