- Hello everyone and welcome back

9582

00:11
to English with Lucy.

11100
1410
00:12
Today, I'm going to talk to you
3
12510
1980
00:14
about all the phrasal verbs that go with turn.
4
14490
3850
00:18
So this video is going to be excellent
5
18340
1700
00:20
for improving your vocabulary,
6
20040
2090
00:22
which, in turn, will help you
7
22130
1240
00:23
with your listening and your speaking.
8
23370
1930
00:25
However, if you want to take your listening
9
25300
2100
00:27
and your pronunciation to the next level,
10
27400
2600
00:30
I highly recommend listening to audio books.
11
30000
3320
00:33
And, in my opinion, the best platform
12
33320
2140
00:35
for downloading audio books is Audible.
13
35460
2430
00:37
If you want to improve your pronunciation,
14
37890
2190
00:40
choose a British narrator,
15
40080
1990
00:42
for example, Stephen Fry reading Harry Potter,
16
42070
3200
00:45
and read the physical book
17
45270
1630
00:46
as you're listening to the audio book.
18
46900
2150
00:49
That is the perfect way
19
49050
1480
00:50
to improve your listening and your pronunciation.
20
50530
2350
00:52
I can offer you one free audio book,
21
52880
2200
00:55
that's a 30 day free trial.
22
55080
2040
00:57
All you've got to do is click on the link
23
57120
1620
00:58
in the description box and sign up.
24
58740
1900
01:00
Right, let's get on with the phrasal verb lesson.
25
60640
3650
01:04
So the first one, pretty easy,
26
64290
2290
01:06
we have to turn on.
27
66580
2280
01:08
And this means to start a device
28
68860
1640
01:10
by switching it on.
29
70500
1300
01:11
That's a synonym.
30
71800
1240
01:13
For example.
31
73040
890
01:13
Can you turn off the lights
32
73930
1120
01:15
when you leave please?
33
75050
1510
01:16
Also note that to turn on a person
34
76560
2280
01:18
means to excite them emotionally.
35
78840
3405
01:22
(romantic music)
36
82245
2500
01:24
And physically.
37
84745
1101
01:25
(laughs)
38
85846
1824
01:27
But I'm sure if you are interested in that
39
87670
1650
01:29
then you can google it yourself.
40
89320
2210
01:31
I'm not talking about it here.
41
91530
1770
01:33
Then we have number two, to turn off.
42
93300
3060
01:36
This means to stop a device
43
96360
2330
01:38
by switching it off.
44
98690
1820
01:40
For example.
45
100510
840
01:41
Turn off the TV and listen to me.
46
101350
2410
01:43
And it can also mean to really not excite somebody
47
103760
2900
01:46
emotionally or physically.
48
106660
2000
01:48
Now, slightly more difficult, to turn out.
49
108660
3350
01:52
To turn out means to result or to end up.
50
112010
3190
01:55
For example.
51
115200
1270
01:56
Oh, I thought my homework
52
116470
1760
01:58
was gonna turn out better than this.
53
118230
2420
02:00
I thought my homework was going
54
120650
1390
02:02
to end up better than this.
55
122040
2010
02:04
Number four.
56
124050
1300
02:05
Pretty simple, to turn around.
57
125350
2353
02:10
I almost fell over.
58
130720
1280
02:12
To turn around means to rotate,
59
132000
2960
02:14
to physically rotate something.
60
134960
2010
02:16
For example.
61
136970
950
02:17
Turn around, you've left the label in your jacket.
62
137920
2800
02:20
A situation can also turn around.
63
140720
2860
02:23
You can also turn back,
64
143580
2230
02:25
and this is to return
65
145810
1230
02:27
to a previous state of being.
66
147040
1880
02:28
For example.
67
148920
950
02:29
Once you move out, there's no turning back.
68
149870
3130
02:33
You cannot return to living with me.
69
153000
2480
02:35
Once you move out, you can't turn back.
70
155480
2660
02:38
We also have to turn against,
71
158140
2380
02:40
and to turn against means to oppose,
72
160520
3030
02:43
often suddenly.
73
163550
1150
02:44
So someone who was your friend
74
164700
1590
02:46
might turn against you and become your enemy.
75
166290
2960
02:49
For example.
76
169250
1190
02:50
We were great friends and then she turned against me
77
170440
2420
02:52
and started gossiping about me.
78
172860
2100
02:54
Then we have to turn in,
79
174960
1790
02:56
and this means to submit something
80
176750
2440
02:59
or to give something.
81
179190
1480
03:00
For example.
82
180670
833
03:01
I want you all to turn in your homework
83
181503
1777
03:03
on Monday morning.
84
183280
1580
03:04
Next, we have to turn down,
85
184860
2040
03:06
and this means to refuse,
86
186900
1930
03:08
decline or reject something.
87
188830
2300
03:11
For example.
88
191130
1610
03:12
I asked him out but he turned me down,
89
192740
2530
03:15
he rejected me.
90
195270
1690
03:16
We also have to turn into,
91
196960
2250
03:19
and this means to transform into something.
92
199210
2910
03:22
For example.
93
202120
900
03:23
She clicked her fingers
94
203020
1540
03:24
and he turned into a frog.
95
204560
2540
03:27
Finally, we have to turn up,
96
207100
2110
03:29
and this means to appear suddenly
97
209210
1990
03:31
or to attend an event.
98
211200
1930
03:33
For example.
99
213130
950
03:34
Oh, look who just turned up!
100
214080
2460
03:36
And this means, Oh, look who just appeared!
101
216540
2860
03:39
Oh, look who is attending the event!
102
219400
3030
03:42
Right, that's it for today's lesson.
103
222430
2020
03:44
I hope you learned something
104
224450
1200
03:45
and I hope you enjoyed it.
105
225650
1230
03:46
Please give me some recommendations
106
226880
2130
03:49

107
229010
1590
03:50
that you would like to see.
108
230600
990
03:51
I'd love to do lots of work on phrasal verbs
109
231590
2750
03:54
as I'm noticing a lot of errors in the comments.
110
234340
2810
03:57
Your homework for today is to pick
111
237150
1490
03:58
three phrasal verbs that you saw in this video
112
238640
2380
04:01
and write funny sentences in the comment section.
113
241020
4030
04:05
Let's see if you can make me laugh.
114
245050
1790
04:06
It's not very hard.
115
246840
1420
04:08

04:16
I've got my Facebook,
