Speaker 1: Hey there, it's Michael here and welcome back to another

2
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:11,519
Happy English Friday fraseal verb. Every Friday, I'll be here

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,439
with a quick one point English lesson to help you

4
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:19,519
learn one new phraseal verb and sound more natural when

5
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:24,519
you speak. Last week we looked at toy with, which

6
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:29,679
means to consider something, but not so seriously. Today's phraseal

7
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,719
verb is the opposite of that mull over. When you

8
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:38,200
mull something over, it means you think about it carefully

9
00:00:38,679 --> 00:00:42,799
before making a decision. You're not rushing, You're taking your

10
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,479
time to consider the options. Like my buddy David got

11
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,280
a job offer in another city. He said he needs

12
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,200
to mull it over before he gives them his answer.

13
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,159
And last week Emily was thinking about a new car,

14
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,719
but she told me she wanted to mull it over

15
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,599
for a few days first, and me, well, I've been

16
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,000
mulling over the idea of starting a new project for

17
00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:14,640
my students, but I want to wait to be sure

18
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,719
it's the right time. And by the way, notice the

19
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:25,400
pronunciation mull over mull over. We link the L at

20
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:30,519
the end of mull with over, so it's not mull over,

21
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,599
it's mull over. I'm gonna mull over that idea. How

22
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,560
about you? Is there anything you're mulling over these days?
