Talk about ORGANIZING Things with these 13 PRACTICAL Phrasal Verbs

[@CamillusYChan]

Jay and Vickie, you are both wonderful English teachers in your own right, and together the synergy is wonderful! Comparing and contrasting the American to the English accent in your videos is an ingenious idea. It really highlights and emphasizes the two main streams of the English language. Thank you!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Camillus, we really appreciate your endorsement. Thank you so much for watching our videos.

[@cyncha6486]

Great lesson as always. Here I leave an example: You have made excellent, useful videos, unfortunately, I haven't got round to them yet.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Oh great example Cyn! We love it!

[@srdjansww7562]

Hi Guys!☺ You're a very nice! One question: Why haven't anymore our shows with other teachers? It were great! ☺👍

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Srdjan - you mean the English Shows? So glad you liked them! The problem was the quality. We were working with teachers at a distance and their audio would go in and out of synch. And sometimes we couldn't get the stream to start on time which was very frustrating. So after 13 weeks we thought we'd better focus on our normal videos instead. Jay loved it though and maybe one day we'll try it again.

[@srdjansww7562]

Hi Vicki and Jay! Ohhh I'm sorry you have a problem with it! :( I would like to come back! It was your trademark, for me! :)

[@lrlizribeiro]

I spotted only 12: Scattered over Tidy up Laid out Throw out Throw away Sort out Hang up Straighten out Set up Lying around Came across Put away I missed the "got round to". And I thought it meant something like: to finish something, the conclude or make the final adjustments that a task demands (like the video, in this case). But, I was wrong. Actually, it was even simpler. Thanks for explaining.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Great job Leonardo!

[@우진이와친구들-n8l]

Hi Vicki, could you explain the tense used in set up part “Oh, is this a table cloth? Yes, that’s for when we want to set up a restaurant scene.” I’m not clear why you used present tense when something already happened. Thanks a lot!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi. Thanks for the question. In fact I'm talking about the future when I say it's for when we want to set up a restaurant scene. (We'll often use verbs like want, hope, and expect in the present tense to talk about the future. (You might like this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHXWZ2x9jJV0hZI) And in this video about phrasal verbs I meant that we set a restaurant scene in the past, but I expect we'll create more restaurant scenes in the future. Hope that helps.

[@우진이와친구들-n8l]

Simple English Videos Thanks for your detailed explanation. By the way, could you help me one more question that is about ‘any more’ you mentioned in tidy up part ‘I don’t think we need it any more.’ From my understanding of ‘any more’ is about quantity and ‘anymore’ is about time so in this case I think ‘anymore’ is more appropriate. Please feel free to correct anything wrong. Thanks!

[@raed2178]

Let's set up a meeting with Jennifer to make a new collaborative video. I think she would love that. 💝

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Oh we love working with Jennifer, Ra'ed! In fact we have a little series we're planning about British and American English.

[@raed2178]

Simple English Videos That's really wonderful to hear. Thank you, Vicky. 👍✌

[@countertenor5890]

Rachel's boy will like the toy truck when he's older.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Oh, good thinking Counter Terror! In fact he'd probably like it now. We'll pass it along to Stoney!

[@ashubhai1]

Ma'am please make a complete video on phrasal verbs, even if it's a little longer. Phrasal verb is very important for learn English. In my hometown Varanasi there is lot of foreigners come everyday mostly from the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. l really like talking to them and I want to impress them and my dream is to talk like a native speaker.. please help me out

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Yes, a lot of students have difficulty with phrasal verbs. They're very common in English, particularly spoken English. I think we might try to make a book about them.

[@haiderps4]

Great lesson Vicki and Jay ..thank you but I've got two questions that are actually out of the subject they're actually about the modal verb "would " that have been used in this video In the minute 1:56 of the video Jay said " this is a cowboy hat that a criminal cowboy would wear,right?" could you tell me please what's the purpose of using the modal verb "would"v in this sentence above because I'm a little confused whether to use it or the modal verb "will" in the sentence mentioned above? Q2/ in the minute 3:02 of the video Vicki said "sometimes like in a chemist's, or as you wold say , a pharmacy" so we have another "would " In this sentence as well, please tell me what's its function here ? sorry for the inconvenience!

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Haider. Well spotted! In both cases we're using 'would' rather than 'will' because we are speaking hypothetically. If there were a cowboy, he would wear this hat. (But there is no cowboy.) If Jay were saying the word, he would say pharmacy. (But he isn't saying the word. I am.) Hope that helps?

[@haiderps4]

Simple English Videos Yes it helps Thank you Please make a video about the differences between will and would 🙏

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Good idea!

[@sunilkumar-ey9es]

+Simple English Videos , I'm also expecting you will do it as soon as possible

[@steffis4480]

Dear Vicki and Jay, may I ask a question? At the end of your scene when you found the clapperboard you said: "Well, put it away then." And Jay was answering: "I shall." When do you use this expression "I shall"? I know "shall" as something like a stronger version of "should" like in "Shall I help you?" or " Students shall not leave the school grounds without permission." Could you please explain the meaning in the context of your video scene? Sending you lots of love ♥ Steffi

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Stefanie. It's interesting he said that because it's normally only me that uses it that way in our house. Americans use shall a lot less than Brits. We tend to use it in offers and decisions (Shall I put it away for you? or I shall put it away) and also suggestions, of course (Shall we stop now?)

[@steffis4480]

Thank you very much for your reply! 😍♥ This is exactly how I understand the usage of "shall" in English language. That's why I was surprised hearing by Jay's answer to "Put it away then." Does "I shall!" mean something like "Yup, that's what I got to do!" in that context? 🙈

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

You've got it. :-)

[@Theyoutuberpolyglot]

Hang on is like to hold on Let's set up a meeting, shall we? How about to arrange a meeting without the phrasal verb? To set up a business- to start with a business. We are not very tidy Is there a difference between to put something away and to type up something away?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

You can tidy things up or put things away. Tidy up means arrange neatly. Put away means put in the place they should be stored.

[@dmitrytrunikov7305]

These are nice series. But in my opinion it would be better to make them 5..8 minutes length.

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Thanks for sharing that thought Dmitry.

[@ahmedsobhy7960]

That's was amazing. Actually, really feeling sad for you. Because your lesson is better than alot of Chanel in KZbin and you didn't get enough subscriber and viewers. But😀don't worry I'll try to share your lesson as much as I can.💪💪💪💪

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Oh thank you so much for your support, Ahmed. We love it when viewers share our videos and help us grow the channel. THANK YOU! :-)

[@melindavermes5139]

Oh Jay, this wig is ... maybe in a blonde one!😁

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! Funny you should say that Melinda. I want to buy us some more wigs. :-)

[@onurterzi9968]

To be fit means neither weak nor fat for people.What do you think about it? Is there a word connected with this? If I am wrong ,You can correct me

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Fit can have this meaning if you are talking about physical health. It's about being healthy and strong, probably because you do regular physical exercise.

[@onurterzi9968]

Thank you

[@barbarawitkowska4576]

today i read at newspeper that someone from my small town won a lottery ,if i won a lottery i would to go to usa to learn english in your school

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

We don't have a school Barbara, but we hope you'll continue to watch our lessons on KZbin. They're kind of like a school! :-) And good luck in the lottery!

[@gomezfrancisco4577]

First comment! Can i please have a heart?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Wow you're fast scantily clad. Yes, first comment deserves a heart.

[@barbarawitkowska4576]

second comment, can i have a heart,pls

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Ha! Well I'm not sure about that Barbara.... Ha! Just kidding. Of course you can. Thanks for commenting!

[@chloelouise947]

I’m a non native speaker and struggle with how to use the word “period” as it’s often used. All I know is that’s there’s two meanings, please help

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Chloe. In British English I'll use the word 'full stop' to describe the punctuation mark we use at the end of a sentence. Jay call's in a period in American English. In both British and American English period can also refer to a particular amount of time. E.g. The offer is available for a limited period. Which period in history would you have liked to live in?

[@brandonliuq]

Interesting question. Are you a couple?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

Hi Brandon Liu. This is Jay replying to your inquiry. Vicki and I are married. She says I'm a very lucky man :-)

[@luiseduardocople2409]

Were you really a cop?

[@SimpleEnglishVideos]

No Canal, Jay has had a lot of different jobs but he has never been a cop - except when he's playing a part in our videos. :-)

[@luiseduardocople2409]

You are very funny... That makes us learn! 🤣 May I join the grandparents line? 😁
