okay i think it's rolling hi everybody and welcome back to our weekly live stream my name is alicia and in this week's lesson we are going to talk about phrasal verbs used to describe movement i've chosen about 20 about 20 phrasal verbs that we use to talk about the movements of our bodies and to talk about the movements of vehicles like cars buses and so on so we're going to talk about uh prepositions that you use commonly with verbs together and we're going to talk about whether you can split them whether they're separable or inseparable and talk about some example sentences too so i hope everyone can find something in this lesson and maybe ask some questions too because in this lesson i have included some phrasal verbs that have different meanings so different meanings meaning

going to talk about uh over and off so maybe you can see i separated today's topics by preposition so over and off up and down in and out so i made some groups of phrasal verbs we're going to talk about them by group and again as i said of course there are other phrasal verbs that use these prepositions uh but i've chosen some focusing on movement and focusing on maybe uh some phrasal verbs you might not know so as we begin don't forget to hit the like button and share this video yeah it helps other people find today's lesson so oh i'm going to share the video there it goes bye okay i've shared it it's all right i'm ready to start i have shared the video let's begin with this lesson uh i want to start actually i want to start with in and out i think i had the border swapped but i want to start uh with these two today these two groups so let's begin let's be good first group i want to talk about is phrasal verbs that use in that use in so for today's lesson i separated i separated them into groups like this so we'll look at a few examples of phrasal verbs in this group and an example sentence too so you can send your own example sentence in the chat if you're watching live i will try to check but there are many comments so please uh please keep that in mind okay let's go oh okay facebook are you okay over there good okay let's get started so first one in the first phrasal verb is get in get in we use get in to enter to mean to enter a vehicle so vehicle means something that you use to move from place to place a car a bus a truck get in it's like saying get inside or please enter the car enter the bus we don't really say enter the bus in conversation it sounds a little strange so we would say for example hurry get in the car get in the car please note when we want to talk about a train we typically say get on the train get on the train same thing for an airplane get on the plane i need to get on the plane we typically use in for smaller uh vehicles like cars buses trucks get in means to enter something okay next go in go in go in also means to enter to enter but we use go in for a building a building so like a supermarket i'm going to go in to the supermarket okay or i went in in past tense go becomes went i went in to the bank i went into the bank so to go in means to enter we often use this as a command like hurry up go in if you're sitting outside for a long time go in okay okay uh other other others i'm looking for your questions as well okay uh baga hey frank said get inside the office note get in is used for vehicles cars things like that for a place use go in so go in the office or go inside the office is also okay all right other points okay everything looks good so far next is come in come in so the difference between come in and go in is your position or the speaker's position so come in refers to someone outside the building you are inside entering so if i'm in the building here and black marker is outside the building and black marker comes in the building i i just said it now come in to come in from my perspective that person comes toward me comes to me i don't say uh black marker went in the building like their movement their movement is toward me in my direction i use come in to describe that so it sounds much more natural to say black marker came in the building so it doesn't sound as natural to say black marker went in the building that sounds like the other direction from me another one you will hear this in invitations a lot if you go to someone's house they might say come in come in it's cold outside or maybe come in come in have some tea or come in have a drink have something to eat so we use this as a friendly command to come in come in okay good all right uh charles pell asked on youtube go into school yeah you can use go into school like i need to go into school today it's saturday but i have something to do okay um all right some people are still using get or past tense got i see mr goofy on youtube get in again get in is used for vehicles so don't say i got into a store use i went into a store go in is for building get in for vehicles so maybe this is a good point for many people today okay let's go to the next one back in back in this is a car or a vehicle uh related phrasal verb to back in like if you are driving a car or a truck or van or something to back in means to move into a parking space with the rear of the car first the rear of the car first so if we imagine this pencil or this marker as a car this part is the front this part this is the back usually we drive the car this way right but when we want to talk about backing in or to back in the rear of the car goes first we back in for example to a parking spot so we're ready to go when we're when we want to leave so to back in means to move into usually usually into a parking spot with the rear part first for example hey can you back into this spot can you back into this spot okay all right uh why all the time for figure only i'm not sure what that question means mcd can you maybe give me an example oh it's gone okay all right okay okay so this is the first group using in uh with verbs to talk about movement all right i don't see other questions so let's go to out out i have just a few examples without i thought it would be good to talk about so first get out get out we talked about this one get in right to enter a vehicle to enter a car get out however we can use to mean to leave a vehicle like get out of the car or get out of the van that's good too this has the feeling of leaving a place quickly as well so we can use this as the opposite of get in yes i need to like please get out of the car that kind of thing but this can also have the feeling of leaving a place quickly for example this party is boring let's get out of here this party is boring let's get out of here so oftentimes often in speech get out of sounds like get outta get outta you've probably heard this if you've watched uh american english tv shows let's get out of here or get out of here that's what it sounds like so this means let's leave quickly this is boring or this is dangerous maybe you might hear this in action films too okay good uh bye nick is it okay to say get out of my life yeah that is 100 correct very aggressive if you have a big fight with someone and you don't want to see them again you could say get out of my life i don't know if i've ever said that that sounds very aggressive okay all right let's go to the next one the next one here is come out to come out to come out means to reveal something so if you've been hiding for a long time and you reveal yourself you can use come out to talk about that you use this a lot when you are playing games as a kid maybe you know the game hide and seek where you and your friends or your like your brother or your sister you hide and the other person has to find you so you can use this to describe that for example my brother kid hid that's the past tense of hide my brother hid in a cabinet for an hour he came out to eat dinner he came out to eat dinner so he revealed himself from his hiding position to eat dinner so come out to come out means to reveal something okay good looking for your questions uh julio cesar says get in versus get into yeah good question about this like can i say like get into the car you can but in cases where there's not a like not a difference between the meaning so like for example get in the car versus get into the car i feel we tend to use the shorter version just to be a little bit more efficient it's just shorter so it's easier to say it's one less sound to make so that's a case where you can you can use either there may be some situations where it's more natural to use one or the other yeah um okay others what is the meaning of hit i said really quickly it means hide in past tense to hide becomes to hid sorry to hide becomes hid hide becomes hit okay good let's go to the next one to go out to go out to go out means to leave your home to leave your home for example i'm going out with some friends tonight so that means i'm leaving the house i'm i am going to go to some place with my friends so this is a very uh open expression where am i going i don't know or maybe i don't want to say i'm going out for example i was watching a tv show this week and one character it was a husband and wife one the wife she was planning to leave the house and the husband said where are you going and she said out so she wanted to be secretive about it where are you going oh so go out just means to leave your home to leave your home you can say you can use it to talk about work or school like before you go out to school or before you go out to work you can include the place but you don't have to you don't have to okay other points i'm going out for dinner they're going out for dinner lots of people are going out for dinner and the comments good okay very nice very nice i'm going out for a few drinks very nice uh a laratam run in and walk in both mean to enter a building um yes you could say for example run into the supermarket and get some milk or walk into the supermarket and get some milk we use run in when we want to emphasize doing something quickly so in that case if i said ah sorry i need to run into the supermarket and get some milk it's like saying please wait just one minute i'm going really fast so it means like please be patient okay all right good that's part one for today whoa that took 20 minutes oh my gosh i have to hurry for the next parts whoa that was so much okay let's take a really really really quick break and then we'll go very efficiently through the rest of today's topics okay if you missed it before there is

say please like please like and share this video so other people can find today's lesson please please please make sure to do that it helps other people to join okay let's go to up and down up and down okay let's go quickly so uh the next group i want to talk about up and down next so let's go quickly i will try to speak uh smoothly but not fast but let's go efficiently through these so first one is get up get up to move your body from bed for example it's 2 pm you need to get up it's 2 pm you need to get up you might think what's the difference between get up and wake up to wake up means to open your eyes so in bed you open your eyes you don't have to get up immediately you don't have to get up and wake up at the same time i think most people most people usually wake up and after that they get up right like usually i don't know about you usually we don't wake up and get up at exactly the same time that sounds interesting so get up means to move your body from bed to move your body from bed it's 2pm you need to get up please get up please get out of bed is another way to say that next is sit up sit up to sit up means to move from a relaxed sitting position to a position with the back straight what does that mean so maybe you've heard your parents say this you're sitting at your computer kind of like this slouched right this position is called a slouch your parents might say hey alicia sit up your posture is bad that means to sit with good posture your back is straight so we use sit up to refer to that sit up for example you slouch a lot you should sit up you slouch a lot you should sit up so to sit up means uh to move to a sitting position with a straight back do you have lists of phrasal verbs here is one um i think let's see i've made some videos in the past on the youtube channel about other groups of phrasal verbs so i recommend to check for those i'm not sure how many are available yet you can do a youtube search for phrasal verb on the youtube channel to find my videos about that i hope that helps you how do you spell slouch it's right here s l o u c h slouch slouch javier says i've also heard sit back yes you can use sit back if someone is really excited like looking like right at the camera in my case you might you might say please sit back like we can't see you or please sit back and calm down so that's what sit back means to move in a backwards motion okay onward let's go to the next one um pick up pick up this one has two meanings i want to talk about pick up means to clean like to pick up your room to pick up things in your room and put them away so to clean is one use and we use it to mean to collect someone or to collect something so two example sentences please pick up your room it's a mess please pick up your room means please clean up your room as well so if it's helpful you can imagine your room is messy you should pick up the things on the floor and put them in the correct place so this is maybe helpful okay and this one to collect someone or to collect something means for example or for example he has to pick up his boss at the airport he has to pick up his boss at the airport that means he has to go to the airport and collect or pick up his boss okay so pick up babna pick up means choose no pic means choose to pick this is actually a very common uh error i hear some uh learners say please pick the phone nope completely wrong nope cannot say pick the phone please pick up the phone pick up the phone pic means choose yes so please pick me or pick one of these please pick up and pick are different uh mr goofy says after i got up i picked up around my desk and sat down in my chair then sat up my back this morning sat up we don't say sat up my back so when you want to describe like what i talked about sit up we don't have a direct object with this verb we don't say sit up my back or sit up my body part there's no direct object here so i sat down in my chair and i sat up straight right so i used sit down and sit up together there so that means i sat down in my chair and i sat up straight that's how you could describe uh those two actions together okay egg box incubators how do we begin using these phrases i chose these phrases because they are easy to use in your everyday life so think about them or talk to yourself in everyday life you can use all of these probably maybe today so practice them to talk about your movements and your actions uh okay onward we have to go next one i have a group here called up to there's one mini group up two this is a question i got from a viewer uh on the ask alicia series uh somewhat recently up to we can use up to with any of these like um movement motion verbs like walk run drive or jog we use up to with these to mean to do that action until you reach a point for example he walked up to the front of the room he walked up to the front of the room you can say he walked to the front of the room that's also fine walked up to gives the feeling of some like finish point that walk doesn't have another example we drove up to the forest we drove up to the forest like we did this action until we reached this point the forest that's the very small difference in feeling but this is extremely common we use this a lot it's very very common okay onward let's go to down now down so down notice i have marked these with stars that means that you can split or separate these i'll explain what this means in just a second first one with down is take down to take down something there are a couple meanings for today this means to remove to remove for example you should take down your holiday decorations it's may you should take down your holiday decoration you should remove your holiday decoration or you should take down that sign it's really old so to take down means to remove something we often use it for decorations or announcements that kind of thing to take down so what does this split mean it means we can put our object between the verb and the preposition that means you can say you should take your holiday decorations down that is also okay so some phrasal verbs it's okay to split in this way some we cannot all right phew let's go to the next one write down to write down to write down means to write on paper to write on paper usually like a quick note or a quick idea for example i have a great idea okay write this down write this down so you can it's more natural to say write this down then write please write this like you can say it i guess but we usually use write this down write this down okie uh leo what does it mean take him down so to take someone down means like to defeat someone so like in sports or in like a physical competition it means to defeat someone take him down means to to beat someone to to win uh often in a visit like a physical fight to take someone down it can also mean like in like a like a business setting to defeat someone like defeat a competitor to take someone down it sounds very aggressive but i hope that that helps all right let's go to the next one put down put down again this one has some other meanings but for today it means to place something you are holding on a surface so imagine you have a drink you're having your drink and your family member says put down your drink and help me move the sofa put down your drink and help me move the sofa i might be like oh okay i put it down on the table so put down that's the idea something i'm holding i hold i'm holding something here i put it down somewhere beneath where it was before put down okay again we can split this one put your drink down and help me move the sofa is also okay all right phew let's be done with part two we are already late and i have two more points to talk about ah let's go quickly okay we have some extra time today facebook are you okay okay i still see you okay good lost for a second let's go to part three super super quickly and then we'll be done for this week you have lots of phrasal verbs to practice at your house uh this week i hope it's helpful what's the you use when you're using headphones and they're comfortable to have them on comfortable it's fine i'm not sure you mean you're using headphones and they feel comfortable you could say comfortable maybe i'm missing something okay let's go to the last two points for today the last two points also if you haven't please make sure to hit the like button yeah it really helps other people find the video all right onward over over so a few for over so over meaning to the side this is a theme with these phrasal verbs first move over to move over means to move to the side like move over i have no space so to move over just means to move to the side to move over okay next is roll over roll over this means to roll to the side so to roll i can't show you a roll now but to roll is this motion yeah your body makes this motion like in bed at night for example his wife rolled over in her sleep his wife rolled over in her sleep and one more for a car so movement uh of a car or i guess a bicycle and so on is also okay pull over pull over means to move a car to the side of the road to move a car to the side of the road so you're driving driving driving and you have to pull over you have to move your car to the side of the road and stop for example oh no the police you should pull over so you should move your car from the road and stop to pull over to pull over okay pew let's go to the last part quickly so uh we have over move over roll over and pull over so you can use these to talk about moving to the side all right onward let's go to off off the last group there are only i think yeah there are only three here so we'll finish quickly first is knock off knock off this means to stop to stop doing something and it means to hit something and cause it to fall so for example kids say this expression a lot knock it off knock it off that means stop doing that stop doing that adults say this too sometimes but it's a very casual phrase it sounds a little bit childish knock it off you're being annoying okay and this one this means to hit something and cause it to fall i knocked a glass of water off the table i knocked a glass of water off the table so it's sitting on the table i bumped it fell from the table okay so you caused something to fall okay onward last two last two next one is work off this one is interesting this is a really interesting one to work off means to lose something through physical activity we usually use this to talk about uh like having a healthy diet so we use this a lot after we eat a lot of junk food for example i ate five donuts at lunch i'm going to go for a long run later and work them off work them off so them here means my five donuts my lunch donuts okay so i say i ate five donuts at lunch i'm gonna go for a long run and work as in like workout exercise work them off so that means i want to do physical exercise to remove those like to remove the calories to remove all of the junk from my body so we use work off to mean to lose something through physical activity you might hear this used to talk about stress too i need to work off some stress at the gym okay finally last point fall off to fall off this means to be moved from a high position from a shelf maybe so like this my marker is on the shelf and then i don't touch it that's the key here i don't touch it but it falls oh no that's how we that's the difference between fall off and knock off if something falls off the shelf i did not touch it knock off is used to mean i on accident moved it i touched it okay for example my book fell off the shelf my book fell off the shelf maybe in an earthquake for example okay phew okay that was a lot i had too many phrasal verbs
