“My clothes are really quite grubby after I worked so hard at the farm.”
Slang of the day: grubby
Meaning: dirty, messy
Usage: Do you ever wash your clothes? They are always so grubby.
Dialog:
Peter – I’ve been working all day out on the ranch.
Paul – You don’t say…
Peter – I’m serious, I rode my horse for probably 4 hours checking on the cattle.
Paul – I know you did.
Peter – How can you tell?
Paul – I can tell by your grubby clothes and your smell.
Peter – Oh.
Another great lesson as I expected.
A huge thank you from my behalf however I’m pretty sure that all of English Guru’s fans are on the same page from this point of view.
