Sobre este título
Today, let’s look at a really casual, really conversational pattern you’ll hear in everyday American English - all + adjective. We use all before an adjective to mean very or totally, and it adds emotion to what we’re saying. You’ll hear this especially when people are talking about feelings, reactions, or moods
- Like, Maybe last night, you came home after a long day. You can say: “I was all hungry and tired when I got home last night.” all hungry and tired means very hungry, and very tired.
- Or maybe your boss saw last month’s sales numbers and wasn’t happy. You could say: “The boss was all grumpy when he saw last month’s sales data.”
- Here's another example. “Jen was all excited about her vacation.”
It’s casual, it’s expressive, and it sounds very natural in everyday American English. Just remember - this is spoken English, not something you’d use in formal writing.
Try using this pattern the next time you want to describe a strong feeling - like “I was all surprised!” It really brings your English to life. Lemme know in the comments how it goes, and remember to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next Saturday’s English Tips in a Minute. Hey, thanks for listening - and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
