  • Hello. My name is Emma, and in today's video I'm going to talk about something I love,

  • and that is travel. So, if you like travelling too, if you're planning on going on a vacation,

  • or if you know somebody who's travelling, this video will be very, very helpful to you.

  • In this video I'm going to teach you some very important verbs. They're all phrasal

  • verbs, and I'll explain what a phrasal verb is in a moment. So, these are all verbs that

  • we use when we're talking about travel. Okay.

  • So, to get started, I wanted to tell you a little bit about phrasal verbs.

  • What is a phrasal verb? One of the difficulties students have with English are verbs where you have

  • a verb and a preposition. So, when you see a verb and a preposition together, that's

  • a phrasal verb. Now, you might be thinking: "What's a preposition?" Good question. I'm

  • going to give you an example. We have here four words, each of these is a phrasal verb.

  • They all have the verb "get": "get in", "get up", "get on", "get over", and there's many

  • more, "get away". There's tons of them. Each of these actually can have multiple meanings,

  • too. So, one of the most difficult parts about English is learning phrasal verbs, because

  • this, the blue part is the preposition, it can change the meaning of the verb. Okay?

  • So, prepositions are words like: "on", "off", "up", "down", "toward", "over", "away",

  • these types of words are prepositions. So, you'll notice with phrasal verbs, they're very, very

  • common in conversation. They're... You can write them down, too, but in general, when

  • people talk they often use phrasal verbs. Okay? So, they're very, very important, especially

  • when you're talking about going on a trip with your friends or family.

  • So let's look at some of the common phrasal verbs we use when we're talking about trips.

  • The first verb I want to teach you: "Drop off". Okay? So: "drop" is the verb, "off"

  • is the preposition, together: "drop off" is a phrasal verb. What does this mean:

  • "drop off"? When you "drop someone off" it means you're taking them to a place and then you

  • leave them there. So, for example, maybe your friend needs to go to the airport, so you

  • drive them to the airport and you drop them off at the airport. This means you take them

  • there and you leave them in that place. Okay? So they don't come home with you; they stay

  • there. So, for example, I have a friend named Frank, and when Frank goes travelling:

  • "We drop Frank off at the airport." So, we drive Frank to the airport, he has all his luggage,

  • his suitcases, and then we say to Frank: "Goodbye, Frank, you know, have a nice trip." We drop

  • Frank off at the airport. You can also use "drop off" in a lot of other situations. For

  • example, when you were a child maybe your parents, your mom or your dad, or maybe your

  • grandparents dropped you off at school. This means that they took you to school, and then

  • once you got to school, they would say goodbye to you and they would leave. So: "drop off"

  • means you take someone to a place, and then you leave them there. You'll also notice...

  • So, I have here the verb and the preposition. "Frank" is a name of a person and it's in

  • the middle of "drop" and "off". Okay? So, these two are not together. We drop somebody

  • off at the airport. Okay? So, sometimes with phrasal verbs... For some phrasal verbs you

  • actually separate them, and you can put the names of somebody between them; for other

  • ones you can't do that. For this one: "drop off", you put the name between the two...

  • Between the verb and the preposition.

  • So, now let's look at another example of a common phrasal verb. "See off". Okay? So,

  • again, we have "off" in both of these. "See off" is when... It's similar to "drop off",

  • but it's a little bit different. Sometimes your family or your friends are going away

  • for a long time, maybe they're going on a vacation or a trip, so you want to

  • "see them off".

  • It means you want to say goodbye to them at the airport, at the train station,

  • maybe at their house. So, it's that goodbye you say before somebody goes off on a vacation.

  • Okay? So, for example: "We see Frank off." Frank is going to Australia, so we go to the

  • airport because we want to say goodbye to Frank, so: "We see Frank off" is another way

  • to say: "We say goodbye to Frank when he goes on his trip." All right, so now let's look

  • at... Oh, and again, similar to "drop off", notice where "Frank" is. "We see Frank off.",

  • "Frank" is between the verb and the preposition. Okay? So, we see somebody off.

  • "We see our mother off.", "We see our father off.", "We see our friend off."

  • So, this is the way you use this phrasal verb.

  • Now, let's look at some other phrasal verbs that have to do with travel.

  • Okay, so our next phrasal verb is very important when we're talking about the airport. Okay?

  • So, if you've ever been on an airplane, you should know this word: "take off". So, the

  • meaning of "take off" is this is when the airplane leaves the airport and flies away.

  • Okay? So, if this is the airplane, it takes off. Okay? It's the opposite of "lands". So:

  • "takes off" means the airplane goes up into the sky. So, an example of this is very simple:

  • "The plane takes off." Okay? "The plane takes off at 7 o'clock." Again, "takes" and "off"

  • are together, so there's nothing separating them.

  • All right, what's another important phrasal verb? We also have: "Get in". So, this also

  • has to do with the airplane. This is when the plane arrives at the airport. "...on an airport"

  • , "plane arrives", sorry. The plane arrives at an airport. Okay? So, for example:

  • "Frank's plane gets in at 9 pm." We can also use this for a person. Okay? When you say:

  • "Frank gets in at 9 pm", it pretty much means arrives. So: "Frank gets in at 9 pm.", "Frank's airplane gets in at 9 pm." We can also use this for train:

  • "Frank's train gets in at 9 pm."

  • So, it means arrives. Okay? And we use it a lot when we talk about transportation,

  • like planes and trains. Okay.

  • The next one: "Check in". "Check in" and "Check out". These are very important for when you

  • stay at a hotel or a hostle. Okay? So, when you check in, this means you register at the

  • hotel. So, for example, I want to stay at a hotel, I want to sleep at the hotel, I go

  • to the hotel and there's somebody at the front desk, and what do I say to them? I say:

  • "I would like to check in." "Frank checks in.", "Frank checks in to the hotel."

  • So, this means Frank goes into the hotel, and he tells them: "I'm here. I want a bed. I check in."

  • Now, the opposite of this is "Check out". This is when you leave the hotel, and you

  • pay them the money for your stay there. So, maybe you go to the hotel for five days, when

  • you leave the hotel and you pay the money for those five days, that's when you check

  • out. So, we can say: "Frank checks out." Now, let's look at a couple more phrasal verbs.

  • Okay, so our next phrasal verb is: "set out". Okay? "Set out". So, what does it mean? When

  • you set out it means you start... So, key word here is "start". A journey, or you sometimes

  • start a road trip. So, it's the beginning of usually a journey or a trip. So, for example,

  • imagine Frank, he's at the hotel and he wants to go on an adventure, he wants to explore.

  • Maybe he's... I said he was in Australia, maybe he's in Sydney, Australia, and he wants

  • to explore Sydney, so we can say: "Frank set out early to explore." This means that Frank

  • starts his journey early. Okay? If you've ever gone on a road trip where you drove your

  • car somewhere very far, you know, maybe you drove your car for three days to go somewhere,

  • you can say: "Every day we set out early" or "we set out late". So this means we began

  • our trip early or we began our trip late. So, "set out" means to start a journey.

  • Okay, our last one, very important: "pick up". Okay, there's many different meanings

  • of the word "pick up". You can pick up the phone, you can pick something up with your

  • hand. In this case it's a little bit different when we're talking about travel. When we're

  • talking about "pick up" here, we're talking about where you get someone from a place,

  • and then you take them to another place. So, for example, when Frank comes home, I will

  • pick Frank up from the airport and take Frank home. Okay? So it's where you... Usually it's

  • you're in a car, not always, but usually you pick somebody up with your car, and you take

  • them somewhere else. So, for example: "Michelle picks Frank up in her car." So, maybe at the

  • airport, she drives to the airport, Frank's there from his long trip in Australia, and

  • she picks him up. Not literally, she doesn't lift him up. No. With her car, she takes him

  • from the airport to his house. Okay.

  • So, I'd like you to come visit our website at www.engvid.com,

  • and there, you can actually do a quiz to practice all the words you learned today and the grammar in these words.

  • So, I hope you check that out. And until next time, take care.
