I'm Fei Fei.
And I'm Neil.
And today we're teaching a British slang expression, or maybe just half an expression.
The phrase is not half two simple words, but you need to know what they mean when used together.
Let's try it out first and see if you can work out what it means.
For example, Neil, you really enjoyed that pizza, didn't you?
Not half.
I love pizza.
And Fei Fei, you love playing darts, don't you?
Darts?
Not half.
I play every night.
So what does not half mean?
It means very much in these answers.
When I replied not half, I meant yes, very much.
I really like darts.
And do you?
