1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: I went over my notes today and after reading over everything,

2
00:00:05,679 --> 00:00:10,080
I found out that we haven't run through any frasal

3
00:00:10,199 --> 00:00:15,720
verbs here in a while. Have we fallen behind or

4
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:23,839
is it just that I've been mixing things up? Let's discuss.

5
00:00:24,559 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 2: Welcome to another Happy English podcast, coming to you from

6
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,359
New York City, and here's your English teacher, Michael all rye.

7
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,399
Speaker 1: Thank you John, and thanks everyone. It's Michael here from

8
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:42,039
Happy English and I help people speak English better. This

9
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:48,240
is Happy English Podcast, Episode seven point fifty one. Frasal

10
00:00:48,359 --> 00:00:53,880
Verbs for Education. Frasal verbs are a huge part of English,

11
00:00:54,159 --> 00:00:58,359
especially spoken English, and today I have a set of

12
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,240
ten frasal verbs that you can use to talk about education,

13
00:01:04,079 --> 00:01:09,519
learning and studying. Before we dive in, let's listen to

14
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:14,120
a conversation between two high school teachers who are talking

15
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,000
in the teacher's office at the end of the school day.

16
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 3: Hey, John, have you had a chance to go over

17
00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:22,840
the student essays yet? Yeah?

18
00:01:22,879 --> 00:01:25,239
Speaker 4: I just finished. I had to read over a couple

19
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,640
of them a few times because some students still haven't

20
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,280
caught on to the structure we discussed same here.

21
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,239
Speaker 3: I think they're mixing up the formatting rules. I'll need

22
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,760
to go over that again in class.

23
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 4: That sounds like a good idea. And did you hand

24
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,760
out the project guidelines for next week?

25
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 3: Yes, I handed them out this morning. I told them

26
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,799
to hand in their rough drafts by Friday so we

27
00:01:43,799 --> 00:01:45,920
can give feedback before the final submission.

28
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 4: That's smart. I'll run through the project instructions with my

29
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:51,920
class tomorrow just to make sure they don't fall behind.

30
00:01:52,159 --> 00:01:54,719
Speaker 3: Good plan. I had a couple of students fall behind

31
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,359
last semester, and it's tough to get them back on track.

32
00:01:57,599 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know what you mean. By the way one

33
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,680
student and ask me if they could look up the

34
00:02:01,719 --> 00:02:05,239
project details using some extra resources online for their project.

35
00:02:05,519 --> 00:02:06,319
I think it's great.

36
00:02:06,519 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 3: Definitely, it's nice when they find out things on their own.

37
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,479
I'll make sure to remind my students to look up

38
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,120
any terms they don't understand too.

39
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 4: Sounds like we're on the same page. Hopefully everyone will

40
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:18,680
catch on this time.

41
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: And now let's have a look at these phrasal verbs.

42
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,199
The first one is go over. Go over means to

43
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:34,280
review or check something. For example, let's go over the

44
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,879
homework before we hand it in. I need to go

45
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:43,080
over my notes before the exam tomorrow. In a similar way.

46
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:49,080
We have read over. Read Over means to read something quickly,

47
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:54,159
often to check for mistakes or to check the details.

48
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,400
Here are some examples. Make sure to read over your

49
00:02:58,599 --> 00:03:02,199
essay before you hand it in. The teacher read over

50
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:08,240
our assignments and gave feedback. The third one is catch on.

51
00:03:09,199 --> 00:03:14,879
Catch on means to understand something, especially after some time.

52
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:21,719
You can catch on or catch on to something. Let's

53
00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:25,840
look at some examples. They talk pretty quickly on that

54
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:31,639
TV program, but I finally caught on. Alice caught on

55
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,599
to the new math concepts faster than the rest of

56
00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:41,039
the class. The next one is mix up, which means

57
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:46,280
to confuse two or more things. For example, a lot

58
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:50,520
of English learners mix up the meanings of affect the

59
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:56,280
verb and affect the noun. I heard that Cindy mixed

60
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:01,960
up the dates for the assignment and handed it in late. Next,

61
00:04:02,199 --> 00:04:08,759
we have two hand frasal verbs hand out and hand in.

62
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,879
Hand Out means to distribute something to a group of people.

63
00:04:14,599 --> 00:04:18,199
Here are some examples. In front of the station, they

64
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,160
were handing out samples of some new coffee drink. The

65
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,639
professor handed out the exam papers as soon as the

66
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:31,639
class started. On the other hand, hand in means to

67
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:38,240
officially submit something like homework or an assignment. Let's look

68
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,800
at some examples of this. Don't forget to hand in

69
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,920
your assignments by Friday. I handed in my essay just

70
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:53,079
before the deadline. Next is look up, which means to

71
00:04:53,319 --> 00:05:01,079
search for information, especially in reference books or online. For example,

72
00:05:01,639 --> 00:05:04,959
if you don't know the word, just look it up

73
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,920
in the dictionary. Barry quickly looked up the answer on

74
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,079
his phone during the class. Next, when you run through something,

75
00:05:16,399 --> 00:05:20,959
you review something quickly, like a list, a schedule, or

76
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:25,399
a set of instructions. Let's run through the plan one

77
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:30,199
more time before we start. We ran through the schedule

78
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:35,360
before the school trip. If you fall behind in your

79
00:05:35,439 --> 00:05:39,240
lessons or your work, you fail to keep up with that.

80
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,879
Here are some examples of fall behind. I missed a

81
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,279
week of school, so I fell behind in math. If

82
00:05:48,319 --> 00:05:54,240
you don't study regularly, you'll fall behind. And finally, for today,

83
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:59,560
we have find out. Find out means to learn or

84
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,279
discs cover information. I found out there's going to be

85
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,040
a pop quiz tomorrow. We'll find out the test results

86
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:15,639
next week. Remember, you can find out information, but you

87
00:06:15,959 --> 00:06:21,000
find an object and keep in mind. The best way

88
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,240
to remember this and any other word or phrase in

89
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,120
English is to practice by taking that word or phrase,

90
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,519
write it in a sentence that's true for you or

91
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,600
true in your world, and then memorize your sentences. Hey,

92
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,759

93
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,199
