  12. But they only hire Harvard graduates.1:25
  13. So let's see what happens with Rachel's application.1:27
  14. I don't know how it felt from someone who got in because I'll never hear that from myself.1:57
  15. Oh no, poor Rachel.2:07
  16. So before we learn all of those advanced expressions that you saw highlighted in blue, let me give you a pro tip.2:09

  29. Alright, first up, let's look at Get In.3:16
  30. Harvard application.3:19
  31. Rachel, that's great.3:22
  32. It's great if I get in and I'm not going to get in if I don't get this done in a moment.3:23
  33. Okay, so this is going well then.3:26
  34. Alright, so this means to be accepted or admitted to a school, university or program.3:28
  35. When Rachel says, it's great if I get in, she's talking about being accepted to Harvard.3:33
  36. It's super common to use this with schools.3:38
  37. Later, Rachel says, get into instead of just get in.3:40
  38. I didn't get into Harvard.3:44
  39. If you have an object you should use into, otherwise just use in.3:45
  40. For example, you might say, I really hope I get in to stand for this year.3:49
  41. I've been dreaming about getting in since high school.3:53
  42. And I might suggest Rachel might get in somewhere else if Harvard doesn't work out.3:55
  43. This brings us to our next expression.3:59
  44. I don't want to have a fallback.4:01
  45. You mean a backup?4:03
  46. A logical plan B?4:04
  47. These words mean the same thing.4:06
  48. It's your second choice or alternative plan when your first choice doesn't work out.4:09
  49. We also heard him call this a plan B.4:13
  50. In the USA, most people will have a top choice when applying to universities.4:16
  51. But they probably will also apply to a couple backup schools just in case.4:20
  52. Check out these examples.4:24
  53. And hey, I'm guessing that you would like to be able to speak English more naturally and fluently, right?4:38
  54. Right.4:44
  55. Well, a key to this is connected speech.4:45
  56. That's how we natives cut, reduce, and connect our words together in fluent speech.4:48
  57. Now let's practice it together so that you can understand and speak more confidently.4:53
  58. Harvard application.4:57
  59. Rachel, that's great.5:00
  60. It's great if I get in.5:02
  61. Do you notice how Rachel said this almost as if it were a single word?5:03
  62. We have a couple instances of the American T here.5:07
  63. When a T is between two vowel sounds, it usually morphs into a D sound.5:09
  64. For example, butter instead of butter, or cat and dog instead of cat and dog.5:15
  65. The T from great and get are both surrounded by vowels, so they morph and all these words link together.5:21
  66. Rachel didn't say, it's great if I get in.5:27
  67. She said, it's great if I get in.5:31
  68. It's great if I get in.5:34
  69. The same thing happened later when she said, what if I'm not one of those people?5:36
  70. What if I'm not one of those people?5:41
  71. She doesn't say, what if I'm, she said, what if I'm.5:42
  72. And you're speaking will only get better through a lot of practice.5:46
  73. So now you try.5:50
  74. Rachel, that's great.5:52
  75. It's great if I get in.5:53
  76. It's great if I get in.5:54
  77. What if I'm not one of those people?6:00
  78. What if I'm not one of those people?6:02
  79. Moving on, a few episodes later we get some bad news.6:09
  80. Rachel didn't get accepted and she's trying to understand why.6:12
  81. So let's take a look at the advanced expressions we saw in that clip.6:15
  82. I didn't get into Harvard.6:19
  83. Listen to me, there are other schools.6:21
  84. Don't.6:23
  85. Yeah, I won't.6:25
  86. It wasn't that I wasn't good enough.6:27
  87. So Rachel's expressing the problem was not that she didn't meet the high standards or requirements of Harvard Law School.6:29
  88. The phrase, to not be good enough, is commonly used when someone feels they don't qualify for something they wanted.6:35
  89. For example, you might feel like your English isn't good enough, but maybe that's just because you haven't found a method that works effectively for you yet.6:41
  90. Well here at Real Life English, we try to provide that method for you.6:49
  91. Like with our vocabulary flashcards on an app that I mentioned earlier.6:52
  92. These help you to remember new expressions forever, so that you never feel again like your English isn't good enough.6:55
  93. Let me show you how those work.7:01
  94. I'm going to pop open our lesson with Legally Blonde.7:02
  95. Check out how amazing these are for adding new expressions to your long -term memory.7:06
  96. So I found the lesson for Legally Blonde.7:10
  97. Let's open that.7:12
  98. And normally you would watch the lesson here on the app and you have the interactive transcript and everything, but for now we're going to skip that.7:13
  99. I'm just going to load the vocabulary flashcards anyway.7:20
  100. So I'm clicking practice.7:23
  101. And you can choose how many words you want to learn depending on how much time you have.7:25
  102. And you have both the flashcards and the writing exercises.7:28
  103. You can do both or focus on just one or the other.7:32
  104. Just for demonstration, let's just look at the flashcards for now.7:34
  105. So right away here we have a definition.7:39
  106. Communication between two or more people.7:42
  107. Hmm, which expression was used there that matches this definition?7:44
  108. You could show examples.7:50
  109. That might be helpful.7:51
  110. So their first was awkward, but they quickly became friends.7:52
  111. Her friendly with customers made her a favorite at the store.7:55
  112. Hmm, thinking about that one, I believe it's interaction.8:01
  113. Let's see if that's right.8:04
  114. Show answer.8:05
  115. Interaction.8:07
  116. So we even have the pronunciation there to help us and we can now see both these examples filled out.8:08
  117. So I remembered it.8:14
  118. So it says here at the bottom, did you remember it?8:15
  119. So you have yes.8:18
  120. I remembered that right away.8:19
  121. So I stuck yes.8:21
  122. That means that now it's probably not going to be shown to me again for a long time because it's already pretty fresh in my memory.8:22
  123. All right.8:30
  124. So the next one is a casual way to say goodbye, wishing the other person to relax and not stress.8:31
  125. Let's look at the example again.8:36
  126. Hmm, let's see.8:38
  127. Maybe I sort of remember that, but I'm not quite sure what it is.8:41
  128. So I'm going to say show answer.8:44
  129. Take it easy.8:45
  130. Oh, that's right.8:46
  131. It was take it easy.8:47
  132. So maybe I sort of remembered that, but you know, I didn't fully remember every word.8:48
  133. Maybe I just remembered it was something with easy.8:53
  134. So I'll do sort of, which means that it will be shown to me again more or less soon, but it will wait a bit longer.8:55
  135. All right.9:04
  136. And then let's look at one more used to tell someone to hurry, encourage them or express disbelief.9:04
  137. I know you're tired, but we're so close to the top of the trail.9:11
  138. Hmm.9:16
  139. I have no idea what that is.9:17
  140. So I'm going to click show answer.9:19
  141. Come on.9:20
  142. Come on.9:21
  143. Okay.9:22
  144. Come on.9:22
  145. I do know that one, but let's pretend that I didn't remember it at all.9:23
  146. So I'm going to press no here.9:26
  147. I didn't remember it.9:28
  148. And that means it's going to be shown again really soon so that I can continue adding hooks to this and add it to my long term memory.9:28
  149. All right.9:35
  150. And we're repeating this expression again and casual way to say goodbye, wishing the person to relax and not stress.9:35
  151. Do you remember what it was?9:40
  152. I remember it was take it easy.9:42
  153. Take it easy.9:44
  154. Take it easy.9:44
  155. Okay.9:45
  156. So now seeing it again, I remembered it.9:46
  157. So we'll wait a bit longer to study that one again.9:48
  158. And then this one that we didn't remember it all before, but let's say that now I think really hard about it.9:52
  159. I remember it was something that ended with on.9:57
  160. Come on.10:00
  161. Oh, that's right.10:00
  162. Come on.10:01
  163. So let's say like it's sort of now.10:02
  164. So it's going to wait a bit longer.10:04
  165. So you can really see how this can be really effective over time.10:05
  166. And we just spent just a couple of minutes there to add new vocabulary, new expressions to your long term memory.10:08
  167. So get access to the premium version of the suits lesson for free right now and never forget all the new expressions you're working hard to learn today by tapping10:15
  168. the link in the description below on your phone.10:23
  169. Moving on, Rachel mentions that the interviewer and Lewis had a history.10:26
  170. It was Lewis.10:30
  171. What?10:32
  172. The interviewer.10:32
  173. Apparently she and Lewis had a history and which she didn't let you in because of him.10:34
  174. This is a polite way to say to people had a romantic relationship or some kind of personal connection in the past.10:39
  175. It's often used when you don't want to give all the details about what exactly happened between two people.10:45
  176. For example, if two of your friends have a history, you might not feel comfortable hanging out with them at the same time.10:50
  177. Right.10:56
  178. But she didn't let you in because of him.10:56
  179. To be let in means to be allowed to enter or join something.10:58
  180. For example, you might not be led into a place you work by the security guard if you forgot your idea at home.11:02
  181. In this context, it means the admissions interviewer didn't allow Rachel to be admitted to Harvard.11:07
  182. Finally, Rachel asked Mike to tell her about when he found out he got into Harvard.11:16
  183. In other words, she wants to hear the story of the day Mike received his acceptance letter.11:21
  184. What did it feel like?11:26
  185. Of course, if you're a fan of the show, you know this never happened because Mike lied about attending Harvard.11:27
  186. Find out is a phrase of her meaning to discover or learn information.11:33
  187. Often something you didn't know before.11:36
  188. So you might also find out that you have a medical condition that needs to be treated.11:38
  189. Or you might find out that there's a new restaurant in your neighborhood that has great reviews.11:42
  190. Rachel, come on.11:46
  191. This is a super common expression we use to offer encouragement or show frustration.11:48
  192. Like if a friend of yours is too scared to try ordering their meal at a restaurant in English while you're traveling, you might encourage them by saying, come on,11:52
  193. you can do it.11:58
  194. Check out this other example.11:59
  195. She taught me how to climb.12:03
  196. Come on, Boris, you can do it.12:04
  197. Excuse me, ma 'am, I think your things are in my seat.12:08
  198. Oh, sorry.12:10
  199. Oh, come on.12:13
  200. You've got to be kidding me.12:14
  201. However, Mike is using it here because he doesn't believe it will be helpful for her to compare herself to him.12:16
  202. Alright, that was tense.12:24
  203. But Rachel's not giving up.12:26
  204. So in the next scene we will watch, she drafted a letter to try to get Harvard to change their mind, and she wants Mike to send it as an12:27
  205. alumnus.12:34
  206. That is, someone who graduated from there.12:35
  207. Or, so she believes.12:37
  208. This is to Harvard.12:39
  209. I'm going over Sheila's asses head and telling them everything that happened.12:40
  210. Well, you are.12:43
  211. Rachel, you can't.12:45
  212. Yeah, come on, you said it yourself.12:45
  213. It is not right that I'm being denied admission because someone's punishing Louis.12:47
  214. It's not, but I can't sign this.12:51
  215. Why not?12:52
  216. It's hearsay.12:53
  217. Are you going to help me or not?12:54
  218. I'll help you.12:56
  219. I'm going over Sheila's asses head and telling them everything that happened.13:01
  220. Amazing expression here.13:05
  221. To go over someone's head means to not accept an answer from someone, and contact their boss or another person with more authority.13:07
  222. It's like jumping over them in the chain of command.13:14
  223. For example, imagine that your manager won't accept your vacation request.13:16
  224. You could go over her head by talking to her boss.13:20
  225. Rachel, you can't.13:23
  226. Yeah, come on, you said it yourself.13:24
  227. It is not right that I'm being denied admission because I'm being denied admission because I'm being denied admission.13:25
  228. What do you think she means when she says she's being denied admission to Harvard?13:28
  229. She's being refused acceptance by the admissions officer?13:33
  230. She's being threatened by the admissions officer.13:36
  231. She's angry at Louis.13:38
  232. Right, it's the same as the expression we saw earlier.13:47
  233. To be let in.13:50
  234. But more formal.13:51
  235. You refuse entry or acceptance to a school, program or place.13:52
  236. It's not, but I can't sign this.13:56
  237. Why not?13:58
  238. Finally, Mike mentions that sending this letter would be hearsay, a legal term we can hear often in suits.13:59
  239. Hearsay is information you heard from someone else, not something you witnessed yourself.14:05
  240. It's often not considered reliable evidence because it's secondhand information.14:10
  241. Of course, we know that Mike is just making excuses because if you were to write Harvard, his secret would be discovered.14:14
  242. Check out this other example.14:19
  243. So you better have a good reason why you're in here asking me to reopen this case.14:21
  244. We do, Your Honor.14:24
  245. We found under Bailey's alibi.14:25
  246. What they found is nothing but hearsay.14:27
  247. So Rachel thinks that she didn't get in because of Louis' affair with the Harvard admissions officer, Sheila.14:32
  248. However, she wasn't accepted simply because she didn't meet Harvard's strict criteria.14:38
  249. She didn't get in because they didn't think she was good enough.14:43
  250. You have to tell her the real truth.14:45
  251. Louis was too afraid of hurting Rachel's feelings to tell her the truth.14:47
  252. And obviously, Mike can't send the letter because he'd be found out.14:51
  253. In the final clip from today, we'll see what happens when Rachel finds out that Mike didn't send the letter and confronts him.14:54
  254. You've been cagey with me since the second I came to you about the letter and you're being cagey with me right now.15:00
  255. You are, you're lying to me.15:04
  256. It's always something.15:05
  257. It is always some secret or some story or some lie.15:06
  258. I don't understand why.15:10
  259. You don't understand what I have been through.15:11
  260. I am not ready to lose you.15:13
  261. Then tell me.15:16
  262. I never went to Harvard.15:18
  263. I'm a fraud.15:22
  264. Alright, so it seems like everything has come together.15:29
  265. Stick around until the test of the end to see what happens next.15:32
  266. For now, let's break down the powerful expressions that we heard there.15:35
  267. You've been cagey with me since the second I came to you about the letter and you're being cagey with me right now.15:38
  268. Wow, what a great advanced word here.15:42
  269. When someone's cagey, they're being secretive, evasive, or unwilling to give direct answers.15:44
  270. They're hiding something or being mysteriously unclear about their responses.15:49
  271. Why are you hiding this?15:53
  272. I don't want to talk about it.15:55
  273. Oh, cute.15:57
  274. Where'd that come from?15:59
  275. It's my mom's.16:00
  276. She's being very cagey.16:01
  277. We think something's stashed in the head.16:02
  278. Let's get some more speaking practice in.16:04
  279. We saw a really nice example here of connected speech.16:06
  280. You've been cagey with me since the second I came to you about the letter.16:08
  281. So it just feels like this phrase got smashed together, doesn't it?16:11
  282. First, the most common sound in English is the schwa, uh, sound.16:14
  283. If this doesn't exist in your native language, then it's essential you master it.16:18
  284. As usually happens, the article D here had its vowel reduced to a schwa.16:23
  285. So the, not the.16:27
  286. The D from second links to the pronoun I.16:29
  287. Second I.16:32
  288. Second I.16:33
  289. We have both a reduction to a schwa and the American T we saw earlier with two.16:34
  290. So instead of came to, she says came done.16:39
  291. Let's put it all together.16:43
  292. She didn't say the second I came to you.16:44
  293. She said the second that came to you.16:47
  294. The second I came to you.16:50
  295. Again, if you want to become a natural English speaker, you need lots of practice.16:52
  296. So listen to Rachel again and try to say it just like she did.16:56
  297. You've been cagey with me since the second I came to you about the letter.16:59
  298. Since the second I came to you about the letter.17:02
  299. Next, we heard Mike say that he's been through and lost a lot.17:09
  300. I don't understand what I have been through.17:13
  301. I am not ready to lose you.17:16
  302. The expression to go through something or to be through something means to experience something difficult, challenging or painful.17:19
  303. It often refers to tough times or hardships.17:26
  304. Check out these examples.17:28
  305. I know you're upset and frustrated that your friend is going through something and he ran off instead of turning to you for help.17:30
  306. They just all act so immature.17:38
  307. Well, they are immature.17:40
  308. They're teenagers.17:41
  309. They haven't been through what you've been through.17:43
  310. Then tell me.17:44
  311. I never went to Harvard.17:46
  312. This is a hugely iconic moment in the series.17:49
  313. The instant where Mike decides to stop lying to Rachel and he used an advanced definition of go.17:51
  314. Go to a school means to attend or study at that institution.17:57
