Excuse me, I heard someone said"what are you fucking doing?" In this sentence, is fucking an adjective? Is it really rude? Or it just enhances the emotions and tones?
Hello! Interesting question. In that sentence, "fucking" functions as an intensifier or expletive, adding emphasis or emotion to the sentence. People often use it to convey strong feelings, frustration, or to intensify the meaning of a word.
In this context, "fucking" is not functioning as an adjective. It's typically considered a vulgar intensifier or adverbial modifier, adding emphasis to the sentence.
Are these expressions are common in USA or academic ones
Hello! Those expressions are common in American English. However, they are expressions and idioms so they probably should not be used in academic situations. Just use the basic form when you want to be more formal. "Sorry, I made a mistake. "
One, "put a foot in one's mouth".
Example, "you know, I see he's dating you!"
"hahaha, you put a foot in your mouth; he's my unckle!"
Two, "caught with one's pans down".
Example, "When her mother came into her room, she got caught with her pans down; because she was cuddling her boyfriend."
Three, "jump the gun".
Example, "The people jumped the gun, because they were not asked yet!"
Four, "let the cat out the bag".
Example, "You'll go with us to California, won't you?"
"Oh no, I let the cat outta the bag!"
Five, "spill the beans".
Example, "You'll go with us to California, won't you?"
"Oh no, I spilled the beans!"
Six, "bite off more than someone can chew".
Example, "You're biting off more than you can chew!"
Seven , "let something slip through one's fingers".
Example, "his father suggested that he register for Harvard. However, he let the opportunity through his fingers; because now his father does not have any money to help him out."
Eight, "miss the bote".
Example, "his fater suggested that he register for Harvard. However, he missed the bote; because now his father does not have any money to help him out."
Nine, "shot oneself in the foot".
Example, "The killer beat a policeoficer, shoting himself in a foot."
Ten, "mess up".

Hello! I'm from Canada... US accent.
Jajaja How funny words ….😂😂😂
Yes, those expressions are very interesting I hope you can remember and use a few. Thanks for watching! 🤩
In the review section, it should be "let it slip through my fingers."
Wow! Very well spotted! You're the 1st one to mention it!
Both "let it slip through my fingers" and "let it slip between my fingers" are commonly used phrases to express the idea of losing something or letting an opportunity go. They are interchangeable and convey the same meaning, so you can use either depending on your preference.
@@englishspeaking360 Thanks for the explanation. I really enjoy watching your videos.
Glad to hear that!
Oh, it is so difficult for me😭
Hello! Yes, idioms are challenging, but remember that you don't have to use them. It's totally fine to say, "I made a mistake."
However, learning a few of these expressions with make you sound more natural and will definitely help you understand more when people talk.
Don't give up!
@@englishspeaking360 Thank you so much, I'll never give up!🥰
