English in a Minute: Shiner

Welcome to English in a Minute!  
To shine means to be very bright. But what happens if you get a “shiner”?  
A: Whoa, Dan! What happened to your face?  
D: I got hit with the ball during last night’s softball game. Turns out the balls are not all that soft.  
A: Well, that’s quite a shiner. Hey, maybe next time catch the ball with your glove and not your face. 
D: Thanks, Anna. Thanks a lot.  
A “shiner” is another word for a black eye. That is the dark area of skin around your eye you get when something – or someone – hits you with enough force. Thankfully, shiners do go away in time.  
And that’s English in a Minute!

This reminds us of domestic violence. An abusive partner sometimes gives the victim a shiner.
