Hey everyone, today I will be talking about the verb to hog. Now the noun hog means pig or in casual English it can mean motorcycle(usually like a Harley Davidson).
The verb to hog means that you are NOT sharing, you are being selfish and keeping something for yourself. It is often used among family members, young people and close friends.
It's early in the morning and your house has only one bathroom, your sister has been inside for 30 minutes so you bang on the door and say:
"Stop hogging the bathroom~! I gotta get ready for work!"
You are watching TV and your brother has had the remote (in Japanese, rimocon) for over one hour so you yell:
Philip: Mom, Marc's hogging the remote!
Mom: Give your brother the remote Marc, you have to share.
Marc: Oh OK, here you go...
Well I hope you enjoyed this mini-lesson, have a nice week,
Phil
