15 分钟Hi there, this is Harry, and welcome back to my podcast where I try to help you to understand and use English in a better way.
This might be to help you get that job you wanted, the interview that causes you difficulty, the English that you're not quite able to grasp, or it might be something simple as improving your written skills, whatever they are.
I'll try to help you.
We'll work on pronunciation, phrasal verbs, expressions, simple grammar points that will help you on a day to day basis.
Okay, so what do I have for you in our podcast now?
Well, in this particular podcast, we're going to look at some more phrasal verbs.
Yes, more phrasal verbs.
You seem to love them a lot.
And the phrasal verbs that we're going to look at now are those connected or talking about relationships.
So we all like to be in a relationship.
I think we all like to talk about them, if not our own, about other people's relationships.
And we've all experienced different types of relationships throughout our life, loving ones, not so loving ones, difficult relationships, friendly, unfriendly, whatever they may be.
So here are some phrasal verbs that sum these situations up, and as always, I'll give you the list, and then I'll go through them with some examples to explain them, and hopefully you have a better understanding of how exactly you can use them.
Okay, so here they are.
To fall for someone, to take to someone or to take to something, to stand by someone, just let someone down, to grow apart, to split up, and best of all, to make up.
Okay?
So I'm going to go through them one by one, and where I can, I'll give you some examples.
As I said, relationships are very important part of our lives, whether they be in our private life or indeed from a business perspective, relationships are what decide and what drive and control lots of different parts and aspects of our life.
So let's look at number one.
To fall for someone, well, literally, to fall means to go over.
