I know you love phrasal verbs. Am I right? Well, today I've got 30 extremely common ones that you should know because you will hear them and you can use them every day in English. So let's get to it. Oh, get to it. That's a phrasal verb too. It means to start doing something. Let's get to it. Okay, that's 31 phrasal verbs now. All right, 30 starting now.

All right, quickly, before we start, the golden rule of learning phrasal verbs is that you learn them in context. There's no point just taking your list and translating them into your language. It's difficult to remember them. You'll probably use them incorrectly when you're using them in real life. So always learn phrasal verbs in context. So I've got plenty of examples for you today for these 30 phrasal verbs. So let's not waste any more time and let's get to it. Remember, let's start.

Number 1, look up. This means to search for a word in a dictionary or search for information online or in an encyclopaedia or Wikipedia. For example, you could look these phrasal verbs up in a dictionary, but watching this video will be more fun. It will, I promise. And if you do love phrasal verbs, I've made a document there for you, a PDF with the 100 most common phrasal verbs. So if you want to take this video to the next step, download that by clicking up there or by clicking the link in the description to get your copy of that free PDF.

Phrasal verb number 2 is get up. It's something you do every day when you're lying in bed and you stand up, you get up. We can use this from the lying position in bed or when you're sitting down or when you're on the floor. It just means to rise. So I need to get up early tomorrow morning for an important meeting. Or if you're sitting down on the bus and a little old lady comes in, what should you do? You should get up and give your seat to the little old lady. So just remember, and this is important for the next few verbs we're going to look at, it's going from a not up position to an up position.

Right, the next one is hang up. And this can mean to put your clothes, your coat, your T shirt, your jumper, on a coat hangar and put it on a hook on the wall or in your wardrobe. Can you hang up your clothes, please? So again, we're going from your clothes not being in the up position to being on the up position. Hang up can also mean to end a telephone call, which nowadays looks like this. However, a long, long time ago, if you wanted to hang up, you had to put your telephone up on the wall, and that is why it's hang up.

Talking about telephone communication, we also have the phrasal verb cut off, and this is when the communication is interrupted very, very abruptly, like the phone call was cut off due to bad reception. Okay, a few more with up. We have give up, which means to stop trying or to surrender, to waive the white hanky, to give up. So we could say don't give up on your dream. Keep working for it. You can do it. Don't give up. Or if you're trying to do a crossword and it's really difficult, we could say, Hey, don't give up. Keep trying. You'll get there.

Thank you so much for clarifying the "difference" between fill in and fill out. I got confused with these verbs so many times in the past 😅
