hello everybody welcome back to daily
easy English expression the video yeah
uh we got a great word today and I'm
gonna give it to you as a phrase the
word is riff-raff RI f FR a FF sometimes
people spell it as two words sometimes
with the - but you can spell it as one
word - and riff-raff is a noun it means
undesirable people people we don't like
peasants dumb people dirty people people
we don't like okay now this is not a
very nice word and people who use the
word riffraff tend to be very arrogant
people understand like royalty
so we can imagine the Queen of England
and Prince Charles and all the other
princes and princesses and they're
having dinner do you think I could have
dinner with them at the same table
probably not they would probably want me
at a different table in a different room
in a different building they don't want
me at their table they want to keep the
riffraff out me Who am I I'm nothing I'm
nobody I'm a peasant I'm Way down here
I'm not dirty but I'm still nothing like
them they are way up here I am way down
here I am the riff raff
imagine a sports game soccer okay and in
soccer we have the hooligans right
almost
every country has some crazy fans who
like to fight sometimes right the
hooligans you might consider the
hooligans as riffraff so if you have a
bar and you're going to show the soccer
game in the bar do you want the
hooligans in your bar
probably not you want to keep the
riffraff out and that's today's
expression keep the riffraff out check
out the dialogue you want to go out on
Friday night and I'm going to Chad's
party oh I wasn't invited he wants to
keep the riffraff out
Wow you hear those two guys do you hear
their voices just by listening to their
voices do you think they would be good
friends no it doesn't seem like it the
first guy he seems like a really nice
guy but maybe not super smart and the
second guy he seems a little bit
arrogant right yeah anyway the second
guy was invited to Chad's party and the
other guy wasn't and Chad doesn't want
the riffraff at his party
that's not nice they're calling the
first guy a peasant and undesirable a
deplorable person I think Hillary
Clinton called the Donald Trump
supporters deplorable and another word
for deplorable z' could be the riff raff
such a terrible word yeah that's today's
expression don't use the word riffraff
