-"Let me see your
identification." -"You don't need to see
his identification." -"We don't need to see
his identification." -"These aren't the droids
you're looking for." -"These aren't the droids
we're looking for." -"He can go about his business." -"You can go about
your business." -"Move along." -"Move along." Yeah. Hey, everyone. I'm Alex. Thanks for clicking and welcome to this
lesson on "30 Phrasal Verb Commands". So, simple enough. Right? You're going to hear 30 commands that use
phrasal verbs, and I will tell you the context in which you can use each one, and we'll do some
very quick pronunciation and repeat-after-me practice as well. Now, after this lesson, if you can't get enough
of phrasal verb commands, you can check out the resource that Rebecca made where
she lists 100 phrasal verb commands. And she also has another video that is linked
to this video where you can get, you know, a lesson on 10 more commands, similar
to these ones right behind me. So, let's not waste any more time and we're
going to go, one, two, three, four, five, six, all the way to 30 and we'll do it relatively
quickly with an example and an explanation of the context for each. So, the first one, repeat
after me: "Back off." This is what you say when you want someone to,
you know, get out of your personal space. So, usually if you are annoyed at the
individual, you could say: "Back off. You are too close to me." Okay? Next: "Back up." Now, "back up" is similar to "back off", but
it can be used in a more formal situation by someone, like, you know, a
police officer or a security guard. So, for example, if there is, you know, a
line where another line is formed and you cannot cross this line, and you do cross that
line, you know, a police officer or a security guard or someone might
ask you to: "Back up. Back up." This means: Go back a little
bit, take a few steps back. They probably won't
say: "Back off". "Back off" is much stronger, so you can use:
"Back up" in a more formal situation where you want the person to move out of the
way and to move back a little bit. Okay? So: "Back up. Just move back, everybody." Okay? Next: "Carry on." So, repeat after me: "Carry on." This simply means continue, do
what you were doing before. So: "Carry on. Carry on." Next, repeat after
me: "Chill out." This just means:
"Be calm, relax. Okay? I see you're upset. Chill out." Okay? So: "chill" comes from, like, you
know, to cool, to be calmer. Don't get so hot. Be calm, be cool, chill out. Next, repeat: "Come back." This simply means return. Okay? So: "Hey. Come back. Come back. Return." Next: "Come on." So, this can mean
to come, follow me. "Come on. Let's go." Or, if you don't, you know, believe a person's
story or you want to show surprise, you can say: "Come on. Really? Come on." Okay, next: "Come in." So, if you have invited someone to your house,
you open the door and you want to, you know, invite them to enter your
house, you can say: "Come in." All right? So repeat it: "Come in." Next: "Come over." So, if you are inviting a person to your house,
you're talking to them on the phone and you want them to come to where you are, usually
it's your house, but it could be another place like your work or a caf� somewhere, but
usually it's, you know, their house, you can say: "Hey. Come over. I'm free now." Or: "Come over in ten minutes." Okay? So this means: Come
to where I am. Usually it's the person's house. "Yeah, you can come over. Come over." Give a command. Next: "Dream on. Dream on. Dream..." You know, the Aerosmith
song from the 70s or... I think it was the 70s. And, "to dream on" basically means you don't
believe what this person is saying or they have this big, big impossible dream in their
head or something, like: -"Oh, I'm going to play this lottery ticket and I'm going
to win the lottery this weekend. That's my plan for the weekend." -"Dream on." Okay? So, this means: "Keep
dreaming, continue to dream. I don't believe you." All right? Next: "Drink up." So, repeat: "Drink up." You can say this if you are around a table
with some friends, everyone has a glass in their hand of their beverage of choice,
alcoholic, non-alcoholic, it's up to you. And if you want everybody to
drink, yes, you can say: "Cheers." You can also say: "Drink up". "Drink up" simply means drink. Okay? So, drink. "Drink up." "Gather around." Now, when I think of this I think of, you
know, a person wanting people to get around them because they have some important
news or they want to tell a story. So, if it's an old man with a beard and there's
lots of children around: "Gather around, children. Gather around." Okay? So, gather, collect
yourselves around me. You want people to come to you. Say: "Gather around. Gather around. Come here." Okay? Next, repeat: "Get back." Similar to: "Back up". "Get back" also means
to take a step back. That's basically it. You can use it in a standard situation, a
formal situation, you know, if someone is near a fire, like:
"Look, there's a fire. Get back. Get back. Get back." Okay? Next, repeat: "Get in." The most common context that I think of automatically
when I think of: "Get in" is someone is inside a car, and they're
telling you: "Hey. Get in. I can give you a dri-..." A drive? "...a ride. I can give you a
ride somewhere." So you can ask someone to get
in, like inside your car. It doesn't have to just be a car, but this
is the most common context where you want someone to enter your vehicle
or to enter your place. So: "Get in." Similar to: "Come in", but "Come in" is,
you know, usually related to the house. Next: "Get off." Okay? So, if someone is, I don't know, laying on
top of you, maybe, you could just say: "Get off. Get off." Or if someone is giving you a hug and you're
not comfortable with hugs, like: "Get off me." You can say: "Get off." Okay? Also if you are online somewhere and, you know,
you're on a website and, you know, somebody comes behind you and they want you to eat
dinner, like it's your mom or your dad, they might say: "Okay, get
off the computer." So: "Okay, get off." Or: "Log off. Get off the computer." Stop doing what you're doing. Next: "Get up". "Get up", similar
to: "Stand up." This just means elevate yourself from a sitting
position or from a lying down position. And it could be, you know, your roommate, or
maybe your mom or your dad, or your sister, or someone who wakes you up
and says: "Okay, get up. Get up. It's morning. It's time to go. Get up." Okay? All right, next: "Go away." I think you're very
familiar with this one. It's in movies, it's in TV shows, it's
everywhere, it means leave me alone. So, repeat it after
me: "Go away." All right. Next: "Go back." Okay, so: "To go back", similar to "Get back",
basically means to return where you came from or make some room. Okay? Give me more room. Okay? "Go back. Go back. Go back." Or if you're recording someone and, you know,
you want them to go back: "Okay, go back. Go back. Okay, perfect. Yes. Beautiful." All right? Next, please repeat: "Grow up". "Grow up", if you give this command to someone,
it means that they are acting very immature and you want them to act their age,
to act more mature, say: "Grow up." Or if someone has a belief or something that
you think is childish, like they have the beliefs of a child,
it's like: "Come on. You really believe that? Grow up." Okay? Next: "Hang on." Repeat it: "Hang on". "Hang on" means:
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop. Stop what... Stop what you're saying." Or it can mean to wait. So you can say: "Hang
on, hang on, hang on." Or if you're talking on the phone to someone
and you want them to hold, to wait, say: "Hang on." Okay? "Please hold" or
"Please hang on." Or just wait: "Wait. Hang on." Okay. Next: "Hang up." So this is used in the context
of phone conversations. So, if you're talking to your boyfriend
or girlfriend: -"You hang up." -"No, you hang up." -"No, you hang up." You know, that kind of stuff? You can just say:
"Okay, hang up. Hang up." If you watch cop shows, TV shows where, you know,
the police are tracing a telephone number, and if they talk to the person for 30 seconds
they will magically know where they are, you know, they might say: "Okay..." The criminal might
say: "Hang up. Hang up. Hang up." Or the officer might
say: "Hang up. Hang up" if they don't want the
criminal to know where they are. Next up: "Lie down." So, if you have a friend and maybe they were
out in the sun all day and they feel weak or they look sick, and you want them to rest,
lie down on the couch, you can say: "Hey, just lie down. All right? Lie down here. Rest here." Next: "Listen up." I love this one. Now, this is what you hear also in television
crime dramas, or in any kind of, like, epic movie where there's
a, you know... An important scene where one character, usually
the leader needs everyone to hear what they have to say. They'll usually enter the office, usually
with their hands on their hips like this, say: "All right,
everybody, listen up. Listen to me." Okay? So: "Listen up" just
means: "Listen to me. Listen. Pay attention" with your ears,
the holes in your ears. Yeah. Next: "Move along." Now, "Move along", like you saw me doing at
the beginning of this video means continue, continue in the direction
you were going. So, this is for
physical movement. If you didn't know, the scene I was re-enacting
with Steve and that new bunny character thing was from Star Wars, so, you know,
Obi-Wan says: "Move along." And then the stormtrooper
says: "Move along. Move along." Okay? Just mind control, so just like
weird Jedi powers and stuff. Next: "Move over." Very strong. It can be very strong. If you want someone to make room for you,
usually to sit down, you can tell them to: "Move over" to
make room for you. "Move over. I... I need to sit here, too." Okay? You can use this on
the bus, I guess. If you want to be polite, you could
say: "Oh, could you move over, please?" Or if you're trying to walk and someone is
blocking your way, say: "Oh, excuse me? Could you move over a bit? Could you move over, please?" Okay? Next: "Shut up." Now, this one I think
you guys know. Also it's in every
TV show, movie. It's rude. It's telling a
person to be quiet. If you want to say something, you know, just
as strong, you could say: "Shut your mouth", which is very strong. Or just: "Shut up"
means: "Stop talking. I don't want to hear
what you have to say." All right? Next... I always erase stuff
with my elbow. So: "Sit down." Just another way to say: "Sit." So, I just realized you guys didn't listen
and repeat these words with me, so before we get to: "Sit down", repeat: "Lie down",
"Listen up", "Move along"-extra points if you did the Alec Guinness
accent-"Move over", "Shut up". I don't like saying that, right? "Sit down." So: "Sit down" is
just: "Please sit." Okay? Next, very useful if you, you know, have a
friend who has a low voice and they speak very quietly, and it's very difficult to hear
them, you want them to speak louder, you can say: "Speak up. Speak up. I can't hear you." So, turn the volume
up on your voice. Okay? So: "to speak up" means
to speak louder. I can't hear you. Okay? So: "Speak up." "Stand up." So, we have: "Sit down",
opposite of: "Sit down" is...? Yeah: "Stand up." That's all. Just another way
to say: "Stand." "Wake up", hey. "Wake up", this goes
with: "Get up". Right? If you don't know the difference with: "Wake
up" and "Get up" - "Wake up" is when you open your eyes in the morning, "Get
up" is when you leave your bed. Okay? When you actually stand
and start your day. So, you know, you can tell
your friend: "Wake up. Wake up. Wake up." Okay? And finally: "Quiet down." This is kind of the
opposite of: "Speak up." If you want people to speak quieter or if you
want a whole group who are speaking very loudly to be quieter, you could
say: "Okay, quiet down, everybody. Quiet down." Okay. All right. So, we've got 30 of these. And I know we've done some, like, random repeat-after-me
pronunciation, but before we leave, reviewing, recalling, redoing the same
thing helps it to stick. So, let's do it one
more time, faster. Okay? So, repeat after me, just focus
on getting it fluent and perfect. "Back off", "Back up", "Carry on", "Chill out",
"Come back", "Come on", "Come in", "Come over", "Dream on". Did you do it? It's weird, right? But so good. "Drink up", "Gather around, children", "Get
back", "Get in", "Get off", "Get up", "Go away", "Go back", "Grow
up", "Hang on", "Hang up". Here? Here? Here. "Lie down", "Listen up", "Move along", "Move
over", "Shut up", "Sit down", "Speak up", "Stand up", "Wake
up", "Quiet down". Okay, so if you want to test your understanding
