      'Gutted' is used to describe feelings rather than situations, but you could use the 'ing' form and say 'What a gutting day!'.

    Hi Emma!
    Thanks for the video and your comprehensive explanation.
    If I have understood correctly speakers of English use a question sentence to mean that the thing they have now is better than what it has replaced. For instance, an owner of an electric car will say " Who wants or needs petrol or oil,". He or she is not asking a question. What He or she means is "to hell with petrol and oil" 😅😅. As you can see this is not a real question. But sometimes it is a real question. Now my question is, how do you distinguish between the two concepts, contexts or situations?
    Thank you and have a nice time

      Hey Bubble, interesting question. Just curious... how does this relate to the video? I can't find a connection! 😂
      In any case, I'll add it to my list of videos to make. The key is in both the context and the intonation! 😊🌻

      I knew you would rebuke me 😢. But I did it anyway 😅.
      On a more serious note, sometimes it is very difficult to find a video which relates to the question you have. What is the best way to ask a question when this happens? I have loads of easy but essential questions.
      Thank you and have a nice time

    Thanks for the new vocabulary and pronunciation. 💞👍👌
    I think 'curtain,' buttons' and 'eaten' are pronounced the same way as gutted. Is that right?
    And I think people feel gutted in these cases below.
    1. Damn it! I lost again. How much money have I lost on the stock market in the past 3 years. I should’ve stoped making investments sooner. I'm really gutted with myself.
    2. How did you do this? You had cheated on me for 3 months. I'm really gutted with you for cheating me. (Is it OK to use 'about you' instead of 'with you'?

    • @EnglishWithEm
      @EnglishWithEm  Год назад +1

      You're welcome, and yes, all those words are often pronounced with glottalised Ts.
      Good examples! Some small adjustments.
      1) stopped (double 'p')
      2) You could say 'I'm gutted about you cheating on me', but not 'I'm gutted about you for cheating on me'. We don't often say 'gutted with somone for doing something'. It's more common to follow it with a that clause - I'm gutted that you cheated on me. 😊🌻

    Glottal stop (stop t/held t/unreleased t) is characteristic feature of the bri'ish. 😊 Because it sounds so unnatural for me, it is exceedingly difficult to prononce it with feeling embarrassed/awkward 😶😐😑

    • @EnglishWithEm
      @EnglishWithEm  Год назад +1

      It's not a problem if you don't pronounce T as a glottal stop. Depending on the region, there are many people who do pronounce the T. It's important from a listening comprehension perspective, so if you can recognise it when you hear it, that's what matters 😊🌻

      @EnglishWithEm  Год назад +2

      Nice example! We don't usually use 'get' with 'gutted'. I've never thought about it before, but now that I do, I think it's because 'gutted' is an ungradable adjective.
      For example, I would say:
      I got surprised. I got tired. I got disappointed.
      But not:
      I got amazed. I got exhausted. I got gutted.
      One of the nice things about doing these videos and reading people's comments is that they often make me consider aspects of the language that I hadn't thought about before 🙌🌻
