what you've learned in these videos

The first phrasal verb is "Get up"

So it's the morning you're in bed

and this happens

what's the phrasal verb to go from asleep to awake?

"Wake up" in a present tense: "Every day I wake up at 8 o'clock"

In a past tense: "Yesterday I woke up at 1 in the afternoon

Sorry, it happens!

Wake up is just opening your eyes in the morning

but "get up" is physically removing yourself from your bed

It's that moment where you say "Ok no more sleep!"

It's different from "wake up"

So a question for you! Tell me in the comments!

What's the time difference between when you wake up and when you get up?

For example, for me, when I wake up in the morning

I'm on Instagram and Twitter for 20 minutes before I get up!

You meet your friend and your friend says:

"Come to the cinema with us tonight! It'll be fun!"

but unfortunately you have an obligation

"I have to work"

That sucks so your friend wants you to escape your obligation, escape your responsibility

Not do what you are supposed to do. There's a phrasal verb for that!

"Ah no! Can you get out of it?"

"To get out of something" it means to escape or avoid your responsibility, your duty, your obligation

For example if he calls his boss and says

"Hey is there any chance I can you know not work tonight?"

and the coolest boss ever says

"Yeah it's fine! Go have fun!"

Then he would say

"I got out of it! I got out of working"

notice the verb you have +ING "I got out of..."

If the thing is a verb, put +ING

"I Got out of workING" For example

Another way to escape is from work from school from some situation in general!

For that kind of escape we use this phrasal verb...

For example if your friend says:

"Hey! Let's go on holiday! It'll be fun!"

But for you, you have an obligation to go to work every day!

and you're very busy, and you won't have free time until summer

To say escape from a situation - usually work or school - but any situation you want to escape from

We say "Get away"

Ah I'd love to but I can't get away from work until summer!

If you are working very hard right now maybe for university school, for your job

When can you get away? Let me know in the comments!

If you are one of those people who has a list of things to do

but it takes you a very long time to do them

then you need this phrasal verb

for example you have something that you need to do

this thing, you need to do it but you haven't done it yet

We use this phrasal verb

"To get around to" and the verb is in the ING form

For example in my case let me show you

This is my bed and...

so that has been happening for about a year

It is on my to-do list but I haven't fixed it yet!

I should say: "I haven't got around to fixing my bed yet"

I will do it just I haven't done it It's still on my list

I'm not lazy I just I don't know how to fix a bed

Maybe there's a YouTube tutorial

but let me know in your life is there anything that you haven't got round to doing yet?

Or is there anything that you recently got round to doing? Something you finally did?

when you go to the doctor and you need to have an injection...

yeah I hate this I hate it so much I can't look at the injection

it makes me sick I want to faint

I hate it I'm like this

and in this case you might be thinking or saying...

"Just get it over with! Just get it over with!"

What does that mean?

You're saying it's terrible I know but just do it!

If you just do it, it's finished!

That's the meaning of that expression "Just get it over with!"

Let me know in the comments Are you like me? Are you like this? Terrible!

This next phrasal verb is about schedules and arrivals

She is asking her friend "What time do you arrive?

Specifically "What time does your plane, or train, or bus, some scheduled transport arrive?"

and when you're talking about the arrival time, you can talk about the person's arrival time

Or the transport's arrival time "My flight gets in at 5:00 a.m."

Also you can use it to talk about what time you get home.

For example

I went out last night I had a crazy night and I got in at 3 a.m.

I didn't. That's a lie. I'm not that exciting. I'm actually a very boring person

And the last phrasal verb is about your emotions

Specifically someone doing or saying something that changes your emotion in a bad way

It makes you angry makes you upset makes you annoyed

for this situation we use the phrasal verb "Get to me" "Get to you"

Let me show you an example

If someone says something bad to you like

"You're stupid!"

Those words might make you feel angry or sad or annoyed

and if that happens that means "The words get to you"

They change your emotion to being sad, angry, annoyed, upset

It means they change your emotion in a bad way

so maybe your friend wants to tell you

"Don't let him get to you! He's an idiot!"

You should know that usually with this phrasal verb we use the word "Let"

Because the idea is we allow these words to change our emotion in a negative way

If we "allow" it to happen we "let" it happen

For that reason she would say

"Don't let him get to you!" or "Don't let it get to you"

"Don't let it get to you!"
