0395 Daily Easy English Expression PODCAST—down in the dumps

Today’s expression and dialog: down in the dumps
 
Shane’s really down in the dumps.
 
Why?
 
He got yelled at by his mom.
 
What for?
He forgot to help her clean on Saturday.
 
Happy JUNE and happy Monday, everyone!! Actually, Monday is kind of a "day off" for me, so I like it! But June...oh...it will soon be summer. And summer is NOT my favorite month~~ I love WINTER!!! But, I will survive. Okay, let's get to today's podcast...
 
Can you think of a TERRIBLE place to be? What about...in the dump? Remember, yesterday we studied what "the dump" was. Going to the dump for a few minutes is okay, but can you imagine STAYING there? And in some countries, people live there or right next to the dump. Oh, it's SO sad, isn't it? It's very depressing. We are SO lucky that we are not "in the dump". 
Well, emotionally, we can still be "in the dump". But we say it like this, "I feel down in the dumps". Yes, with an S on dump. But it refers to "the dump" and it means "super sad" or "super depressed". 
 
I hope YOU have a very HAPPY week, but if you are down in the dumps, I'll be waiting for you when you come out^^
