hello and welcome to this English lesson my name is Stuart in today's lesson
we're looking at phrasal verbs that are used with the word up let's go to the
intro now as I said today's lesson is looking at phrasal verbs that we form
with up and remember that phrasal verbs are a normal verb and a preposition or
an adverb and they form a verb with one meaning a phrasal verb now they are
difficult to learn but when you get to the level b2 in English or c1 you should
know these particular phrasal verbs and if you are doing an exam like first
certificate or advanced there are a series of phrasal verbs that you need to
know and by learning the ones that we can use with up or ones that we can use
with on for example it helps you to learn the different phrasal verbs now
we're going to be completing these sentences with phrasal verbs with crack
drink eat he'll speak split tidy and use now remember they all are formed with up
so crack up drink up eat up heal up speak up split up tidy up and use up
okay now I have my blue pen here and we'll fill in the spaces according to
which verb goes into the space okay now through context we should be able to
understand some that some will be a little bit more difficult for you so
let's have a look at the first sentence now you can't go swimming until your
wound something up okay now this person obviously has an injury
or they have a wound on their body maybe they cut themselves they have a bad cut
and maybe the cut is still open and it hasn't properly healed okay so therefore
we would use this one here you can't go
swimming until your wound heals up okay so let's put this into the space until
your wound heals up now to heal up means that it is completely cured so if you
had a cut on your arm and the wound is completely healed or completely gone we
would say that your wound has healed up but you can't go swimming until your
wound heals up okay until your wound gets better now the second one the kids
up playing in the living room okay you can just imagine now that there's lots
of children in the living room and they're playing and there's going to be
lots of toys and books and lots of things all over the floor so the kids
are playing in the living room so I'll need to something up when they finish
what do you need to do when they finish so if we have a look at the verbs that
we have here we'll get rid of this one here because we've used it already so
crack drink eat speak split tidy and use tidy would be the one that we put here
okay so the kids are playing in the living room so I'll need to tidy up when
they finish because they leave a lot of mess around the living room as I said
lots of toys lots of books maybe some plates because they had a snack so I'll
need to tidy up meaning that I will need to organize everything put everything
back into its place I'll need to tidy up when they finish okay now number three
sorry I can't hear you will you something up now obviously if I can't
hear a person it means they must be speaking right so will you speak up will
you Ray your voice will you speak up I can't
hear you please speak up raise your voice so sorry I can't hear you will you
speak up ok speak in a louder voice so one two three now number four his jokes
now we'll just get rid of the two that we've done so tidy and speak okay and
we'll do number four so his jokes something me up he's so funny so this
person is a funny person he likes to tell jokes his jokes are very very funny
so they crack me up now this is a difficult one to crack someone up it
means that they make you laugh a lot you find the person's jokes very very funny
so his jokes crack me up he's so funny he's a funny guy his jokes crack me up
he has me in stitches we can also say his jokes crack me up good so we'll get
rid of that one as well number five moving down so what do we have so far
we've got heal up tidy up speak up and crack me up his jokes crack me up so
number five orange juice is good for you so something up now we know this is a
liquid so what do we do with liquids we drink liquids and if we want to finish
all of the liquid in the glass we need to drink it up so drink drink up drink
up okay let's get rid of that one as well
drink up so orange juice is good for you so drink up meaning that you need to
finish your orange juice because it's good for you that's what you would tell
a child for example so drink up now number six the band members didn't like
each other so they something up they didn't like each other they didn't have
a good relationships so what did they do what
do a lot of groups or bands or musicians do when they play together and they
don't get along of course they split up so I'll get rid
of that one as well they split up the band separates it breaks okay you can
also say breakup and this can be for a relationship it can be for a band as we
see here so the band was together and then they split up they separate it okay
so the band members didn't like each other so they split up now the next one
where are we at number seven please try to something up all your vegetables
again food so therefore we only have one verb which is related to food eat so eat
up please try to eat up all your vegetables again maybe you're talking to
a child who doesn't like vegetables but you know that if your child eats the
vegetables he'll grow he or she will grow up to be strong and healthy so you
want them to eat up all their vegetables so please try to eat up all your
vegetables Johnny because I want you to grow up fit and healthy okay and the
last one what does only one left so I can't go away with you next week
I have something up all my holiday leave obviously we need to put use here how do
we put it in we have to change the tents I have used up all of my holiday leave
so I don't have any holiday time left so I can't go away with you next week
because I've used up all my holiday leave I don't have any time left for
holidays so these are phrasal verbs that we can use with up and as we can see
heal up tidy up speak up crack up
drink up eat up split up and use up all phrasal verbs we need to know for that
