Verbs in a minute from Happy English. I'm here every

3
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:14,080
Friday with a quick one point lesson to help you

4
00:00:14,199 --> 00:00:17,719
learn a new phraseal verb and sound more natural when

5
00:00:17,879 --> 00:00:21,559
you speak. And if you want to watch this lesson,

6
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:27,079
just look for Happy English Michael on YouTube. Today's phraseal

7
00:00:27,199 --> 00:00:32,719
verb is rattle off. When you rattle something off, it

8
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:38,640
means you say or list things quickly and easily, usually

9
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,880
without stopping to think, much like my friend Lisa is

10
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,640
amazing with dates. You can ask her about any historical

11
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:53,600
event and she'll rattle off the exact year it happened.

12
00:00:54,119 --> 00:00:58,359
And my coworker Tom, he can rattle off ten phraseal

13
00:00:58,479 --> 00:01:03,240
verbs in less than thirty seconds, no problem at all.

14
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:09,239
And here's a pronunciation tip. Rattle off sounds like rattle off.

15
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:15,439
The T sound of rattle is a flap t sound rattle,

16
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:21,719
and the L sound links with off, So rattle off,

17
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,599
rattle off. How about you? Is there something you can

18
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:32,680
rattle off? Maybe song lyrics, movie quotes, or English phrasal verbs.

00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,879
