We're working on building our vocabulary, which is the most important thing you can do to become more fluent in English. Phrasal verbs are really important because we use them all the time, but it's not always clear what they mean. Today we're going to look at three ways that we use the phrasal verb clean up. Most commonly, we use clean up when we talk about making something clean and tidy. For example, if you have kids, you probably ask them all the time, 'Hey, can you please clean up your room?' I spilled coffee on my shirt, so I had to clean it up before the meeting. Clean up also means to make something more efficient or effective. For example, we need to clean up the website to make it more user-friendly. Thirdly, if someone or something cleans up, they dominate or win completely. For example, the new Marvel action movie cleaned up at the box office. She cleaned up at the Olympics by winning eight gold medals. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

HEAR or LISTEN? - Quick Grammar Guide #shorts

Image
Hi folks, Charlie here. What is the difference between "hear" and "listen"? They're both to do with sounds coming into our ears, but we use them in slightly different ways. "Hear" means to notice the sounds with your ears. It's automatic. There's no effort involved. Here are a couple of examples: • I can hear the birds outside. • Can you hear me okay? • Suddenly I heard a noise. There was somebody else in the house. Now, on the other hand, "listen" means to pay attention to the sounds. You need to make an effort. It's not automatic. And we usually listen to something. For example: • I like to listen to music. • I listen very carefully to what she said and wrote it all down. • Can you please listen to me? I have something important to say. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching. See you next time. ❖ Support the channel HERE 👋🏽: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/organicenglish More from Organic English: Organic English

So, here, I wasn't sure how successful the startup would be, but I took the risk and invested in it anyway. Here's another example: "He wasn't sure about the weather, but he took a punt on it being sunny and prepared a picnic." In this instance, he wasn't sure whether the weather was going to be good or not, but he took the risk and prepared a picnic. No
