  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Verb Phrase 162. The verb praise today is to "make

  • out.' Okay. We actually have six meanings today and six uses. And we give examples

  • for each one of them. All right. Let's look at the first one here. If someone makes

  • out in a situation, we describe how well or how poorly one did. We use a very

  • similar to the way we say like somebody fared well or somebody fared poorly or

  • somebody managed well. So here's a couple of examples here. He made out well with

  • that investment. So he did well. It's pretty simple . All right. Number two. How did you

  • make out with preparing your project ? Like did you make out well ? Didn't you

  • make out well ? Did you get anything accomplished ? Yes. So very often we ask

  • somebody how they made out with something. How did you do with something ?

  • Okay. Let's look at the second one here. To kiss and touch passionately. All right.

  • So we could say that couple was making out at party. Yeah. If they're kissing and

  • moving their hands. We also call that making out. Or that teenage couple

  • was making out in the MRT. So they're probably holding their bodies close to

  • each other kissing each other, moving their hands. This is what we call making

  • out. Okay. Number three here. To write the name of a person you are writing a check

  • out to. All right. Yeah. So if you've ever written out checks , checks in the

  • US we write out checks all the time. And somebody may ask who do I make this

  • check out to. So they want the person's name because they have to know the

  • person's name. They have to write it. So they may say who do you make a check out

  • to. So what name do I write in on this line ? Okay. Let's look at number four

  • here. To be able to see hear or read or distinguish with difficulty. Yeah. Usually

  • we're having trouble doing these things, especially seeing, hearing or reading. So

  • let's look at the example here. Can you make out his handwriting ? Yeah. , maybe

  • somebody's handwriting is really bad and you're trying to read it.

  • Trying to figure out what it says . Then we say to make it out. Okay.

  • Or number, or the next one here, We could say I can barely make out what he is

  • saying. Maybe his speech or his words were

  • unclear and you had a difficult time figuring out what he was trying to say.

  • So you're going to have trouble making out what he's saying. All right. Let's look at

  • the fifth one here. To describe someone in a certain way or imply or suggest

  • something and in , in, in a particular way, especially an incorrect way. Or at least

  • the person who you're saying it about feels that way. So this is one way that

  • we might hear it. We hear it this way all the time, especially somebody like

  • the media might do this. He is twisting my words or changing my words and using

  • them out of context. You know not what the way you were saying it, or you know,

  • just sometimes when you just separate words from somewhere it may appear or

  • seem different. She is trying to make me out to be a racist in that way. So trying

  • to make somebody appear in a certain way and obviously this person doesn't think

  • they are that. So that's what they're saying. Somebody's trying to make them

  • out to be a certain way or you can go the opposite way. You could say she is

  • making him out to be a hero and clearly he is not. So the way she's talking

  • about him, in the positive way. She's making him out to seem much better than

  • he really is. Okay. All right. And the last one here. Number six. To write or fill out

  • you know, fill out something especially a document or something like that. Make out

  • a list of all the things you need for the trip. Yeah. We often say to make out

  • a list . Of course you could say to write up a list too. You say other verbs

  • too. Gut we do say to make out a list. And the last one here. I still make out

  • Christmas cards every year to send to friends and family. So if you make out a

  • Christmas card , it just simply means you write something. You know, Merry Christmas

  • and maybe some nice words. Wish them some nice things or greetings. You make out a

  • Christmas card. Okay. Anyway, I hope you got it. I

  • hope it was informative. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
