“Get Over” Hi!  Let’s explore the phrasal verb “get over.” It has two main meanings. First, to recover from something, like an illness or a breakup. For example, “It took me weeks to get over the flu.” Second, it can mean to accept or move past something difficult. 
“She couldn’t get over how amazing the concert was.”

Episode 6:
"Put Off... Like Laundry"
Today on “Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild”, we’re talking about everyone’s favourite phrasal verb: “put off”.
When you “put off” something, you’re delaying it. You know, like when you “put off” doing laundry until you have literally no clothes left.
Or when you “put off” studying until the night before the exam, because who needs sleep anyway, right?

Ep.6: "Put Off... Like Laundry"  

"Run Into... a Surprise!" 

Welcome back to *Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild! 

Today, let’s “run into”… “run into”.
 
To *run into* someone means to meet them by surprise.

Maybe you’re sneaking out for a late-night treat, only to “run into” an ex at the bar.

Awkward.

But it’s not just people—you can also “run into” issues, like “running into” last-minute work emails when you’re ready to unwind.

Basically, whether it’s unexpected people or problems, you never know when you’ll “run into” something.

Catch you next time—and maybe you’ll “run into” me instead!

Ep.5 "Run Into ... a Surprise!" 

When your car stops working, it’s not just having a bad day; it’s had a "breakdown"

But hey, it happens to people too! When you’re totally stressed out

and start crying in the grocery store because they’re out of your favourite ice cream flavour
that’s a "breakdown" too!

But don’t worry, you’re not alone. Whether it’s your car or your emotions, just remember:

we all break down sometimes. But please, try not to do it over ice cream flavour .

See you next time, hopefully in one piece! 

"Break Down, But Keep It Together"

Today we’re talking about "Look after"

It sounds responsible, right? If you "look after" something, you’re taking care of it. You know, like when you "look after" a friend’s cat. But let’s be honest, you probably just fed it, gave it water, and then spent three hours watching Netflix

Ep.3: "Look After... But Not Too Closely"

Today on “Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild”, we’re talking about “give up” and “give in”. They might sound similar, but trust me, they’re totally different!
