Hello and welcome to the vocabulary lesson for the conversation Drunk Driving. In this conversation, Joe and I are just talking about different friends or different people that weve known that have gotten into trouble for drinking and driving. Okay, lets begin. * * * * *
Joe first says... He exhales first. Exhale just means he breathes out. So he says, I just saw John at the store. And I say, Well what happened? You sound kind of bummed. Bummed meaning you sound kind of sad. Joe says, Well, he told me that Melissa just got busted again for drunk driving. Busted. Now this is an idiom that means basically to get into trouble. So Melissa just got in trouble again for drunk driving. Busted. An example of busted would be: Todd got busted for driving too fast because he was driving 120 miles per hour. Busted. And then I say, Oh, no. And Joe says, Yeah... And I say, Thats terrible. I mean thats really bad. Or its horrible. Its really bad. Joe says, thats her second offense in the last year. Second offense meaning, thats the second time shes been arrested. Or thats the second time shes gotten into trouble. And I say, Jeez. Like, wow... I cant believe that. And Joe says, I mean, she just... I think that she just got finished with the court case from the last time when she got busted. And that was like, she got busted like ten months ago. She doesnt even have a license.
