關於Medal的意思和用法的提問

A: He's not being literal, he's making fun of him for refusing to look. You get medals to celebrate winning or performing better than other people, so "your medal's in the mail" means that someone has posted him a medal and he'll receive it soon. I think the point is that he's implying that the one refusing to look thinks he's better than the speaker for not looking, but the speaker is trying to tell him that it doesn't actually matter.

I haven't watched the show and I don't know what he's "looking" (or not looking) at, so I'm basing this explanation on the clip alone.

A: you would be bothered or made uncomfortable by this

A: got it. You're such an awesome expert at explaining!

A: Medals are mostly personal ornaments, charms, and religious. Medallions are bigger and are used for more decorative purposes

A: They're both basically the same, but the second one is choppier.

A: "Of having" sounds more formal.

A: you can pronounce it as (meh-dle)

A: Yes medal! I typed the wrong letter, so sorry

A: The second option sounds best, but instead:

She always gets really close to winning the medal, but ends up missing it in the end.

A: She's always very close to (WINNING / GETTING) the medal, but end(S) up missing it in the end.

A: a more natural way to say this would be "Getting medals is not a big deal. The important thing is the attitude of approaching the goal without giving up"

another way to say this would be "Getting medals is not a big deal. The attitude of reaching one's goal without giving up is more important."

hope this helps!
