Hello. My name is Emma and in todays lesson I am going to teach you a bunch of new vocabulary expressions. These expressions are all very common and very useful. So, the expressions were going to learn today all have the word "mind" in them. Okay? And there are a lot. Im not even covering all of them because there are so many expressions in English with the word "mind", so were only going to cover some of them, but were going to cover the main ones.
Okay, so, when we talk about "mind", there are different ways were talking about mind. "Mind" can have to do with the brain and with thinking or thoughts. Okay? So, sometimes when were talking about mind were talking about our brain or were talking about our thoughts. Sometimes were talking about something totally different with mind. Sometimes when were talking about mind were actually talking about being polite. For example: "Do you mind?" this is something where youre being polite. And then we also use "mind" when were telling somebody to pay attention to something. For example: "Mind the gap" or "Mind the hole". So we have these three times where were using "mind" and we have a lot of different expressions for each of these different categories. So were going to go over each of these. Im going to teach you a bunch of expressions where "mind" has to do with thought or brain, Ill teach you a lot of expressions where it has to do with politeness, and then Im going to teach you a lot of "mind" expressions that have to do with paying attention. But this is pretty much one way you can look at these expressions.
So lets get started by talking about... When were talking about mind, and thoughts, and the brain. So, first, when we talk about "mind" one meaning of "mind" can have to do with pretty much the brain, but its not exactly the brain. Okay? So your brain is in your head and its a physical thing. You can touch the brain, you can feel the brain, you can see the brain, smell the brain, so its physical. Mind is not physical. You cant see the mind because the mind is where your thoughts are, where your memories are, and these are things you cant really see or feel, but theyre somewhere in here; we just cant see them because theyre not physical. So, for example: Einstein, very famous scientist: "Einstein had a brilliant mind." Okay? So this means Einstein had brilliant thoughts, he was very smart. He had, you know, brilliant ideas. These things are all in his mind. So its similar to brain, although not exactly the same thing, its very similar to brain.
We can also say: "psychologist". A psychologist is a job and people who are psychologists, they study the human mind, meaning they look at the brain and they look at peoples memories, they look at the way people have ideas, and they think about: "Where do these things come from?" Okay? So they study the human mind. So, a lot of the times when we use the word "mind", were talking about kind of your brain and your thoughts. You know, we might say: "Oh, Beethoven had an incredible mind", or you know: "In your opinion, which minds were the greatest of the 20th century? Who had the greatest mind?" Meaning: Who had the greatest ideas, and thoughts, and pretty much brain? Okay, so thats "mind".
Now, lets look at another way we use "mind" and thats in the expression: "on someones mind". So this is a very common expression. In English we often ask: "Whats on your mind?" Or we also say: "I have a lot on my mind." So, what does: "on my mind" mean? And make sure you have "on someones mind", so it can be: "on my mind", "on your mind", "on her mind", "on Johns mind", you can pretty much put any person here. What does it mean? Well, when we talk about "on our mind" were usually talking about problems, so were usually talking about problems that we are thinking about. These are thoughts, were thinking about something so its on our mind.
