free challenge to improve your English fluency each day

we are focusing on an

introduction to

one of the five most

important skills in English Day one yesterday was

day two today is all about the key to fluency to it advanced fluency which is

phrasal verbs, yes

Phrasal verbs the name doesn't matter

But the idea is that you have a verb plus a preposition

What is a phrasal verb a phrasal verb is the way that native speakers?

communicate we don't use a lot of the

Academic verbs that you learn in your textbook in your english class

That's the problem a lot of English learners ask me Daddy

Why can I understand you but I can't understand other

native English speakers that's because as an English teacher I've

learned to speak in Simple English using more academic

Verbs, but native English speakers when I talk with my friends for native English speakers and when you talk with your friends who are native

English speakers

they're going to use more phrasal verbs so phrasal verb is a base verb plus a preposition a

lot of our phrasal verbs come

from the verb get

This is probably the most used verb for a phrasal verb so for example

Get into get out of get by get on

Get over and so on get is the verb

into

Out of over by these are prepositions, so a phrasal verb is a verb pleasant preposition

I know. This is really boring right am I boring you I hope not let's make this interesting

Yes, let's talk about how to improve your fluency using phrasal verbs

So I mentioned to you that this is day, two of five days of our English fluency

challenge and

Yesterday we talked about pronunciation that is one key to becoming fluent today. I'm going to give you an introduction to

phrasal verbs

Hello, Mustafa. Hello, bre

Hello, Jabbar. Hello someone from Yemen, please tell me in the comments

Where are you from I would love to know where you're from and I'll tell you more about phrasal verbs

so

the difficulty with phrasal verbs is that we have a lot of them and they look very similar a

lot of English learners

feel that phrasal verbs are

Impossible they feel that they're very difficult and so well let me ask you do you think that phrasal verbs are?

difficult, yes

They don't have to be though. We're going to make it easy today, so phrasal verbs

Phrasal verbs can be difficult because we're not learning them in the right way

there's a lot of phrasal verbs that look very similar and

I think that when we look at all of these verbs that look very similar

You get into get over get by get

Gets a little is I going to say get

into get over get by get Down -

There's a lot of phrasal verbs with get and we seek get good get oh

How do I tell the difference between all of these?

So we get frustrated and we just say you know what I'm not going to learn phrasal verbs

I don't really need it my teacher never taught me phrasal verb so why do I need it well?

You know what your teacher if they didn't teach you phrasal verbs

They weren't a very good teacher. Sorry to say so

Get up. Yes. Thank you card. Oh get along. Oh II, thank you so much for adding your examples

You know some phrasal verbs

You know a lot of phrasal verbs already so phrasal verbs have to be learned, but do not

Learn them the wrong way the wrong way is to

memorize a list of phrasal verbs to have a long list of

hundreds of phrasal verbs all of these phrasal verbs just

Numbered on a list oh go memorize them no, that's not going to be easy that's going to be the most

difficult way to learn phrasal verbs

and I think that's the most popular way that a lot of people are learning in their english class or with a textbook did your

Teacher ever tell you to memorize a list of phrasal verbs

Yes

Okay, we have to stop that it's not the easiest way, so the easiest way

I'm going to share the easiest way with you to learn phrasal verbs

We have to start with the meaning and the context of what we want to

Express

So we have to begin by thinking. How are we going to express our idea?

What is it that we want to say and we have to start?

by listening we have to start by

immersing Ourselves in English and

Listening to how natives

native English speakers

communicate with phrasal verbs

most of the time

You can understand the meaning of a phrasal verb by listening to the whole sentence or the conversation

That native English speakers are having or fluent English speakers

When you listen your brain will make the connection oh

Get into for example. Let's say that you're listening to a conversation and

people are saying

People are getting into arguments about

Politics it happens all the time right people love to argue about politics, especially nowadays right? Well don't worry

We're not going to talk about politics

but let's look at the example people are getting into or people get into a lot of

Arguments about politics, so what does get into me? Let's pretend. You've never

Heard this phrasal verb before get into what do you think it means you can tell me in the comments?

What does get into?

mean from this example people get into arguments because of politics

When you listen to that sentence your brain wants to understand so your brain is going to tell you?

The answer it's going to guess and you're probably going to be right?

Involved be part of yes to discuss to get into to enter

Very good answers you guys are so smart. Thank you so much for writing your answers

exactly, so you can understand from the

context

So what I'm telling you is do not

Memorize a list of phrasal verbs the right way to learn

Phrasal verbs for fluency for real communication is to listen to conversations

where people are using phrasal verbs these would be native speakers or

very fluent English speakers that are using phrasal verbs

So we have to immerse ourselves in English now the problem with that is sometimes

Made to speak very quickly, Nato's use a lot of phrasal verbs. Maybe it's difficult to understand the context of the situation

so that's why it's important to learn phrasal verbs with a

Conversational based course or a teacher that's what we do at go natural

English with the Rapid English method program some of you are familiar with that

let me give you more examples today during our free lesson here's another example get into

Can mean something else what if I told you?

I'm very

I'm I'm very health Conscious I

Love to get into

Healthy foods let me show you

I'm at my kitchen table and and right next to all of my fruits and vegetables and my seeds and stuff

I'm

into

pepitas

pepitas these are

pumpkin seeds

roasted with salt

I'm getting really into these as a healthy snack so now

What does get into me? It's a little bit different. It doesn't just mean to enter or to discuss it

means to be interested in I have an interest in this thing, so that's another problem because

We can have the same phrasal verb but it can mean many different things

that's another reason why you have to listen to the sentence to the

Context to the situation and guess because you're smart you have to have confidence in yourself your brain is going to guess

You're going to try to understand and most of the time you'll be right

So the problem is not listening to enough

conversation or

conversational based courses

Yes, so interested along. Thank you for your answer

Yeah, so I'll share a few more examples with you

If you want me to should I share a few more examples one more example. Yeah one more example

Okay, I'll share one more example because we just have a couple more minutes

so we have another phrasal verb

get

Over if you just look at the phrasal verb get over you don't know what it means, right?

no, so if I tell you a sentence if you're listening to me talk to my friends

And I'm saying okay

People are getting into arguments over politics. It's hard for them to get over

their differences

To get over their differences

getting into arguments

It's hard for them to get over their differences. So what do you guys?

Get over

Means yeah great Nilo to overcome something to move on along you guys are so smart I

Can't read your name. It's an arabic. But you said leave yeah, it's like to leave. Thank you for your answer

ally to solve the problem you guys are so smart okay excellent, so

To get over it commune to forgive to forget to solve the problem

What if I said like?

you know there's

Something in my way. I need to jump over it or get over it

that's a completely different meaning so again we have to learn phrasal verbs from the

Conversation from from the context right we can't just memorize a list of these phrasal verbs and understand them

so I hope that

Today we could learn a couple no more than a couple four

Phrasal verbs and more importantly the right way to learn more

phrasal verbs so today we learned get into

Meaning to enter into a discussion or get into you like to be

Interested in something and we learned to get over to forget or to leave

to overcome and to get over like to

Jump over something like if there is something in your way, you're walking along

Do you do oh, I can get over it there doo doo doo doo. Yes?

Yes, so I'm speaking very quickly because I'm excited to teach you guys

I love to help you with your English fluency and phrasal verbs are really the key to

Advanced English fluency trust me on this this is what makes the difference between intermediate and

advanced fluency in the English language

So you guys are doing great the most important thing

Is that you understand the right way to learn and that's why?

Go natural English is here to show you how to learn in a more natural way by learning through

conversations through real-life examples

This is the best way to learn because you'll understand through context and you'll be a better

learner for the rest of your life even with other languages

So to continue learning phrasal verbs even on your own you need to listen to more conversations

especially with native speakers and

get help to break those to break down to understand them to understand the phrasal verbs from

conversation so that's it for today for our phrasal verb
