Send us a textPhrasal Verbs are a challenge to learners of English. They are difficult to master, but learning them is definitely worth the effort. In this episode, which is the first one in the series about Phrasal Verbs,  I recommend looking at them not as a random combinations of verbs and particles, but trying to discover what lies behind such combinations. To illustrate this, we will discover and practise how UP is used in Phrasal Verbs to stress the idea of completing or finishing something.Sentences used as examples:COME INWhat time does your train come in?Short skirts are coming in.COME ROUNDIt took me a long time to come round.Meanings of come round:1. to come to a place, especially somebody's home, to visit for a short time2. to change your opinion3. to become conscious againPhrasal Verbs with UP:tidy updrink upeat upheat uppack updry upuse upheal upOther words and expressions in this episode:the sheer number of something  (The word sheer is used to stress that the size, amount of something is huge. In here, the very number of Phrasal Verbs is huge.) PL: sama liczba / sama ilość czegośdaunting  (Something that is daunting makes you feel slightly afraid or worried about dealing with it.) PL: zniechęcający, przytłaczającyambiguous  (If you describe something as ambiguous, you mean that it is unclear or confusing because it can be understood in a few ways.)
