Hi there! I'm Drew Badger, the world's
number one English Fluency Guide and in
this video we're going to be helping you
sound more native, natural and
conversational by just adding one simple
word to your verbs. Now this is a phrasal
verb lesson will be covering phrasal
verbs in in this video and a phrasal
verb if you're not familiar already this
is a great phrase anyway if you're not
familiar with something so if you don't
know about something already a phrasal
verb is when we take a complicated word
like dismount which you might not know
to dismount but it just means to get off
of something else
so if you're riding a horse and you
leave that horse you get off of that
horse you were dismounting that thing so
instead of taking a more complex
complicated word like this mount we can
use a few simple words like get and off
and make a phrasal verb so we can
express the same thing but in a more
casual conversation away now often
phrasal verbs something like get off has
a specific meaning by itself so to get
off of something again is to leave
something or I'm trying to get something
off of me like there's a fly on my head
I want to get it off of me but in this
video we're going to talk about verbs
whose meanings or verbs with meetings
that don't change even when we add this
one word up
so a lot of people maybe they hear some
phrasal verbs like clean up or fix up
and they're wondering why doing you know
net wider native speakers use these when
really there's no change in meaning now
just like any other thing people are
people and we kind of have almost like a
club when we're speaking to each other
so to join the club of native English
speakers you have to use the language
native speakers use and often we want to
make our language sound a bit more
friendly so we'll add a word like up two
verbs even though it doesn't really
change the meaning but the kind of
general meaning of that thing changes
just to make it a little bit more fun so
in this video let's cover a few more of
those so you can make your
conversational language I guess make
your regular language sound a bit more
conversational the first one is clean so
you want to clean something and you can
just use the word clean by itself but
often native speakers will say clean up
so we're talking
about cleaning up your room now you can
think about this as maybe you've got
some dirt on the ground and you're
trying to pick that dirt off trying to
move it in an upward direction so that's
why we get clean up but really logically
there's no difference between cleaning
your room and cleaning up your room but
native speakers will use it like this
when you're speaking with people and you
have to say oh I have to clean up my
room or can you clean up the table or
something like that you're asking people
to clean something but it's a little bit
more kind of casual and natural to say
it that way it sounds a little bit more
direct like you're ordering someone if I
say clean your room that usually a
parent will say that when they're a bit
more angry so there you can see we're
just saying we're kind of commanding
someone or ordering someone hate
cleaning your room but if I'm being a
bit more polite where I'm just trying to
be a bit more friendly I'm talking to my
daughter is a clean up clean up your
toys now listen to how this blends
clearly nup cleanup so we're not saying
clean up these are like the last end
from clean and the you from up they
blend together
clean up clean up your room clean up
your room so i used fixed up earlier and
to fix something up is really the same
thing as fixed now there is a specific
phrasal verb to fix something up which
means to make something but if I'm just
going to try to like fix my computer i
might say let me like fix up my computer
right quick so I'm just trying to repair
it in some way but adding the up doesn't
really change the meaning of the word
fix we're just trying to repair
something or maybe build something next
one we have a similar one is wipe so we
can wipe a table i can wipe a window or
I can wipe something up typically again
like clean we've got something maybe on
a flat surface on a table and we're
trying to remove that thing in an upward
direction so if I spill some milk or
some water or something on a table
I want to pick that thing up so I'm
going to wipe it up wipe it up if I just
wipe the table I'm maybe kind of moving
something around but to wipe up a little
bit more implies that we're trying to
pick something up from you know what
we're doing so usually if we spill
something as i explained a second ago
we're trying to remove something or take
something move
in upward direction to wipe something up
but still if I wipe the table or I wipe
up the table logically there's no real
difference to that these phrasal verbs
again they're very conversational and
natural but they don't really change the
meaning next one is cook now you can say
i will cook dinner or you can ask
someone hey can you cook some dinner but
again it's much more casual and friendly
if I say hey I'm going to cook up
something
hey I'm going to cook up something so
I'd like to cook up something for dinner
or I say hey like while I go to the
grocery store could you cook up
something for dinner next we've got to
eat up so after you've cooked something
and you want to eat it up
often parents will be sitting with their
kids at the dinner table and they say
heat up your food heat up your food or
after i ate up my food this is again a
little bit more of a casual and polite
thing maybe not too polite but your
again trying to be a bit softer with
your language when you're adding up
so this is why native speakers use this
especially when they're trying to be
friendly
so it's still kind of polite but at the
same time it's really just a casual and
friendly way of saying to do something
so if i say hey heat up your food eat up
your food again we've got this blended
sound e up eat up your food heat up your
food i can tell my child hate Aria can
you just eat your food eat your food if
I may be a little bit angry or something
like she is playing with their food and
not just dating and already eat your
food eat your food but if I'm in a
happier mood and i am sitting down with
her aria heat up your food heat up your
food next to start something to start
something if I want to maybe start up
the car so here I am instead of starting
a car which I can use in the verb is
correct i can start up a car as well so
i put in the key i turn the ignition or
in maybe some modern cars you push a
button to start the car so you can start
up the car again it's that same thing
but it's sounding a bit more
conversational and natural next is to
close up close up now if i want to close
up something maybe I'm closing a box or
even i'm closing my store if I have a
regular store maybe I have a donut shop
in my local neighborhood and at the end
of the
hey I have to close up shop so I'm just
closing the store maybe I have like a
door that I lock in some other window
shades or something that I pull down but
this is called closing up so you can
close at the end of the day or you can
close up close up next you can pay up
pay up
I can just pay someone if I owe the
money let's say friend of mine and I
were making a bet on who would win a
basketball game and I say hey if they
win like you will owe me some money and
I 1 and I say hey man pay up pay up
so again in this way I don't want to say
like hey man pay me like it's kind of a
friendly friendly bet I'm not angry with
that person i'm the same and pay up pay
up and the last one will cover is to mix
up another cooking way of explaining
that we're mixing something but often
work again taking something when you
when you mix it you add air into that
object like if I have some whipping
cream if you have a bowl maybe have a
little bit of whipping cream at the
bottom but if you whip it you actually
increase the volume of that thing so
we're whipping something up or mixing
something up now it doesn't matter again
if you say hey can you mix the whipping
cream or if I say can you mix up or can
you whip up again the same same idea of
taking something and slightly increasing
the volume of that so you're moving it
up mixing it up or whipping that thing
up now all of these things again it's
just I want to repeat this it's really
important to repeat this but when you're
thinking about a verb you might say if
you try adding up to that or you're
listening for what native speakers are
using listen for if it's a regular verb
and they're just adding up if it changes
the meaning of that and if you can't
really tell the difference
it's probably just because it's being
used in a casual conversation away but
the ones that i introduced today are
some of the most common that you will
hear most frequently so do Prague to
prepare for these and conversations go
back and watch this video again and you
will be paying attention to them
