今週の文法ワード【hassle】

Today, I’d like to write about the noun “hassle”. The word hassle is used to talk about an activity which is not convenient for us and which will take a lot of time. For example:
I had to go to eight different places to find this product. It was such a hassle!
I have to get a visa to visit Vietnam. I hope it won’t be too much of a hassle.
I know it’s a hassle, but can you help me move this weekend?

We can also use this word as a verb, and it is used when we want to talk about a person pressuring someone else to do something as soon as possible. For example:
My boss is hassling me to get this project done as soon as possible.
I wish my wife wouldn’t hassle me about fixing the kitchen sink. I’m so busy right now.
This a very common word in English, but it always has a negative meaning. If we want to use a verb which is more positive, we can say “remind”.
