This is the best lecture i have been looking for! Some videos won’t explain the differences between the words and phrases and how to use these words or phrases, the lecturers just ask you to memorise them to increase your vocabulary, in the end , students try to use the big words which are seldom used by native speakers in their daily conversations.

Hi Daniel and Maria First of all. Thank for sharing useful video. This video is very useful, I learned some english phrasal verbs, I understand how to use it, they are very meaningful. The second, I also usually forget it's meaning even I make some sentences with phrasal verbs, perhap I rarely use it. Finally, Thank for your useful lesson, I hope The Oxford Online English will has more and more useful lession like these to teach everyone in the world. Good luck all you

Nice practice, Joao! Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) 'I popped out to get some drinks at...' not, 'I popped out something to drink at...' 2) '...at the supermarket,' not, 'at supermarket.' 3) '...my homework. I am going to...' not, '...my home work I am going to...' Hope this helps you!

Thank you. As soon as my parents come along at the airport, I greet them and help with their luggage. After having lunch at a restaurant, John heads off his friends at the hotel. If you make a list of shopping, I will pop out and get items at the supermarket.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for sharing! Here are some corrections for you: 1) 'Come along' means to go with you/someone. Therefore, it would be better to say something like: 'As soon as my parents get to the airport...' not, 'come along'. 2) '...John heads off with his friends...' or, '...John heads off to the hotel,' not, '...John heads off his friends at the hotel'. 3) 'If you make a shopping list...' not, 'a list of shopping'. Hope this is useful for you!

[@fahiem95]

I've noted that when we use phrasal verbs with non English native speakers, they often don't understand what we mean whereas with English native speakers sometimes I try some new phrasal verbs that I learnt and they understand. There are some phrasal verbs who are very uncommon that even English native speakers might not understand, so I think we should learn all the common phrasal verbs.

We do not split up the words in a phrasal verb to have separate meanings of each separate word. The phrasal verb has one meaning and that is of the complete phrasal verb, not separated by word.

[@alexdclopes1973]

I find these phrasal verbs of English very complicated since in Portuguese very little of this type of structure is used. It's hard! My neurons are short! Hahahaha

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

It's difficult for everyone, Alex! As far as I'm aware there's nothing exactly like phrasal verbs in other languages (if anyone knows more and can enlighten me on this, I'd be interested to hear about it). So, they're a big challenge for people from all over the world.

[@alexdclopes1973]

The phenomenon of phrasal verbs occurs a little in the Portuguese language. It is more common in colloquial Portuguese spoken here in Brazil. Example: "Não quero mais saber de você! Cai fora!". Verbo cair + advérbio fora (cair fora = sair, retirar-se) I don’t want to know about you anymore! Get out! ". Verb to fall + adverb out (cair fora = leave, get out); -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Depois de ter sido xingada, ela partiu para cima dele com uma faca." Verbo partir + advérbio para cima (partir para cima = atacar algo ou alguém). "After she was cursed, she went off with a knife at him." Verb To Go + adverb. Up. (partir para cima = attack someone or something). Sorry for my poor english....I'm just a beginner!

[@alexdclopes1973]

also...verb to go away, to leave...

Hello I can hear Maria saying 'ofTen, an Daniel saying 'of(t)en (the 't' isn't heard). (The same way it sounds [isn't sound] in 'listen'). Isn't Daniel's way the correct one, and... isn't it odd to hear two people teaching the same language, on the same video, uttering slowly and clearly the same word differently?

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Great question, Naftali! This is a difference in native English speakers' pronunciation. 'Often' is pronounced both with the 't' sound and without the 't' sound. This is a person-by-person preference, and not necessarily specific to one accent. Both are acceptable.
