Tutor Nick P Proverbs - 33 - What you don't know can't hurt you

Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Proverbs number 33. The proverb today is ' What you don't know can't hurt you. " You might even hear this as what you don't know won't hurt you. So it could be said either way. Let's take a look at the note here. This proverb means if you are unaware of a problem or something bad that someone did, it won't be able to make you unhappy. or worry about it. So if you don't know it won't hurt you. All right. Let's take a look at the first example here. I saw my best friend's husband in a restaurant smooching with another woman. You know, smooching like kissing. I don't know if I should tell her. It will break her heart. Okay. So remember this is an a/b part . That was A and B is saying, maybe you shouldn't tell her. Remember what you don't know can't hurt you. All right that's just the way we would use it. Okay good. Let's take a look at the second one. It also is an a/b part. So A says Jasmine asked me to have my husband reset the diamond in her wedding ring after it fell out. Oh yeah. Maybe you know she was friend and her husband was a jeweler, and asked oh could you do this for me ? My husband told me that the diamond wasn't real. It was only a cubic zirconia. I'm not sure if I should tell Jasmine or not. So she knows that my friend's ring , she thought it was a real diamond but finds that it's not a real diamond. She doesn't know if she should tell her friend or not. And B says it is probably better not to. Remember what she doesn't know won't hurt her. All right. So these are perfect examples of how we might use this phrase. You know we might use it in the general sense, like what you don't know can't hurt you. Or it won't hurt you or sometimes we will actually change the person. What she doesn't know won't hurt her or what he doesn't know won't hurt him. You could change the subject too in this phrase as well. Okay, anyway, I hope it's clear. I hope you got it. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
