Vocabularies of SpongeBob SquarePants Movie

SCENE A
1. Giant
Something giant is extremely big. As this is a giant pencil, it allows them to draw them to
draw big pictures with it.
2. What are you doing?
This is the example of connected speech. Which is the way that natives cut and link their
words together.
3. Jellyfish
If you used to watch this show you probably know that SpongeBob loves hunting jellyfish
in his free time to get jelly out of them. In real life jelly comes from fruit and not from
jellyfish. The plural and singular of fish or jellyfish does not change in English.
4. Lacking basic construction
You’d use “lack” word to say that there’s not enough of certain thing.
5. Critic
A critic is a person who judges the work of artists, such as painters, chefs, or filmmakers.
In this situation SpongeBob is complaining about the fact that everyone feels entitled to
judge other people’s work.
6. That’s more like it
This phrase is used to show that you think that something or someone has improved.
7. Ain’t he a doll
Ain’t is consideres grammatically incorrect, but it is a part of informal native speech, and
you will hear it all the time. It can mean (am not, is not, are not, Have/has not).
 SCENE B
1. Sir
You probably know the word sir as it is a very common way to politely refer to someone.
2. Salesman
A salesman is a person who sells commercial products.
3. Self-respect
If you have self-respect, it means that you behave with honor and dignity. And you feel
pride and are confident with yourself or in what you do.
4. Caught dead
This phrase is used to say that one would never do something, usually because it is very
embarrassing.
5. Knucklehead
Knucklehead is a colloquial insulting word used to say that someone is unintelligent.

6. Them
Here we have another good example of connected speech. The pronoun them is a function
word. So, what happens here is that “them” reduces and look into the previous work,
need.
7. So long
So long is a very common phrase used to say goodbye.
8. Hunting
Hunting involves chasing and killing an animal. In this situation, he wishes them “happy
hunting” as a way of saying that he hopes that they sell many chocolates (they aren’t
literally hunting).
9. Suckers
This word is used to refer to a foolish person, that is, someone who is easy to trick or
deceive.
 SCENE C
1. Flapping ‘Flotsam
Although these are real words, SpongeBob invented this to mean something like “Oh my
gosh!” (Oh my God).
2. Mr. crabs
We can look at an interesting instance of pronunciation here. Normally, when we add the
possessive to someone’s name, it doesn’t add any extra syllables. However, if that name
ends is an S already, like Mr. Krabs, then we add an extra syllable.
3. Prized possession
if you have a prized possession, that thing is extremely important or valuable to you.
4. Paint on
In American English, when we have an N followed by a T, we often drop the T sound. He
doesn’t say PAINT ON, he says PAY NON.
5. Wipe it
To wipe something is to gently remove dirt or other matter by applying gentle pressure.
To wipe off means that you remove something with a wiping motion.
