50 MUST-KNOW Phrasal Verbs in 30 minutes | Improve Your English INSTANTLY

Hi there. This is Harry. And welcome back  to Advanced English Lessons with Harry,  

where we try to help you to get a better  understanding of the English language.

So and this particular advanced English  lesson, we've got a whopping big 50. Yeah,  

five zero. Really important  and phrasal verbs in English.

Now phrasal verbs are used  every day by the British

native speakers. They use them without  really knowing that they're referred  

to as phrasal verbs, just a  natural part of their speech.

But time and time again, all  the students that I deal with,  

they want to know phrasal verbs.  They want to know which ones to use,  

they want to know how to use them. So this  is a golden opportunity for you. I've got 50

So this is a little bit of a marathon  okay. So you have to stay with me on this.

So let's get started

To back down. When we back down, we  retreat or we take a lesser position.  

So if you're making a stand against your boss,  say no, no, no, I'm not going to do it. No,  

I can't, I really can't. And  then after ten minutes you say,  

okay, I can stay late, but only 1 or  2 days. So you back down, you retreat.

You reverse your previous decision to back down.

Blow up. Well, this has a couple of meanings.  You can blow up balloons for the kid's birthday  

party. So, yeah, you blow up the balloons. But  you can also blow up the building if you forget  

to turn off the gas. And then you switch on the  electricity. Boom. That's what's going to happen.

So blow up.

Break down. This also has a couple of meanings.  The car can break down on your way to work.  

Okay. A relationship can break down and you  can break down some numbers. For example,  

if you're an accountant and you have a figure  for €10,000 expenses, your boss might ask you  

to break it down into individual parts. What  are the individual expenses that we paid?

So to break down the numbers,  okay, or break down the figures?

Bring up again a couple of  meanings here. Bring up.

somebody is not feeling so  well and they've eaten their

breakfast in a hurry, they might bring it  up. Meaning to vomit, to bring up the food.  

Yep. So the young child of 5 or 6 coughed and  coughed, eventually brought up his breakfast.

But we can bring up a point at a meeting  where, sitting around the boardroom table  

or the meeting table and say, I'd like  to bring up a point here. So several  

good points were brought up at the meeting  yesterday. Bring up past tense, brought up.

Bump into. Well, to bump into  somebody means to meet somebody  

by accident. I bumped into Michael as  I was walking down the high street.

I wasn't expecting to see him  because I didn't know he was back,  

so I bumped into him. Guess who I bumped  into yesterday? Guess who I met yesterday?  

You weren't planning to do it. You met them  quite by accident. Okay. Or you can bump  

into somebody in the supermarket. You can bump  into somebody on a holiday you didn't believe.

I didn't realise you were going  to the same destination. Bump into

Call off. To call off means to suspend  or to stop. Yeah. The police eventually  

called off their search for the missing man  because it got very dark and they couldn't  

see what they were looking for to call  off. The football match was called off  

late because there was a very heavy downpour  of rain, and the pitch became waterlogged.

To call off means to suspend, postpone or stop

Catch up. We can catch up with our friends for  a beer on a Friday night after a busy day or a  

busy week in the office. We can catch up with our  friend in the park. You see him 100m ahead of you,  

so you run a little bit faster or walk  more quickly to catch up with him. Or  

your son or daughter who have been out  sick for a couple of weeks from school.

The teacher will say they have a bit  of work to catch up with. They have  

to catch up with everybody else  in the class. So to catch up with  

means to keep up or to get to the same  level as the other people. Catch up.

Check on if you've got a check on something  you mean you've got to see what's happening.

I'll check on that later. Meaning I will see  what is happening later. So perhaps you're doing  

an experiment in the laboratory and you have to  leave something for a couple of hours. You say,  

Okay, we'll come back to that later, and I'll  check on it and see what the progress is.

Or indeed, if you're cooking something and  you're baking a cake in the oven are just going  

to check on the cake. It should be just about  ready. I don't want to burn it. I don't want  

to overcook it. Yeah. So to check on something  or the kids are upstairs, they've gone really,  

really quiet. Why don't you go upstairs and  check on them and see what they're doing?

they should usually be making  noise. Things have gone very,  

very quiet. Check on means  to see what is happening.

Check out. Well, we have a couple of  meanings for check out. Literally,  

when we go to the supermarket and we buy our  items, we check them out. Yeah. We check out,  

we pay for the items at the cashier,  or we scan them and we pay them

through our credit card that way.

Okay, so to check out. Or we can check out from

hotel. So the checkout time is 2:00 or 12:00  or 1:00, whatever the time happens to be. So  

we go and we pay our bill. We settle our  bill so that we can stay in the hotel.

Or you might tell somebody. I'll  check out the location later. So  

you're planning a quick holiday with the  kids? You'll want to go away for the,

autumn break or the Easter  break, but you're not quite sure.

You’ve got an idea. We'd like to  go, but you need to look it up on  

the internet and check out and  see what the areas areas like.

Is it suitable for kids? Are there plenty  of things for everybody to do? I'll check  

it out later. I'll look into it  later. I'll do a bit of research.

To come across. Well, again,  a couple of meanings here.

If you're going into the town or the  market just to have a walk around and  

you find something that might be  interesting, you come across it.  

So you weren't intending buying that  particular item, but you saw it on a  

stall and you thought that your wife or husband  or boyfriend or girlfriend might like this.

So you came across it by accident.

We can also come across in a meeting  in a certain way. You can come across  

as being angry. You can come across as being  intelligent. You can come across as a little bit,

Arrogant or so different ways you can come across  depending how you speak and who you speak to,  

so to come across. Okay, so how I how do you  present yourself, how to other people see you?

Come back. Well, come back usually means return.  He came back from holidays after three weeks.

He came back to the office after being out sick.

So to come back.

Come in. Well, come in is a sort of way  of inviting somebody into your home.

Come in and have a cup of tea. Come in  while you're there and rest your feet. Okay,  

so we come in when somebody invites us to  come in or to enter their home, come in,

Come up with. But this is when we  have an idea that to come up with  

an idea means to think of something  that you hadn't thought about before.  

You’re sitting around the table, and  the boss wants people to brainstorm.

I'd like everybody to come up with at least  one, if not two, new ideas. So to come up with,  

to invent, create, think of some way that we can  get ourselves through these difficulties to come  

up with, to come up with a suggestion. Okay. So  if you're planning the holidays for the next year,  

you want people to do something together and  you're talking to the gang and you say, Look,  

why don't you come up with a few suggestions?

Let's have a chat about it the next time we meet,  and we'll decide which is the most appropriate,  

which is the one that everybody would  like to come up with some suggestions.

Okay. So you can cut down on the meat. The  doctor told you not to eat so much red meat.  

Cut down on your intake of red meat.  Cut down on your alcohol intake because

it will help your blood pressure.

Or simply you can go into the forest and cut down  the trees. Not all of them, I hope, but you can

Drop by. Okay, so you drop by your friend on  your way home. You phone your partner and say,  

look, I'm probably be about  half an hour later than usual.

I'm just going to drop by my mother to see if  she is okay. Is this something that she needs?

Or you're working on the fourth floor and your  boss is working on the maybe second floor,  

and he called you and said, look, why don't  you drop by my office later and we can chat  

about these things? Okay? So if you're on  your way to lunch, drop by on your way out.

We can talk for 20 minutes or 30  minutes to catch up. Okay. To drop by.

Another phrasal verb with drop is to drop  off. Okay? Again with new meanings. Typical  

meaning is to take somebody somewhere to drop  off the kids to school on your way to work,

To drop off your partner at the airport so that  they don't have to take a taxi. To drop off the  

laundry to the dry cleaners so that it can  be cleaned. Okay, so we drop something off,  

we take the kids, we take our partner,  we take the clothes somewhere. But you  

could also drop off to sleep. Yeah.  You’ve had a difficult working week.

You sit down on the sofa,  you decide to watch a movie,

or just generally when somebody is  advising you to take things easy,  

the doctor, for example, say,  ease up a bit on the work.

Yeah, you're doing a little bit too much. You seem  

a bit stressed. So you need to take  things a little bit easy. Why don't  

you have a break? Or why did you try to  leave the office at no later than 6:00?

Ease up on the alcohol. Take more water. So to  ease up means to slow down on certain things.

Take things a little easier.

Fall apart. Well, lots of things can fall  apart. Relationships fall apart. People  

have an argument. Their argument grows and  grows, and the relationship falls apart.

we can take a cake out of the oven.  We've cooked it a little bit too much,  

and when we pick it up, it falls apart.  Something happens. So it's a bit of a mess,  

and in the rubbish bin it goes to fall apart.

But usually, as I said earlier, about  relationships, they often fall apart.  

So I'll try not to fall apart. Meaning I try  not to get too upset over the breakup of this  

relationship. You'll get over it. Yeah, you'll  get over it. Yeah. Oh, she's taken it very badly.

I think she's going to fall apart.  I mean, really, really be upset.

fall down. Yeah. The price of property will  fall down in the times of recession or really  

high interest rates. People cannot afford  to buy the properties, so they're hoping  

that the prices will fall down. If there's an  oversupply of certain products. Too much fruit,  

too much vegetables, then the price will fall down  in the supermarkets, in the markets to fall down.

So they will go lower and lower.

Find out what to find out means to discover.  Yeah, I'll find out what's going on and I will  

let you know. I will discover what's  going on and I will let you know.

I hope Mum and Dad don't find out that we  broke the window in the garage. There's  

going to be real trouble. If they do,  they'll stop a pocket money or that  

take on mobile phones as they usually do,  so hopefully they don't find out. To find  

out means to discover or to uncover.  Uncover the truth. Find out the truth.

Get along. Well, we hopefully get along with  

many people. If you don't get along  with people, then there's a problem.

Get along with your neighbours means to have a  good relationship with them. Get along with your  

brothers and sisters to have a good relationship  with your brothers and sisters. He gets along with  

anybody. Yeah, he's one of those  personalities. Put him in a room  

with strangers. They'll be the best  of friends within ten minutes to get  

along and usually get along with in this  case, get along with anybody or everybody.

Get away. Okay. To get away means to leave for  a period of time. I'd love to get away for the  

weekend. Why don't we go this weekend? The weather  forecast is supposed to be really, really good.

Can you get away early from the office?  Can you leave the office early? Oh,  

I've been trying to get away from this for ages.  I'll do my best. Okay, so to get away means to  

leave or or to stop doing something. And so,  as I said, get away for a weekend. Get away

from work. Meaning to leave early.

Get by to get by means to survive. Okay. So  I get by on very little money these days.

So somebody who's retired, they  don't need to drive to work anymore.

They don't need to wear fancy suits  or clothes so they can get by on less  

money. They spend less. So their  pension, if they have a pension,  

goes a little bit further. I get by on  quite an easy amount of money these days.

I don't need an awful lot. In fact, I I'm on a  diet as well and doing a lot of exercise, so I get  

by without spending a lot of money on food. Okay.  So to get by means to survive, but you can also  

use it in the negative. I don't know how he gets  by on that pension. It's really, really small.

I think we need to help him okay. To get by on.

To get over. Earlier we were talking  about breakdowns of relationships or  

when relationships fall apart. Well, if they do,  

then we might give this support to a friend  and say, Don't worry, it'll take a bit of time,  

but you'll soon get over it. You'll forget about  it, or you'll move on to something different.

Okay, so to get over it means  to recover, forget about it

But literally you can get over  wall by climbing over the wall.  

So it has a couple of different meanings.

Get up. Well, this is an easy one. Hopefully you  

all get up in the morning at some  time, whether it's early or late.

I always get up very early because I  like to have a long day. To get up.

Give away. Well, to give away means  to present something to somebody.

Okay. You give away your collection of stamps  because you've really outgrown them. You don't  

need them anymore. So you give them away to your  cousin. Or if you have plenty of clothes and you  

want to recycle, upcycle whatever you wish to do.  You give them away to a charity and they perhaps  

can sell the really good branded labels in their  charity shop to raise money for their charity.

So to give something away, okay. But we can  also give away somebody's secret. Yeah. Now,  

that's not intentional, but we made a mistake.  Your best friend tells you something in secret.  

Says don't tell anybody. And of course, the  first person you meet, you blurt out and you  

give away the secret. Oh, I really shouldn't  have told you. I've given away the secret.

Please don't tell anybody else.  Okay? So to give something away.

So it's still with me, I hope, as we  move through these. So we are here at,  

What? Let me just get you that number.

Where are we? 26, 26. Now, onto number 27

To give in so we can give in to temptation. Okay,  so you're on a diet or you're fasting and you're  

walking past that beautiful, beautiful coffee  shop or that beautiful, beautiful bakery, and you

Yes. Sunday? Yes. But Monday to Friday? No.  When your sun comes in. But there's a really,  

really important football match.  Classical was on on Wednesday. I really,  

really want to watch it. So eventually you  give in because you want to watch it as well.

Yeah. So okay, only this time. But  after that no more television until  

the weekend. Okay. So to give  in means to accept something.

Give up. Well again, if we're going on that  diet, we have to give up. Something means stop  

eating. Stop drinking something. I'll give  up alcohol for the month before Christmas.  

I’ll give up eating sweets  for the period before Easter.

long time. And when it comes to your  turn, you turn to her and say you can

my early years in that particular country.  And then I moved to this country for work  

or university or whatever. It  might have been okay to grow up.

Hang on. Okay, now hang on is an expression we  

use and a phrasal verb when we want  somebody to wait for a little bit.

dinner. Something quick and easy. Some snack  that we can put together. Okay to look for.

is to make up quickly. Yeah. They often say  if you have an argument with your partner,  

husband or wife makeup before you go to  sleep, don't go to sleep on an argument.

So to make up means to apologise. If you're in  

the wrong, accept an apology  if it's offered and make up.

the second meaning of makeup is about making up  stories or making up excuses or making up lies.  

So kids are great at this. If they don't  do the homework for the school teacher,  

they make up a little story or they make  up a little lie. The dog ate the copy book,  

or mom didn't allow you do the  homework because it was too late.

Whatever the excuses, they make  up a story. They make up a lie.

Okay, number 40. To pay back. Well, unfortunately,  when we borrow money, we have to pay back the  

money with interest, particularly if we borrow  from the bank. If you like, my young son, who used  

to borrow money from me, not only did I not get  interest, I didn't even get the money paid back.

And so to pay back means to return  whatever you borrowed to somebody else,  

usually with interest. So each  month when you pay your mortgage,  

you pay back a capital amount and  some interest to the bank to pay back.

Pick up. Well, earlier on we used drop off. So  here is pick up when they return from wherever  

they have visited you promised to pick them up at  the airport to pick them up at the train station.

postponing. Can we put off the meeting  until next week? I don't feel so well or  

I'm very busy and I don't have time to fit the  meeting in. So let's put it off for a few days.

Okay? So to put off means to  postpone or delay. They have  

put off the wedding because of Covid.  So many, many couples during the Covid

pandemic, they put off their wedding plans  because they simply couldn't invite the guests  

to the wedding. So they put off the wedding. So  to postpone for a short or longer period of time,

a rush. And we've been working  all week. So when we get home,  

we put together whatever's in the fridge and  try to make a reasonable dinner for everybody.

It’ll be tasty. But it won't  be anything special just to put  

something together quickly. Okay. If we  take something apart, like a car engine,  

we put it together. If we take some furniture  apart, we put it together. We mean we assemble

bad moods of our children from time  to time when they they don't really  

know what's going on. They can't  express themselves. But we we,  

the parents have to put up with the bad moods.  Do I have to put up with this all the time?

Put up with the incessant rain here in  Ireland? When you live here for so long,  

you just eventually put up with it. You accept it.

Run out, run out means we have nothing left.  We run out of coffee. We run out of rice. We  

run out of water. Hopefully you don't run out  of petrol when you're driving on the motorway,  

but if you do, it means you  have nothing left in the tank.

Or you have to phone somebody to come and  collect you because I've run out of petrol.

Oh, is that the time we've run out of time? We'll  

have to carry forward these items  to the next meeting to run out.

Take off. Well, when we go on a holiday,  

the plane would take off. The plane would  take off in ten minutes and everybody's.

Yay! We're on our way for a holiday.

We get home after a wet, windy night and  we take off our clothes and we jump in the  

shower and we warm us up. We take off our  clothes and put on a pajamas before we go  

to bed. To take off means to remove.

To turn up. How many people turned up to the  party? Okay. 20 people turned up to the party,  

meaning 20 people arrived. I only  invited five. But somehow 20 people  

turned up to the party. They arrived  at the party. Something can turn up  

by accident. I was looking for this book  last week and I couldn't find it today.

I opened the drawer. It just turned up. I don't  know why I didn't look there the first time. So  

something turns up and it comes unexpectedly.  You pick up the mobile phone and you ring your  

friend. Look, I'm not going to be able to  meet you guys tonight. Something has turned  

up unexpectedly. Some problem has arisen in the  office, and you have to work a little bit late.

So something turned up unexpectedly.

Wait up. Well, we can wait up for a husband  or partner to arrive back. You know,  

they've been traveling for a few days and we  haven't seen them. So you send them a text,  

say, now, send me a message when the plane  arrives, and I'll wait up for you and we can  

have a chat. Okay. So to wait up for somebody  means not to go to bed before they get there.

Or they might say, look, I'm going to be  a bit later than I thought. Don't wait  

up for me. I'll be fine. I'll tiptoe away and  hopefully you'll be asleep. I won't wake you,  

so don't wait up for me. Or we might just  use it as a sort of an indication. Wait up,  

wait up. I'll be with you in a moment.

So you're trying to indicate to somebody  not to run off. Not to walk too fast.  

Wait up. Meaning? Give me time. I'll  be there with you in a quick moment.

And now, finally, we got to the  end. Yes. Number 50. I told you  

it needed a bit of energy. So were there  the last one? Number 50. Watch out!

So watch out. Can be used as

danger sign. Watch out! Something's going  to fall. Okay, so you have to be very,  

very careful. Or watch out for  that new movie. It should be on  

the cinemas in the next couple of  weeks. It's really, really good.

Meaning keep your eyes open  because when you see it,  

it's going to be really, really  good. Or if I go to visit this new

office block, what am I supposed to be  watching out for? What? What should be,

brought to my attention? What should  I think about? Or what should I look  

for in particular? So to watch out, in this  case, we can say watch out as a danger sign.

Watch out. Meaning, keep your  eyes open for something or watch  

out to to make sure you don't miss something.

Okay, so that's a long, long, long, long  video. Hopefully you stayed with me.  

Hopefully you enjoyed it. And hopefully  you got to understand a lot of very,  

very simple phrasal verbs. Okay. We use  them every day. As I said, they used by  

native British English speakers all the time. And  they used instead of more formal verbs. So what I  

would like you to do is to listen to it, or you  can cut it up and break it into a few pieces.

But try and practice those. Try and use them  both in your spoken English and your written  

English if you need any help with them. Any  more examples? Please ask and I'll be really  

happy to hear from you and help you. And you  can contact me at englishlessonviaskype.com

Thanks in particular for watching this  very long video. I hope you enjoyed it.

I enjoyed making it for you  and I'll join you again soon.
