  • Ready to dig into some new phrasal verbs? While the meanings of many phrasal verbs can be guessed because of the words they use, some are just too tricky. In this lesson we look at phrasal verbs like "dish out", "man up", and "water down" to see how they are used in everyday conversations. We will cover: size up, dish out, rat out, dig in, fill out, water down, dumb down, farm out, suck up, suck it up, man up, weigh in, light up, and beat to. After watching, take the quiz to test your understanding of the lesson. www.engvid.com/14-phrasal-ver...

      Size up ... i only knew it in the secondary meaning. But I am from the UK.
      Dish out isnt common in uk cafes restaurants (eatery) but is in the home when mothers dish out the food. I e. put it on the plates rather than putting it in tureens for people to help themselves.

    Not only he explains, actually he carries a complete methodology of teaching along with his explanation. Phrasal verbs are very tricky things to dig out, but I guess the context in a sentence speaks a lot about their right meanings! About Adam, well, he is a great teacher!

    As a native English speaker, but a student of multiple foreign languages, I love phrasal verbs! Knowing that they exist and how they work is being forearmed when it comes to learning another language.
    I used to use ´´to break´´ as an example to ESL speakers, as you can break in, break out, break up, break down, or break off.
    But having watched the videos with ´´to cut´´ and esp ´´to take´´, with 10 different combinations, will be using that in future.
    Also note the ones that are separable or inseparable, such as ´´to look up to´´, ´´to stand for´´, or ´´to fall back on´´.
