IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH PHRASAL VERBS
If you have been studying English for any length of time, you know that English phrasal verbs are really tough. So in today's English lesson, we are going to take one of those English phrasal verbs, take back, and talk about all of the ways they are used in English. I'm pretty sure there are nine ways we use take back in English. Maybe we don't use take back nine different ways in English, but it's a lot. Six, five, how about this? It's too many. My hope is after watching this English lesson, you will feel more comfortable using English phrasal verbs in your next English conversation. I think I just said English 50 times in that sentence. The first way we use take back in English is when you receive something. Maybe you receive a gift, maybe you borrow something. In the United States, we have libraries where you can borrow a book, but you need to take it back within two weeks. A couple of weeks ago, my brother let me borrow a giant fan. I really need to take that fan back to him. I need to take that fan back. Maybe you purchase an item at the store, and for some reason, it doesn't work. Maybe the shirt is too small. Maybe your phone is broken. You can take it back to the store, and hopefully you will get your money back. We sometimes use take back when we speak. Maybe you say the wrong thing. Hey, I have an appointment on Wednesday. Wait, I take that back. It's on Tuesday. Little kids in the United States will sometimes say take that back when somebody says something mean to them. Hey, you are a jerk. No, I'm not. Take that back. In a recent live lesson I did about emotions, I talked about nostalgia. Some people have nostalgia when they look at old photos. It takes them back to a time period in their life. Maybe it takes them back one year. Maybe it takes them back five years. Maybe it takes them back even more than that. If you're old like me, it could take you back to about 48 years. This is an old school kind of English lesson. It takes me back to when I first started this channel. I had a little more hair back then, I think. Before we go too much further, if you are enjoying this English lesson, could you please hit the like button? And if this is your first time here, please subscribe so you never miss an English lesson. We also use take back when we talk about transportation. Maybe you are going to a party with your friend and they are driving you. But on the way to the party, maybe you start feeling bad. Maybe you are starting to get sick. You could say to your friend, hey, can you take me back to my house? I'm not feeling that well. I hope you now feel a little more confident when you are using English phrasal verbs in your next conversation. If you're looking for more English, there's that lesson I did about how to talk about emotions in English. Thanks so much for watching. See you next time.
