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

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,919
verbs in a minute from Happy English. I'm here every

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,519
Friday with a quick one point lesson to help you

4
00:00:13,599 --> 00:00:16,920
learn a new phraseal verb and sound more natural when

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,960
you speak. By the way, if you want to see

6
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,399
the video version of this lesson, just look for Happy

7
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:29,719
English podcast on YouTube. Today's phrasal verb is chew out.

8
00:00:29,839 --> 00:00:35,039
When you choose someone out, it means you scold them strongly,

9
00:00:35,679 --> 00:00:39,320
usually because they did something wrong or made a big mistake.

10
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:44,640
It's a very informal, very American way to say tell

11
00:00:44,759 --> 00:00:49,719
someone off. Like yesterday in the office, my manager chewed

12
00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:53,439
out the team because the report wasn't finished on time,

13
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,280
and my friend Olivia got chewed out by her mom

14
00:00:57,399 --> 00:01:01,280
for coming home too late. I got chewed out once

15
00:01:01,799 --> 00:01:04,879
I forgot to reply to an important email and the

16
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:11,159
client was not happy. And here's a pronunciation tip. Chewout

17
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:17,760
sounds like chew out the w sound in chew links

18
00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:22,920
without chew out. So how about you. Has anyone ever

19
00:01:23,159 --> 00:01:26,959
chewed you out or maybe you had to chew someone

20
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,680
out recently. Let me know in the comments and remember
