You need to learn them like any other vocabulary words.So, here are 10 new phrasal verbs that you can add in your word stock to bring a difference in your speaking, which will sound more natural, like a native speaker.These phrasal are commonly used by the trainers of the IELTS institute
Alright , so let’s get started.
Carry On
So, the first phrasal verb is “carry on.” It means ‘continue’.
When someone asks you “What are you doing?” after hearing your answer that person will say, “Oh, Ok then carry on, continue with what you are doing now.”
The phrase “carry on” is a bit shorter, rapid, and you are going to hear this as people use this a lot.
Hold On
This you might hear as an exclamation, someone telling you “hold on a second, please!” So, this means wait.
For example, you’re talking on the phone with someone, maybe you’re talking on the phone with your mother, and you are cooking something at the same time. And suddenly you come to know that the food is burning, you’ll say “hold on, mom, I have to take the food off now, I’ll be right back with you.”
So, you can use this in any situation where you tell someone to wait. you can learn more phrasal verbs and where we use these verbs in IELTS institute.
Come Up With
Ok, the next phrasal verb is “come up with.” So, you come up with something, what is the meaning of this now?
So, come up with something is to invent something, or to think about something means to create a solution.
Likewise, if you have some sort of problem, and you don’t know its solution, you say “oh, I’ll come up with something to figure this out.”
Get Along
Get along with someone means that you have a good relationship with them.
Anyway, If somebody solicits you "What's your opinion of him?"then you will say, “Yes, I like him as I get along well with him.”
Because you like the way he lives as the same as you but if there is something you don’t like about him then you can say, “I don’t like him as I don’t get along with him.”Learn how to use get along phrasal verb in detail at IELTS institute.
