- The best way to learn phrasal verbs in English is not about studying lists of categories or analysing prepositions or putting Post-it notes around your house! The best, and easiest, way to learn phrasal verbs is through context.
In this video, I explain how to study this tricky vocabulary area using examples of some C2 level phrasal verbs.
I hope you find the video useful!

These "chunks of knowledge" are the best completed keeping them simple, honest, carefully pathed, and friendly way of teaching that I remember in a long time. Thanks a lot!
I just love learning all the interesting curiosities of languages. I'm currently studying a career as a translator or interpreter and it's fascinating to dive into the beauty of the language and get to know different cultures ❤️
Well I totally agree with you about the context but especially in part 4 if you don't know the phrasal verb that is required you lose valuable points so it is also being able to memorize as many as you can. Also I wanted to ask if you know the origin of 'cotton on', I am really interested!
Ben I'm learning italian and my friend in italy is learning english, I've shared your video with him and told him how good it is !
Wooww . I finally started to comprehend it , thank you so much ,
The information is very valuable
Glad it was helpful!
Wow. I was expecting for this explanations about how to learn or in this case to guess the meaning of phrasal verb. Thanks a looooooot
Very enlightening! ☀
I've always wondered if it's necessary to use phrasal verbs in every conversation and this video clarifies everything! thank you Mr Ben you're awesome
Thanks God I found you!
Awesome as usual! Cheers
You are a hero!
Hats off to you, Sir!
Greetings from Brazil!
All your explanations are being really helpful to me. Thanks a lot, Ben.
Thanks, Ben!❤
Real teacher
Thanks for demystifying this subject a little bit. My students react the same way when I teach them the Subjunctive mood.
Excellent tips, thank you Ben. I teach English in Madrid and all my students have this dread of phrasal verbs. As you say, the context is crucial to understanding meaning, yet my adult students have often been pre-programmed to try and memorise lists. Unfortunately, in many schools that is the way it is often taught.
I do think that grouping some phrasal verbs according to topic is helpful too, but it only works if there are sufficient examples of contexts. Many phrasal verbs will have different meanings according to the context - just to add another layer of confusion to learners of the English language...
Nice
Just off the top of my head, the first meaning that "came up" to my mind was "pop up" for CROP UP (you gave us great examples, Ben!!
For DAWN ON', seeing the context, it's meaning is clear: "realise"
Easy peasy to see it like that!! 🍰
Awesome! Thanks for the video!
You're welcome! Glad you liked it 🙂
Hello Teacher Ben, thanks for explaining such a difficult topic in a simple way. It is fundamental to comprehend the difference between using phrasal verbs in everyday and real life English and studying them to get the message in communicative interactions. As you said, in the first situation we must know and know how to use the most common ones; on the other hand, when studying for a Cambridge exam, for instance, it is useful to know as many as you can and also to be aware of the context they appear. From now on I realise that it will be easier to deal with this part of my studies.😊
Hi Ben! 👍😁
Hello Ben, you are perfect teacher... to the point ! .Thank you so much for your videos. I have the confidence to move on and you make me even more easy to continue to succeed my goals .
Great... keep it up!
Wow! 😙 ❤️ I'm in love with your lessons of English, Ben. Thank you, they are so helpful and informative, great👍👍👍 I do appreciate your time and knowledge that you offer, I've never ever met a teacher of English with so many useful information and grammar which you give, wow!!!
Thanks again, Marina. It's good to know that you appreciate my videos 🙂
Thank you so much, Ben!
It suddenly dawns on me why is so important to learn phrasal verbs in context. Context is the clue indisputably.
Excellent, Gerardo! Context is the key! 🙂
Little Ben :)
Actually, when you gave the example with the phrasal verb “to crop up”, it made me think of another phrasal verb with a similar meaning: “to pop up”.
Thank you for sharing these thoughts.
Also came up! Something came up! (something unexpected)
Thanks, extremly useful!!!
Glad you found it useful! 🙂
Again, cool content, clearly explained! Now, thanks to you Ben, it dawned on me how to master elaborate english phrasal verbs. Next, with your help again, I could tackle so fascinating english idioms...
👍
Hi Ben, I discovered you because you cropped up on my TH-cam account and I'm absolutely glad about this coincidence. Ben, it dawned on me while watching this video that phrasal verbs are not as tedious as I thought. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
Great! 👏
Thanks forthevideo
This was impressive - congrats Ben.
Glad you liked it, Ivan! 🙂
Thanks Ben! 🙏
You're welcome, Isabel! 🙂
When I started to learn phrasal verbs, a question stuck in my head. How did the natives (kids) learn these difficult phrases, which you mentioned at the beginning of the video? From the first sentence, "crop up," everything became clear about how to learn phrasal verbs.
Perfectly
🙂
Gracias Ben :)
My pleasure 🙂
Very good channel🙂
Thanks! Glad you like it 🙂
10,000 !!! X.x It's going to give me a heart attack !
Amazing,why did you say those phrasal verbs but not these phrasal verbs?
So I'm not gonna use them? XD ok, that's a lot of time saved! Wuuuu!!!
Another example cropping up! But after watching this video it dawn on me that context is of paramount importance to learn phrasal verbs.
😄 Excellent
Could you record videos on advanced American vocabulary?
No, I'm British. You'll have to ask an American English teacher
I thought that "crop up" Will be "interrupt" ..."dawn on" ="arrive"
Hi Ben. How about calling them "cool verbs", "friendly verbs", "funny verbs", "lovable verbs", "gorgeous verbs" (etc)? The objective disadvantage of the lack of exposure to the new language is usually topped with Lovecraftian or Stephenkingians grammar books titles such as "Escape from the Phrasal Verbs Horror Camp". The student gets terrified at the mere mention of those creepy English creatures, so are many teachers: in such mental and emotional environment the learning process is supposed to happen. Phrasal verbs for students of English and Anatomy for medical students! Typing from a Mediterranean country, I can tell you that (your excellent example) "to understand" may be easy and immediate to understand because there are no alternatives: you either understand it or...you get it. I wouldn't feel the same about "overtaking" and "taking over" though. Thank you and cheerio
But can you offer something to us who don’t like in Britain
"just a few years ago" (?) Hahaha 🤣 hahaha
That's exactly the same my teacher tells me, hahaha. I hate pv!
Is "crop up" a synonym of "bring up"? I would use it to say "mention" something
They are similar but not synonyms. "Crop up" is more passive while "bring up" is more active. "Brexit cropped up" compared to "John brought up Brexit"

Thank you so much 😃
Sir, I'm an indian, i will be giving my language exam of 12th grade next year and in our exam we have phrasal verbs questions and i think i am very weak in solving them, what should i do to tacke them and improve my english writing skills as well?? Please help me I'm really very stressed😣..... I think I'm lacking behind in my writing skills too...
Same here I will give ISC in 2025 but i have to prepare from now
But it's very much difficult to me
Please can you pin more Phrasal verbs like this !!i meant videos
I sometimes feel as though that saying this advanced English in an exam can be dangerous because I'm not sure if they are updated enough and it sounds as if I am a know-it -all and this is totally wrong.
Greetings
Hi Ricardo. It's important to use the vocabulary appropriately but you shouldn't worry about sounding like a know-it-all... that what exams are for! 🙂
If I understood this video ,so what is my level depends on your assessment to me.. 😀
I can't assess your level based on your understanding of the video. There are too many other factors to take into consideration.
@@tothepointenglishwithben.
Thank you very much
Crop Up could be come Up?!
Yes, it's very similar.
1 context 2 context 3 context hahahahahaha thank u. Can SOMEONE crop up too?
Someone can crop up in conversation. But not the actual person
@@tothepointenglishwithben. I see, thank you!! So, if the actual person physically appears... How would you say it? "He Appears"? Haha
Yes, you can say "he appears". But if you want to use a phrasal verb, "turn up" is a good option.
@@tothepointenglishwithben. thanks a bunch! Rewatching your video, find it very useful!
1:03 this joke made me laugh so hard I don't know even why. It came out of nowhere
