Hi, Jennifer! I've always used “rule out” to mean that something is being excluded from consideration, not to prevent something from happening. Are those things actually the same?

Money burns a hole in her pocket. Finally, they broke up as financial matters came between them. 4) One year ago, he had one foot in the grave, and the other slipping. Amazingly, he bounced back and is now as fit as a fiddle! 5) He's very keen on his 1950s hot rod (“old bucket of bolts”), even though it acts up quite often. 6) His dad is regularly really pigheaded, and it's difficult to get one's messages across. It goes to show that you can't teach an old dog new tricks! 7) You can count on Mary to be punctual. She's in her boss's good books. Her timeliness has earned her some brownie points! 8) Thanks for being so helpful and friendly. I owe you one! I make it up to you someday. 9) It took him a while to come around to the idea. 10) He's a vulgar roughneck and a loudmouth. Nobody puts up with his bad behavior.
Amazing examples! You rock!
Hi Jennifer! Thanks a ton, you rock! I got 10/10 on the seventh quiz. Examples: 1) What do you think of this course? Are you going to opt in? 2) Before you decide to drop out of your IT studies, I recommend you reconsider. IT skills are really useful and in high demand these days. 3) It's a formal occasion, so you need to dress up accordingly. 4) What he said is all Greek to me. I don't understand what he's getting at (driving at). 5) The top politician really dropped the ball. Afterwards, he tried to play down the incident.
6) Is it OK for everybody that our intern sits in on this meeting? She needs to learn the ropes of our corporate meeting practices. 7) I'm hungry as a bear. I need to whip up something before I go! 8) Sometimes, you have to be prepared to act on a hunch. 9) His friend spends money like water, and that's why he's in a jam. He needs to cut back on his spending. 10) They bought a house for themselves. Later they noticed there was a large water damage. They got more than they bargained for.
I got itchy feet when I watched a video clip shot from your balcony. So spectacular views and pleasant weather! Currently, it's -3 C here in the southwest of Finland. It must be enjoyable to stay there as it's midwinter in Canada and Finland!
Amazing job! 🥳
Hi Jennifer how's it going, no matter if it's a long video lesson, the longer the better, you can learn a lot more with this kind of videos, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna spend a pleasure time watching your beautiful face and listening to you, thanks for the video Jenn. 👍.
I'm so happy to hear that! 😍
@@JForrestEnglish well, in fact you didn't hear it, you read it 😊 but that doesn't matter at all, It's nothing but the truth Jenn. 👍.
@@fredylopez2477
Metaphorically, it's right to say "I'm so happy to hear that!" even if it is written (not spoken by you). She's absolutely right ✌️👏
Hi Jennifer! Thank you for giving away such amazing tips and pieces of advice, you're the best! I got 10/10 on the 18th quiz. Examples: 1) Video games were very primitive when I was young, so I easily grew out of it and haven't played ever since! 2) I won't walk out in a huff. I like to see things through to the finish. 3) The Earth's resources are being used up at an alarming rate. Smart and insightful approaches are needed, and that applies to every one of us! 4) When I moved, I gave away some stuff to a local second-hand shop. 5) Sorry, the road is blocked off, you have to take a detour.
6) The boss gave us a thumbs up. So, we can go ahead with our revised plan. 7) Jack, mind your p's and q's. Impolite behavior is frowned upon in that upscale restaurant. 8) I know, he's hot-tempered. He shouldn't have lashed out at you, it was out of line. 9) I don't want to burn my bridges. Could we make amends and sort this out somehow? 10) Whenever on vacation in a new city, I sometimes like to wander off the beaten path and find laid-back, cozy places.
That's awesome! 🤩
Hi Jennifer! I got 10/10 on the ninth quiz. Examples: 1) He didn't let his workmate's insulting comments get his goat. He simply shrugged it off. 2) She is an avid photographer. She zoomed in to get a good photo of an exotic bird. 3) He's not only lazybones but also cunning. He always finds a way to wiggle out of his duties. 4) That document is long and as dull as it gets. At long last, I got through it. 5) I'm aiming at boosting my English language communication skills.
6) His friends knew he's impulsive and a bit of a madcap, so they egged him on jumping off the bridge. 7) It's a plum job and your chance to make it big. Don't turn it down! 8) Sorry, I'm late. I got held up by a traffic jam. 9) Just a moment! I freshen up before we hit the road. 10) Surprisingly, my girlfriend and my mother hit it off right from the start.
Amazing job! 🥳
Thanks! I got 9/10 on the fifth quiz (loosen up/wrong, loosened up/right). Examples: 1) Ok, let's kick off the meeting by going through our new marketing strategy. 2) The used cars salesman talked up his cars on sale. I didn't want to take it at face value, so I checked the cars thoroughly. 3) Kids, stop goofing around before you get hurt! 4) Obnoxious people tick me off. 5) He felt under the weather and was just moping around the house.
6) People on Skid Row are barely getting by. They are living from hand to mouth. 7) An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. So don't let problems pile up. 8) She's very talkative, so she often talks a blue streak. Sometimes I have to tune her out. 9) What's wrong? You've been like a bear with a sore head all day. Loosen up a little, will you? 10) He was just going through the motions and did his job by halves. His boss really flipped out and fired him.
Amazing job!
Hi Jennifer! Thanks a bunch! I got 10/10 on the 17th quiz. Examples: 1) It's obvious, that AI (artificial intelligence) is phased in various companies. Those who have a head start, have the advantage over the others. 2) I blocked off next Thursday on my calendar for the meeting. 3) This is a no-go area, so you had better clear out, the policeman said. 4) I have a serious sweet tooth, so I couldn't do without sweets. 5) The top politician was fishing in the murky waters and was on the take. Therefore, he was forced out of the office.
6) This topic is so complicated that it takes time and effort to sink in. 7) As a parent, if you end up in trouble with the law, I'm not going to bail you out. You'll have to face the music and learn how to keep on the straight and narrow. Remember, what goes around comes around. 8) Sometimes skeletons in the closet, if left behind unsolved, may haunt you later in life. 9) You don't want to miss out on my party-there is your favorite band playing and buffet. 10) Mary is as regular as clockwork. I wonder why she didn't show up this time?
Amazing job! 🥳
Thank you Mrs. Jennifer for the online English tutor videos. It help me so much to train and improve my English. Still have to improve more, and much more still I have to learn. My friend a couple days ago asked me "where did you learn English?" And I recommend her to follow your channel.
Thank you Ma'am. From Arik in Indonesia.
I'm so glad to hear that! ❤️ Thank you for sharing with your friends!
Hi Jennifer! Thanks! I got 10/10 on the second quiz. Examples: 1) There was a special offer at a local five-and-dime. I went there early and was able to get it. I lucked out! 2) Make sure you don't back out of your promises and commitments to not let your customers down. 3) My friend is a real chatterbox. She rambles on pretty much everything under the sun. I can't get a word in edgewise! 4) The other day I saw a video clip of a daredevil who climbed on top of a skyscraper without a safety harness! I was flabbergasted. How on earth he pulled it off! 5) You have to abide by traffic rules for your own and others' safety. If you don't you may get a ticket for reckless driving.
6) The main suspect of the fraud clammed up and pled the 5th. 7) The situation was precarious and we were walking a tightrope. However, eventually, everything panned out just fine. 8) The professor delivered so boring lecture that some students nodded off. 9) It dawned on him that he needs to take a new course in his life. He wanted to get out of the rat race. 10) On the surface your plan looks good, but let me mull it over. I'll sleep on it and get back to you tomorrow.
Amazing job! And great examples!
it's an important and dense course, I have to divide this episode into several parts, and repeat the exercises to imprint in my mind all the subtlety of phrasal verbs!
Thank you Jenifer for this brainstorming 😇
Wonderful, great job!
Excellent lecture. Just keep it up. You're helping a lot of people. Oh, one more thing, you're very beautiful.
That's so sweet of you! 💕
Thanks! I got 9/10 (taken up/wrong, taking up/right). Examples: 1) The scientist carried out a new experiment. 2) Beyond doubt, I'm a bit of the old school. I still jot down things to remember in my calendar. 3) I can't make head nor tail of these directions! We need an expert to sort all this out! 4) The rescuers had to call off the search due to wretched weather. 5) Studying English takes up quite a lot of my time. That said, it's time well spent!
6) Let's catch up and shoot the breeze! Could you drop in next Saturday? 7) Fill out this form detailedly, please! 8) They made a ground-breaking innovation in which they have a patent pending. Now they have plans to branch out to international markets. 9) The modern-day rat race is all about keeping up with the Joneses. 10) As a result of the incoming Hurricane, the picnic was pushed back till next Saturday.
So glad you enjoyed the lesson, @Ari3870 ❤️
Hi Jennifer! Thanks a bunch! I got 9/10 on the 3rd quiz (hones in on/wrong, honed in on/correct). Examples: 1) She talked me into leaving the party early. 2) The big kahuna asked his secretary to draw up the contract. 3) It was a race against the clock. We stepped it up and were able to finish the report at the eleventh hour. 4) He has been working like a dog for a long time. As a result, he burned out and had to take a long sick leave. 5) That's a controversial issue, “an elephant in the room”. Finally, Mary had the guts to bring it up.
6) I look up to all the scientists and decision-makers who try to solve present-day challenging problems. 7) Do you have time to stick around and chew the fat? Yeah, sure! 8) Your winter tires are really worn out, and it's slippery down there. You are tempting fate if you don't buy new ones. 9) So you paid 100 € for that T-shirt? Have you taken leave of your senses? That's a daylight robbery, the vendor really ripped you off! 10) We really need to hone in on improving our marketing strategy.
You're the best! 😘
I want to thank you so much for this long enriching video. The longer, the better as you have also expanded the usage of the phrasal verbs. Thank you thank you, and please keep up the fantastic work ❤🎉

Let's go! 👏

She's a knockout! 2) He's into playing electric guitar. He has played ever since he was a pint-sized kid. 3) He was with his back against the wall. The recent setbacks brought him down. 4) I found out that Mary broke off with you. Cheer up!

6) I already dropped the goods off, boss. Everything's done to a T. 7) Weather was wretched, so we ended up staying at home. 8) That's a very enticing offer. Unfortunately, I have to turn it down.

It's a more complicated matter. Well, you live and learn!
Amazing job! 🥳
Hi Jennifer! Thanks! I scored 10/10 on the tenth quiz. Examples: 1) She's a skilled IT specialist, so she knows how to take apart and put together any computer easily. 2) Thank you for taking me out. I had a whale of a time! 3) After graduating from Harvard with flying colors, her career really took off. 4) The shirt I bought from the local store had a manufacturing defect. So, I took it back. 5) Sorry, but I'm as busy as a beaver at the moment. Thus, I can't take on new responsibilities right now.
6) I took up Latin American dances several years ago. It's a very nice hobby. 7) A word to the wise - don't take Jack back. He's a tomcat and will cheat on you whenever he can. 8) It's high time I took off. I have to wake up at the crack of dawn. 9) As for looks, he takes after his dad. They are like two peas in a pod. 10) Could you take over the supervisor's assignments while she's on leave?
Amazing job! 🥳

Hi professor, loads of thanks from Morocco
Loads of love to you!

WHOO HOO! 🥳
Helpful! Thank you !
My pleasure! 😘
This phrasal verbs lesson is the best and most valuable even in comparasion among the equvivalent great ones on youtube. Explanations, background video, quizes and of course the coach working are juist perfect and extremely useful. And all this is for free! I have no idea why such and awesome video have such a few likes. By the way, the explanation "get out, get out of town" of Yours and the way how it was performed just made may day! It was brillian, Jennifer. I vividly imagined a man that just had won a million in a lottery, ran to somebody to share his joy and got a replied "get out of town". And after that nothing left to him but jump into the car and drive faraway lightspeed fast. I bursted out laugh! Much appreciated, Jennifer!
So glad you enjoyed the lesson, @captainsmollett9413 ❤️

I appreciate that! Thank you so much for your nice comment :) Always nice to hear from you, Gams! 😊❤️
Hi, Jennifer! I've always used “rule out” to mean that something is being excluded from consideration, not to prevent something from happening. Are those things actually the same?
Additionally, could "end up" be used when someone or something finds themselves in a situation or place unintentionally?
Yes and Yes!
I want to get across the idea that if you could complete all the essential phrasal verbs,for I want to teach them to my children. Your way of teaching is very intriguing.
Thanks for watching! 😁
You are the best ❤ 😊🎉
🎉🎉🎉
Awesome!
Glad you think so!
Thanks dear teacher I always had problems with phrases verbs but you learn very good and are easy now
So glad you enjoyed the lesson, @setodetode5028 ❤️
Thanks alot
My pleasure! 😘
Hi Jennifer I have been listening to these LONG lessons while going for a walk or going on a bus. Because I don't have the time to spend one hour in front of a screen.
Would it be possible for you to share the PDF of the quizzes that way we can memorize them better? . THANKS IN ADVANCE
That's a great suggestion. In the future I definitely will create PDFs for these lessons as well :)
Ma'am there are only 180 phrasal verbs and the last 10 are repeated, so total 170.
I am proud of myself that I wrote it all down. Thanks ma'am from India ❤
Well done!
Thank you so much for all of your efforts to make this amazing video
You're the best! 😘
Hey Jennifer.
Would you mind considering making another marathon (200+) kind of video with phrasal verbs, please?
As a suggestion... I'd suggest that you make it based on the book called 'THE ULTIMATE PHRASAL VERB BOOK' by Carl W. Hart. I could send you a pdf version for free, of course if you need it.
Thank you, for your hard work.
Take care.
Great suggestion! 😁
@@JForrestEnglish Should I send you the book?
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

"Is it not a phrasal verb, but is this sentence fine? Following the next rule: adjective + preposition + gerund. Now, I am confident enough to using all these phrasal verbs in a conversation. I think it's wrong because 'confident' isn't an adjective. 🙏"
Great question! I'll answer that in a future lesson! 😁
