0:00Hi everyone, I hope you are well and having a nice day.
0:04Welcome to this video where we will see a French expression in a few minutes.
0:11Today, we're going to look at the expression "se prendre un râteau".
0:17Literally, to take a rake, it means that
0:20you take a rake, you know, it's a tool that we use in the garden, often, to
0:27collect the leaves, we take it in the head. And this expression comes from this image.
0:34You may have seen it in cartoons, it's a bit of a recurring gag.
0:41Someone who is walking and will step on a part of the rake that is on the ground,
0:46and the rake rises and it hits the person's head.
0:51Of course, this colloquial expression is mostly used figuratively.
0:58Getting a rake means that we tried to seduce someone, but we didn't get our way.
1:05The person didn't let us seduce them, they put a stop to us. They are not interested in us.
1:14You get a rake. It's kind of the same pain.
1:17Except that it's not a physical pain, but it's a pain in the heart. It hurts to get a rake.
1:25I'll give you two contextualizations so you understand. For example, if I'm walking down the
1:33street and a guy comes up to me and asks for my phone number and I say no thanks,
1:40I'm not interested, I'm already in a relationship.
1:44He'll say he got a rake and I'll say I got a rake. Here's another story I read on the Internet.
1:52It's about a boy who went to his
1:54hairdresser to get his hair cut and they were having a good laugh together.
1:58So as he was leaving, he asked her to go for a drink.
2:02He invited her for a drink and she told him that she was coming out of a very long
2:09relationship, that she didn't want to start seeing other guys.
2:14So he writes on the Internet, that he took a rake from his hairdresser.
2:19Often, when you get a rake, it's because
2:21the other person doesn't really like you, so they'll kind of say excuses, like, I'd
2:25rather we stay friends, I don't want to ruin our friendship. If it's someone you know.
2:30Or, like I said, I'm just out of a relationship or I'm in a relationship.
2:34Even though sometimes that's not true.
2:37That's it for that little colloquial expression "taking a rake".
2:42I hope you enjoyed this video and most
2:45importantly, that you won't get a rake from the person you like.
2:49I wish you a very, very nice day and above all, don't forget if you liked the video,
2:55put a like and above all if you are not yet a subscriber, subscribe and activate
3:00the bell so you don't miss any of my videos. I'll see you very, very soon.
