I'm John Russell.

Do you like scary movies?

I love scary movies, even though a lot of them have a similar story.

For example, ah, group of people get stuck in a scary old building that isn't coming back, is he?

No, I don't think he's coming back.

This common situation from scary movies is the subject of today's grammar lesson.

Come back is a common phrase.

Alvar Herb.

It combines the verb come with the particle back together.

These words mean return.

In the example I gave you.

The speakers meant that Ben would not come back or return to a place.

But you can also come back to a discussion topic.

Imagine you are watching a debate between two American politicians.

They keep talking about the same issue, education or the economy.

For example, I disagree with you.

I know what the American people want.

I don't think you dio look, I keep coming back to this point in the debate.

You heard one speaker say, coming back to this point, the words to this point suggests that the speaker is talking about returning to something that was said earlier.

So the next time you hear?

Come back.

You can think of scary movies and political debates.

I guess they have something in common, and that's everyday grammar.
