If you're doing online dating in the English-speaking world, you might see people talking about their "icks."

This is a slang word — icks are things that give you "a sudden feeling that you dislike someone" or are no longer attracted to them, according to the Cambridge Dictionary.

Icks are not always really big things. Being rude to an employee at a store, for example, might be an ick for someone, or eating with your mouth open.

People will often say they "got the ick" when they noticed something about a person that made them feel they were no longer attracted to them.

If they get to that point, it may be hard for them to feel attracted again!

If you're looking through dating profiles on an app, the most common ick is people who are negative or bitter.

That's according to a survey for Forbes Health. One thousand Americans who had used a dating app in the last year were asked about their dating habits.

And about 70% said people who are negative or bitter in their bios, perhaps about a previous relationship, give them the ick.

Other common icks include people with edited photos, people who are too interested in their possessions, and people with bad spelling or grammar.

And when using the apps, daters often make their decisions quite quickly.

According to the survey, the average person takes about two-and-a-half minutes to make a decision about whether they like a person or not.

So what makes daters attractive to others? Having a profile that shows a good sense of humor is a good thing, according to 80% of people.

The same number said they like people who have hobbies and interests, while many others like people who are interested in travel — or who show a pet in their photo!

Hello and welcome to another episode of Engine English. 

Today's episode is part one on 21 essential business English idioms. People still seem to have doubts about the differences there are between general and business English. 

Although there’s substantial overlapping, there are some clear differences. I will give you 10 useful idioms that you can use in the office with examples that will help you understand how you can use them. 

Engine English

21 Essential Business Idioms Part 1


En el último callejón de la calle más oscura del pueblo, se erguía una casa. No era una casa cualquiera, sino una mansión antigua, de esas que parecen absorber la luz y el sonido a su alrededor. Los lugareños la evitaban, susurrando leyendas sobre extraños sucesos y presencias malignas que habitaban en su interior.

Desde que la familia Blackwood se mudó, la casa se volvió aún más siniestra. Los Blackwood eran extraños, recluidos y rodeados de un aura de misterio. Los niños de la escuela contaban historias sobre luces parpadeantes en las ventanas a altas horas de la noche, sombras que se movían detrás de las cortinas y risas espeluznantes que resonaban en la noche.

Un día, un grupo de jóvenes, desafiando las advertencias de los mayores, decidió explorar la casa. Armados con linternas y una dosis de valentía, se adentraron en la mansión. Las habitaciones estaban llenas de polvo y telarañas, y un frío intenso les helaba los huesos. Los cuadros colgados en las paredes parecían observarlos con ojos vacíos.

Al llegar al sótano, la atmósfera se volvió aún más opresiva. Las paredes estaban cubiertas de extraños símbolos y el suelo crujía bajo sus pies. De repente, una puerta se abrió de golpe y un viento helado los envolvió. Los jóvenes se congelaron del miedo, pero no pudieron moverse.

Una voz gutural y profunda resonó en la oscuridad: "Se han adentrado en lo prohibido". Las luces parpadearon y se apagaron, sumiendo el sótano en una oscuridad total. Los jóvenes trataron de escapar, pero una fuerza invisible los mantenía inmovilizados.

Al día siguiente, los jóvenes fueron encontrados desmayados en el callejón, sin recordar nada de lo ocurrido. Los habitantes del pueblo susurraron que habían sido marcados por la maldición de la casa Blackwood.

Desde entonces, la casa del final del camino se convirtió en una leyenda aún más aterradora. Se decía que aquellos que se atrevían a entrar en ella, nunca volvían a ser los mismos.
