How To Describe Someone Who Is Bad At Something In English

Welcome to this second English lesson in a series where I'll talk about how to describe people in different ways. In this English class I'll help you learn how to describe someone who is bad at something.
There were 8 phrases that I could think of as I was creating this lesson. All of these are used to describe someone who is bad at something, and all of them are very common in everyday English.
In this English lesson you'll learn phrases like: to be bad at, to be no good at (and variations of it), to be terrible, to be horrible, to be useless when it comes to, and more!
I hope you enjoy this English lesson about how to describe people who are bat at things! Have a great day!
⌛ Remember: Always watch the video three times. Twice today with English subtitles on, and once tomorrow with the English subtitles off. This will reinforce the English you have learned!

1:02 « Tu es un bon à rien !!! » 😕🇫🇷
And if someone tells you that, you can reply : « Je ne suis pas bon à rien, je suis mauvais en tout !!! » 😂👍 (Marcel Pagnol / Le Schpountz- 1938)

[@Franciscoluche]

2:30 « Je suis un piètre conducteur !!! » 😅🇫🇷
“Piètre” is not very used (people often use “mauvais” instead, but it’s spoken in formal conversations. 😊👍)

Bob, you said "I am useless when it comes to fixing things" it's very difficult to understand a part Of "when it comes to" what is exactly the meaning of that part. I often meet chunks of words like these.

Hey hi Bob, Thanks for this useful lesson!
Have you noticed that the golfer hasn't even put his ball on the ground, already there he is very bad on golf.
How could we expect him not to be horrible at the swing?😄
This guy is useless as soon as he takes a golf club in his hands, he is largely incompetent for this "sport"😉.
Even Tiger Woods can't do anything for him! It's hopeless!
By the way, I shouldn't criticize that golfer because I don't know how to practice golf either. 😃
Have you ever played golf, Bob?
I wish you a great week.
