In today's story, I'll be looking at some B2-level phrasal verbs.
I explain 5 of the phrasal verbs below in the podcast: 1, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10. You can listen to all ten of these phrasal verbs. They are in the order you'll hear them.
1) figure something out - try to find the answer to a problem
2) get on with something - continue an activity you were doing earlier
3) get round to something - do one of the jobs that needs doing but you don't find time for it
4) go down with something - to get ill
5) get over a bad cold etc. - recuperate from an illness
6) live up to your expectations - when something is as good as you expected it to be e.g. a product you bought
7) put somebody up - give temporary accommodation to somebody
8) stick out - something can be seen because it is showing from inside something e.g. a handkerchief sticking out somebody's pocket
9) miss out on an opportunity - lose an opportunity you did not take advantage of
10) Get round to something (repeat of nÂș3)
