1. "Queue up" – Common in British English, but Americans usually say "line up." Saying "queue up" might sound a bit formal or unusual in casual American speech. 2. "Put up (the price)" – Understandable, but Americans usually say "raise the price." "Put up" is more natural in British English. So, Americans might find these phrases a bit unusual but still understandable! 👍

Americans understand "queue up" but do not use the ter nearly as frequently as the British. A more interesting fact is that they don't queue up like the British. For example, at a bus stop, you will see British people queue up to enter the bus. Americans are less likely to do that. They simply form a crowd and push their way onto the bus. The British way is more civilized, I must admit.

To a native British English speaker, no, there's nothing weird about them. In the UK, we prefer the word 'queue' to 'line'. 'We queued up for ages for the cinema.' 'The cinema keeps putting its prices up.' (or ...'putting up its prices.) Why do you think they might sound weird? Just to American English speakers? By the way, we'd say 'I have learned some phrases/phrasal verbs' and 'Does it sound weird to Americans when they hear these phrases/phrasal verbs?' 'Hear of' means to be informed about something or to be aware of the existence of something. e.g. 'Have you ever heard of the Beatles?'
