    Laura and Berwyn are two geniuses. They teach people through making them laugh. Their face expressions, emotions, all the details are just a masterpiece!

    In Germany it's nowadays quite common to use or add "-ish" in English conversations. I'm not sure where it came from, but I suspect stream services.

    Oh yes, -ish is used a lot by my friend from Yorkshire. Usually when I ask the time then he answers like…3ish. Thanks for the explanation. Love it!

    My English family loves to use "ish" together with time if they don't want to fix a time exactly like we usually do in Germany.
    "Let's meet at the pub at 5-ish."
    Means: Sometime after 5. It was hard for me as a German to get used to it. 🤣

    Etymologically this is the Megrelian genitive case ending. The same as in Polish, Swedish, Spanish. There are huge number of Megrelian and Laz words and morphemes in the English language. You, guys, used to be Georgians.

    I'm from Minnesota and my family use "ish" to describe something that is gross, icky or a strong dislike of something (mostly weather related). "We are getting more snow this weekend". "Again? Ish" or "the weather looks ishy out there". I've never heard the phrase "ish" alone to mean anything else but ick or gross.

    • @amyw6808
      @amyw6808 Год назад

      That’s not a context we use in British English. I’m wondering if it’s more a local way of saying “ick”!
