[00:00:46]>> This is a great topic because phrasal verbs are everywhere. Native speakers use them all the time. You hear them in movies, podcasts, text messages, phone calls, and normal conversations.

[00:01:31]>> All right, let's get started.

[00:01:34]>> Hi, Tina. How are you today?

[00:01:36]>> I'm good, Leo. I'm a little busy, but I feel focused today. I woke up early, made tea, and planned my morning carefully. How are you?

[00:01:45]>> I'm pretty good. I'm a little sleepy because I stayed up too late last night.

[00:01:50]>> Oh, no. Why did you stay up late?

[00:01:52]>> I started watching one short video, then another one, then another one. Suddenly, it was past midnight and I was still sitting there like it was a good decision.

[00:02:03]>> That sounds very modern and very dangerous.

[00:02:07]>> Yes, my phone and I do not always have a healthy relationship.

[00:02:11]>> What did you do this weekend?

[00:02:13]>> On Saturday, I met a friend for coffee and we just sat and talked for almost 2 hours. We mostly caught up because we don't see each other often. Then on Sunday, I tried to clean my apartment, but I kept putting it off.

[00:02:27]>> Of course you do.

[00:02:29]>> I mean, I started cleaning, then I found an old notebook, then I read the notebook, then I stopped cleaning completely.

[00:02:37]>> That is not cleaning. That is a museum visit.

[00:02:41]>> Exactly. What about you?

[00:02:44]>> My weekend was calmer. On Saturday morning, I cleaned up my desk and set up my schedule for the week. Then I went out for a short walk. On Sunday, I read, answered messages, and called my sister.

[00:02:55]>> That sounds very organized.

[00:02:57]>> Thank you. I try to keep things simple.

[00:03:00]>> Well, speaking of weekends, daily habits, and the little expressions people use in real conversations, today we are talking about phrasal verbs.

[00:03:10]>> Yes. And we are going to use them in real daily situations. Perfect. Let's move to our main conversation.

[00:03:20]>> Leo, let's start with the big question.

[00:03:22]What is a phrasal verb?

[00:03:24]>> It is a verb with a small extra word, right? Like wake up or sit down.

[00:03:30]>> Exactly. A phrasal verb is a verb plus another word, often a preposition or an adverb. And together they make a special meaning. So wake and wake up are close but not exactly the same.

[00:03:44]>> Right. And phrasal verbs are very common in spoken English. That is why they matter so much.

[00:03:51]>> I think learners sometimes feel scared of them.

[00:03:54]>> Yes. Because there are many of them. But the good news is this. You do not need all of them today. You only need the most useful ones first.

[00:04:05]>> Good. Because if you give me a hundred at once, I will give up and eat a snack.

[00:04:10]>> That is honest. So today we will go step by step through 30 essential phrasal verbs. We'll group them by daily life.

[00:04:19]>> I like that. It feels easier.

[00:04:22]>> Let's start with morning phrasal verbs.

[00:04:24]Number one, wake up.

[00:04:27]>> Very important. I wake up at 6:30 on weekdays, but on weekends I wake up much later.

[00:04:33]>> Good. Wake up means stop sleeping. It happens naturally or someone can wake you up.

[00:04:40]>> So my alarm wakes me up but coffee brings me back to life.

[00:04:44]>> Nicely said. Number two, get up.

[00:04:48]>> Wait, what is the difference between wake up and get up?

[00:04:51]>> Good question. Wake up means your eyes open and you stop sleeping. Get up means you leave your bed and stand up. Ah, so sometimes I wake up at 7, but I do not get up until 7:20.

[00:05:06]>> Exactly. That is very natural English.

[00:05:09]>> I think many people do that, especially in winter.

[00:05:13]>> Very true. Number three, turn off.

[00:05:16]>> That one I know. I turn off my alarm every morning.

[00:05:20]>> Yes, turn off means stop a machine, light, or sound. For example, turn off the TV or turn off your phone. I also turn off my alarm and then sometimes I regret it.

[00:05:33]>> That sounds realistic. Number four, put on.

[00:05:37]>> Put on clothes.

[00:05:39]>> Yes, put on means place clothing, glasses, or even makeup on your body.

[00:05:45]For example, I put on my jacket or I put on my shoes.

[00:05:50]>> I put on a sweater almost every morning because my apartment is cold.

[00:05:54]>> Good. Number five, head out. I like that one, but explain it simply.

[00:06:00]>> Head out means leave a place and start going somewhere. It's informal and very common. For example, I head out at 8 or we're heading out now.

[00:06:12]>> So, instead of I'm leaving home, I can say, I'm heading out.

[00:06:16]>> Exactly. That sounds very natural in conversation.

[00:06:20]>> Nice. We already have a full morning.

[00:06:23]>> Yes. And we're only getting started.

[00:06:25]Now, let's move into getting around town. Number six, pick up.

[00:06:30]>> This one has many meanings, right?

[00:06:32]>> Yes. But let's start with the most common daily meaning. Pick up can mean collect a person or thing. For example, I pick up my brother from school or I pick up my order from the store.

[00:06:45]>> I pick up coffee on my way to work sometimes.

[00:06:48]>> Perfect. Another meaning is learn something, but today we're focusing on daily life.

[00:06:55]>> Good, because one phrasal verb with six meanings can make my brain sit down and cry.

[00:07:01]>> Fair point. Number seven, drop off.

[00:07:04]>> Is that the opposite of pick up?

[00:07:07]>> Often, yes. Drop off means take someone or something to a place and leave them there. For example, I drop off my package at the post office or she drops off her son at school.

[00:07:20]>> So, I pick up my friend at 6 and I drop him off at home at 10:00.

[00:07:25]>> Exactly. Very useful for daily routines.

[00:07:29]Number eight, look for.

[00:07:31]>> That is one of the most useful ones ever.

[00:07:34]>> Yes, look for means try to find something. For example, I'm looking for my keys or she's looking for a new job.

[00:07:43]I look for my keys almost every day.

[00:07:45]They enjoy hiding from me.

[00:07:47]>> That sounds stressful. Number nine, find out.

[00:07:52]>> Wait, what is the difference between look for and find out?

[00:07:55]>> Good question. Look for means search.

[00:07:59]Find out means learn or discover information. For example, I found out the meeting starts at 9. Or we found out the store is closed. Ah, so I look for my keys, but I find out my keys are in my bag.

[00:08:13]>> Exactly right.

[00:08:14]>> That one is clearer now.

[00:08:16]>> Number 10. Run into.

[00:08:18]>> Oh, I hear that one a lot. It does not always mean physically hitting something. Right.

[00:08:23]>> Right. In daily conversation, run into often means meet someone by chance. For example, I ran into an old friend at the supermarket.

[00:08:32]>> Really? I do that sometimes. Last week I ran into my old math teacher near the train station.

[00:08:38]>> That is a great example. It can also mean face a problem like we ran into traffic. But the people meaning is more common in casual conversation.

[00:08:48]>> Good. So if I say I ran into my neighbor, it means I met them unexpectedly.

[00:08:54]>> Exactly.

[00:08:54]>> Now we have a busy morning outside the house too.

[00:08:58]>> Yes. Let's move to social life. Number 11. Catch up. I use this one all the time. When I meet a friend after a long time, we catch up.

[00:09:08]>> Perfect. Catch up means talk and share recent news after not seeing someone for some time.

[00:09:14]>> My friend and I met on Saturday and we caught up for almost 2 hours.

[00:09:18]>> Great example. Number 12, hang out.

[00:09:21]>> That one is very casual.

[00:09:23]>> Yes, hang out means spend time together in a relaxed way. For example, we hang out at a cafe or I like hanging out with my cousins.

[00:09:33]>> I think learners should know this because native speakers say it a lot.

[00:09:37]>> Absolutely. It is one of the most natural social phrasal verbs.

[00:09:41]>> So, if I say, "Do you want to hang out this weekend?" That sounds normal.

[00:09:45]>> Very normal. Number 13, bring up.

[00:09:48]>> Hm. What does that mean?

[00:09:50]>> Bring up means introduce a topic in conversation. For example, he brought up the new project or why did you bring that up?

[00:09:59]>> Oh, I see. So, if we are having dinner and I suddenly talk about work, I bring up work.

[00:10:05]>> Exactly. It's often used when a topic appears in conversation.

[00:10:09]>> That is really useful.

[00:10:10]>> Number 14, come back.

[00:10:13]>> This one sounds easy.

[00:10:14]>> Yes, but it is important. Come back means return. For example, I'll come back later or she came back from vacation yesterday. I also say that memory came back to me, but maybe that's a different use.

[00:10:28]>> It is related and it's still very natural. Good point.

[00:10:31]>> Nice. Social English is full of these.

[00:10:34]>> It really is. Now, let's move to work and study life. Number 15, figure out.

[00:10:40]>> This is one of my favorites, but give us the simple meaning.

[00:10:44]>> Figure out means understand or solve something after thinking about it. For example, I can't figure out this problem or we figured out how to fix it.

[00:10:54]>> I try to figure out my schedule every Sunday night.

[00:10:57]>> Very practical. Number 16. Work out.

[00:11:01]>> Wait, this one is tricky. It can mean exercise, right?

[00:11:05]>> Yes, but it also has another daily meaning. Workout can mean end well or succeed. For example, don't worry, it will work out.

[00:11:14]>> Oh, I like that meaning. So if I say my plan worked out, it means it succeeded.

[00:11:19]>> Exactly. It can also mean solve like we worked it out together. That means we solved the problem together.

[00:11:26]>> That is a really helpful phrasal verb.

[00:11:28]>> Number 17, deal with.

[00:11:31]>> I hear this one in work conversations a lot.

[00:11:34]>> Yes, deal with means handle a problem, situation, or person. For example, I need to deal with these emails. Or she deals with customer complaints.

[00:11:45]>> I deal with messages better in the morning than at night.

[00:11:49]>> Good example. Number 18, fill out.

[00:11:52]>> Is that for forms?

[00:11:54]>> Exactly. Fill out means complete a form or document by writing information on it. For example, please fill out this form or I filled out the job application.

[00:12:05]>> So, if I go to a clinic, I may need to fill out a form first. Yes, exactly.

[00:12:10]Number 19, check in.

[00:12:13]>> Ah, travel English.

[00:12:14]>> Travel English and everyday English, too. Check in can mean arrive and report your presence at a hotel, airport, or office. It can also mean contact someone briefly to see how they're doing.

[00:12:27]>> Oh, that second meaning is nice. So, I can say, I checked in with my friend after her exam.

[00:12:33]>> Yes, very natural. And at the airport, you check in for your flight. Two useful meanings. Good.

[00:12:40]>> Number 20. Show up.

[00:12:42]>> That one means arrive, right?

[00:12:44]>> Yes. Show up means arrive somewhere.

[00:12:47]Often when your presence matters. For example, he showed up late. Or thanks for showing up.

[00:12:54]>> I think this one is very common in conversation. People say, "She never showed up." Or, "A lot of people showed up."

[00:13:01]>> Exactly. It's essential daily English >> and a little dramatic sometimes.

[00:13:06]>> Yes. sometimes.

[00:13:08]>> Okay, we now have work, study, travel, and life. What comes next?

[00:13:13]>> Let's move to home and organization.

[00:13:16]Number 21, set up.

[00:13:18]>> That means arrange something so it is ready to use. Right.

[00:13:22]>> Exactly. For example, I set up my desk.

[00:13:26]We set up the meeting. Or he set up his new phone.

[00:13:29]>> I set up my workspace every Monday morning with my notebook, water, and headphones.

[00:13:35]>> Very nice. Number 22, clean up.

[00:13:38]>> This one hurts a little.

[00:13:40]>> I know. Clean up means make a place clean and tidy. For example, I need to clean up the kitchen. Or, please clean up your room.

[00:13:50]>> I say, "I'm going to clean up." And then I look at one shelf for 10 minutes.

[00:13:55]>> That sounds familiar, but yes, clean up is a very common home phrasal verb.

[00:14:00]>> I think parents use it every day, >> probably. Now, let's go to habits and self-control. Number 23, put off.

[00:14:10]>> I know this one because I do it too often.

[00:14:13]>> Yes, put off means delay doing something. For example, I keep putting off my dentist appointment or don't put off your homework.

[00:14:23]>> I put off cleaning and then the cleaning gets bigger and angrier.

[00:14:27]>> That is a funny but accurate description.

[00:14:30]>> Thank you. Number 24. Give up.

[00:14:34]>> Important but a little sad. Sometimes >> it can be. Give up means stop trying or stop doing something. For example, don't give up or he gave up smoking.

[00:14:47]>> Oh, that second meaning is useful too.

[00:14:50]It can mean stop a habit.

[00:14:52]>> Yes. So context matters. Sometimes give up is negative like quitting too early.

[00:14:58]Sometimes it is positive like giving up junk food. Good point. Number 25.

[00:15:04]>> Keep up.

[00:15:06]>> H. What does that mean?

[00:15:08]>> Keep up means continue at the same level or move at the same speed. For example, I can't keep up with all these messages or keep up the good work.

[00:15:19]>> Ah, so if my teacher speaks too fast, I can say I can't keep up.

[00:15:24]>> Exactly. Or if you want to continue a good habit, you can say, "I want to keep up my morning routine."

[00:15:31]>> Nice. That one is really useful.

[00:15:34]>> Number 26, calm down.

[00:15:36]>> Very important in modern life.

[00:15:39]>> Yes, calm down means become less upset, less excited, or less nervous. For example, take a deep breath and calm down.

[00:15:48]>> I tell myself that when I lose my phone for 5 seconds. That sounds like a regular problem for you.

[00:15:55]>> It is my phone and keys like adventure.

[00:15:59]>> Number 27. Cut down on.

[00:16:02]>> That means reduce something.

[00:16:04]>> Exactly. Cut down on means reduce the amount of something. For example, I'm trying to cut down on sugar or she wants to cut down on screen time.

[00:16:16]>> I'm trying to cut down on late night videos.

[00:16:19]>> Good. Very real example. Number 28. Try out.

[00:16:24]>> I like this one. It sounds positive.

[00:16:27]>> Yes, try out means test something to see if you like it or if it works. For example, I want to try out this new app or we tried out a new cafe.

[00:16:38]>> I tried out a new study method last month and it actually helped.

[00:16:42]>> Excellent example.

[00:16:44]>> And number 29, >> turn down.

[00:16:47]>> Ooh, that one has more than one meaning, too. Yes, it can mean reduce volume like turn down the music. It can also mean refuse an offer or invitation. For example, I turned down the job or she turned down the invitation.

[00:17:05]>> So, if my TV is too loud, I turn it down. If someone invites me out and I say no, I turn them down.

[00:17:12]>> Correct.

[00:17:13]>> Very good.

[00:17:15]>> And finally, number 30, end up. I hear this one all the time, but explain it simply.

[00:17:22]>> End up means finally arrive at a result or situation, sometimes unexpectedly.

[00:17:29]For example, we planned to stay home, but we ended up going out. Or, I ended up cleaning the whole kitchen.

[00:17:38]>> That is such a daily life phrasal verb.

[00:17:41]My whole weekend can be described with end up.

[00:17:44]>> I believe that. Like I wanted to clean one shelf, but I ended up reading old notebooks for an hour.

[00:17:51]>> Exactly. That is perfect English.

[00:17:54]>> I think this lesson is helping a lot because the verbs are not separate. They connect to real daily life.

[00:18:01]>> That is the key. Learners remember phrasal verbs better when they hear them in real situations.

[00:18:07]>> Can we do a full daily routine with several of them together?

[00:18:11]>> Great idea. I'll start. I wake up at 6:30, get up at 6:45, turn off my alarm, put on my clothes, and head out at 8.

[00:18:24]>> Nice. Here's mine. On my way to work, I pick up coffee. After work, I sometimes run into a friend and we hang out for a while.

[00:18:32]>> Excellent. Now, let's add work. At work, I check in, deal with emails, fill out forms, and try to figure out my schedule. And at home, I clean up a little, but sometimes I put off bigger chores.

[00:18:48]>> Very honest.

[00:18:49]>> Then I try to calm down, cut down on screen time, and maybe try out a new recipe.

[00:18:56]>> Great. And sometimes plans change.

[00:18:59]>> Yes, I plan to sleep early, but I end up watching videos.

[00:19:04]>> That is an excellent final example.

[00:19:06]>> Thank you. I think I surprised myself twice in one video.

[00:19:10]>> That is good progress.

[00:19:14]You know, Leo, while we were talking, we used many useful phrasal verbs. Let's go through some important phrasal verbs from today's conversation.

[00:19:23]>> Yes, please. This is the part where my brain says, "Okay, now I really understand."

[00:19:28]>> First word, wake up. This means stop sleeping.

[00:19:32]>> Oh, yes. A very important daily phrasal verb.

[00:19:36]>> Exactly. In our conversation, we used it for the beginning of the day. For example, I wake up at 6:30 on weekdays.

[00:19:43]My baby wakes up very early. The noise outside woke me up.

[00:19:48]>> And you can also say, I wake up feeling tired on Mondays.

[00:19:52]>> Very good. A useful note is this. Wake up happens first and get up happens after. What time do you usually wake up?

[00:20:01]>> Around 7, but I don't always like it.

[00:20:04]>> Next word, pickup. This means collect someone or something.

[00:20:09]>> Right. We used it for coffee, friends, and daily errands.

[00:20:13]>> Exactly. For example, I pick up my order after work. Can you pick me up at the station? She picked up some milk on the way home.

[00:20:21]>> And you can also say, I need to pick up my glasses from the shop.

[00:20:25]>> Very nice. A common mistake is trying to use only take in every situation. Pickup is very natural for collecting. What do you pick up most often? coffee and groceries.

[00:20:37]>> Next word, run into. This means meet someone unexpectedly.

[00:20:42]>> I really like this one because it sounds so natural.

[00:20:45]>> Yes, in our conversation, you ran into your old math teacher. For example, I ran into an old friend downtown. She ran into her neighbor at the supermarket. We ran into my cousin at the mall.

[00:20:59]>> And you can also say, I always run into someone I know when I'm in a hurry. That is very real. Another meaning is face a problem. But for now the people meaning is enough. Who do you usually run into?

[00:21:13]>> Neighbors. Always neighbors.

[00:21:15]>> Next word catch up. This means talk and share news after some time apart.

[00:21:21]>> One of my favorite social phrasal verbs.

[00:21:24]>> Mine too. For example, I met my friend to catch up. We need to catch up soon.

[00:21:30]They caught up over lunch. And you can also say, "I called my cousin to catch up last night."

[00:21:35]>> Exactly. A useful note. This one is often about conversation, not speed.

[00:21:41]What do you usually catch up about?

[00:21:43]>> Work, family, and funny little life problems.

[00:21:47]>> Next word, figure out. This means understand or solve something.

[00:21:52]>> Yes. Very useful for work, study, and daily life.

[00:21:56]>> Exactly. For example, I can't figure out this app. We figured out the answer together. She is trying to figure out her schedule.

[00:22:05]>> And you can also say, I need time to figure things out.

[00:22:09]>> Very good. A common pattern is figure out how or figure out what. What do you often try to figure out?

[00:22:16]>> My schedule and sometimes my own decisions.

[00:22:20]>> Next word, workout. This can mean exercise, but in our conversation, it meant succeed or end well.

[00:22:27]>> That meaning is so helpful. Yes. For example, don't worry, it will work out.

[00:22:33]Our plan worked out well. We had a problem, but we worked it out.

[00:22:37]>> And you can also say, at first it was difficult, but everything worked out in the end.

[00:22:42]>> Excellent. Be careful because context changes the meaning. What do you hope will work out this week?

[00:22:49]>> My sleep schedule. That is my dream.

[00:22:52]>> Next word, put off. This means delay doing something. the phrasal verb of my old weekend habits.

[00:22:59]>> Yes. For example, don't put off your homework. I keep putting off my dentist appointment. She puts off difficult tasks until Friday.

[00:23:09]>> And you can also say, I put off cleaning for 2 days.

[00:23:12]>> Exactly. A useful tip is to pair it with tasks and appointments. What do you put off most often?

[00:23:19]>> Laundry. I respect it, but I avoid it.

[00:23:22]>> Next word, keep up. This means continue at the same level or stay at the same speed.

[00:23:28]>> This one becomes clearer for me now.

[00:23:31]>> Good. For example, I can't keep up with all these messages. She wants to keep up her healthy habits. Keep up the good work.

[00:23:39]>> And you can also say, the teacher speaks so fast that I can't keep up.

[00:23:44]>> Very nice. This one is common in study and work English. What is hard to keep up with in your life?

[00:23:50]>> Notifications. There are too many. Next word, turn down. This means reduce something like sound or refuse something like an invitation.

[00:24:01]>> A twoin one phrasal verb.

[00:24:03]>> Exactly. For example, please turn down the music. He turned down the job offer.

[00:24:09]She turned down dinner because she was tired.

[00:24:12]>> And you can also say, I turned down the volume because it was too loud.

[00:24:16]>> Very good. Learners should watch the context closely here. What do you turn down more often? Volume or invitations?

[00:24:25]>> Probably volume. I'm not that popular.

[00:24:28]>> Next word, end up. This means finally arrive at a result. Often one you did not plan.

[00:24:34]>> Yes, I use this one a lot.

[00:24:37]>> For example, we ended up staying home. I ended up cooking dinner. She planned to rest, but she ended up working late. And you can also say I went out for one thing and ended up buying three things.

[00:24:50]>> That is a very real example. A useful pattern is end up doing something. What do you end up doing too often?

[00:24:59]>> Starting one task and ending up in a completely different task.

[00:25:03]>> Last word, clean up. This means make a place clean and tidy.

[00:25:08]>> This is a very normal daily life phrasal verb.

[00:25:11]>> Yes. For example, I need to clean up the kitchen. Please clean up after dinner.

[00:25:16]We cleaned up before our guests arrived.

[00:25:19]>> And you can also say, I cleaned up my desk and now I can think better.

[00:25:23]>> Excellent. This one is very common in family and home English. What place do you clean up first when you want to feel better?

[00:25:31]>> My desk. If my desk looks bad, my brain looks bad.

[00:25:36]>> Great answer. Let's summarize today's key phrasal verbs. Wake up means stop sleeping. Pick up means collect someone or something. Run into means meet someone unexpectedly. Catch up means talk after time apart. Figure out means understand or solve. Workout means succeed or solve. Put off means delay.

[00:26:00]Keep up means continue or stay at the same speed. Turn down means reduce or refuse. End up means finally arrive at a result. And cleanup means make a place tidy.

[00:26:13]>> That is a very strong list. These are real phrasal verbs for real daily English.

[00:26:21]>> Okay, Leo, that was a lot of talking about phrasal verbs.

[00:26:25]>> Yes, it was. I think we just walked through an entire day with 30 little English tools.

[00:26:31]>> I think so, too. Let's think about what we learned.

[00:26:34]>> Good idea. My brain likes a clean review. First, we learned morning routine phrasal verbs. We used phrases like wake up, get up, turn off, put on, and head out.

[00:26:47]>> Then we moved into daily movement and errands. We talked about pick up, drop off, look for, find out, and run into.

[00:26:56]>> After that, we covered social English.

[00:26:59]We used catch up, hang out, bring up, and come back. Then we went into work, study, and practical life. We practiced figure out, work out, deal with, fill out, check in, and show up. After that, we talked about home and habits. We used set up, clean up, put off, give up, keep up, calm down, cut down on, and try out.

[00:27:28]And finally, we finished with flexible daily phrasal verbs like turn down and end up.

[00:27:35]>> The big lesson is this. Don't study phrasal verbs as random lists only.

[00:27:41]Learn them in real situations.

[00:27:43]>> Yes. Learn the ones you actually need in your life.

[00:27:47]>> Exactly. Use short personal examples like I wake up at 7. I put off laundry.

[00:27:54]Or I ran into an old friend. When you do that, phrasal verbs stop looking scary.

[00:27:59]>> Yes, they start feeling useful >> and that is the goal.

[00:28:06]>> Now, we want to hear from you. This is our favorite part.

[00:28:10]>> Yes, we always love reading your comments because we learn from your English, too.

[00:28:14]>> Our question of the day is, which phrasal verb from today's lesson do you think is the most useful for your daily life and why?

[00:28:23]>> I'll answer first. For me, the most useful one is put off because I really do put off chores sometimes and I hear this phrasal verb a lot in real life.

[00:28:32]>> Good answer. For me, the most useful one is figure out because I use it in work, daily planning, and problem solving. I say it all the time.

[00:28:42]>> See, we have different answers and that's okay.

[00:28:45]>> Yes, different phrasal verbs become important in different lives.

[00:28:49]>> So, viewers, we want to know about you.

[00:28:52]Which one do you want to use this week?

[00:28:54]>> You can write something simple like the most useful phrasal verb for me is wake up because I use it every day.

[00:29:00]>> Or I think figure out is useful because I need it for work and study >> or I want to practice catch up because I talk to friends in English.

[00:29:10]>> Please tell us in the comments. Write the most useful phrasal verb for me is blank because blank. It helps us make better videos and helps you practice writing in English.
