Welcome to www.engvid.com. I'm Adam. In today's video, I'm going to talk to you about some phrasal verbs, but the phrasal verbs we're going to look at are actually very useful for business situations. Whether you work in an office or for some big company, you're going to probably hear or even use a lot of these phrasal verbs. So, again, just to review, a phrasal verb is a verb in connection, in conjunction with a preposition, and together, the two words mean something other than the individual words, in most cases. Again, remember that phrasal verbs often have more than one meaning, but I'm just going to give you the business context meanings for each of these phrasal verbs. So, we're going to look at "deal with", "get ahead", "bring up", "think through", "point out", "chip in" or "pitch in", they actually mean the same thing, "put off", "count on", "do something over", I left a blank, here, because you're usually going to put a word noun in between, "end up", "sort out", "go up against", "ask around", and "spell out". Okay? So, these are the phrasals. So, let's start with "deal with". When you deal with something, you basically have to face it and manage it, whatever it is. It could be a situation, it could be a problem, it could be a schedule, etc. So, managers and CEOs of companies have to deal with many problems throughout their work day and the work week. So, when you deal with something, you're able to handle it, there's another word for it, "handle" is "deal with". You can make sure that you do what is necessary to do to accomplish your goal or fix whatever problem you have. Okay? When you "get ahead", that's the next one. Get ahead, in terms of promotion and advancement, that's when we use this. So, if you work for a company, you don't want to stay in the same position for many years. You work really hard, that way you can get ahead. Get ahead means get a higher position or get more money or be transferred to a different location where you can do more work. So, get ahead, in terms of business, get a promotion, advance, progress, etc. Bring up. So, when you bring something up, you're introducing it into the conversation. Okay? So, while I'm making my presentation, if you have any ideas you'd like to bring up, please do so. Right? So, say it. Introduce it into the conversation and then we can discuss it a little bit more. Again, all of these are just the business context. There are other meanings to these phrasal verbs. Think through. Usually, think something through or think through a problem, for example. So, you can have something in between or something after this phrasal verb. So, when you think through something or you think something through, you consider it, you work through it very, very carefully. It's very similar to what the actual words mean, but again, the main idea here is that you're looking at something very carefully before you make a decision, before you take an action, etc. So, for example, think through your options before you decide where to invest your money. Okay? Think through the proposition very carefully before you sign the contract, etc. Lots of different examples you can use it for. "Point out". So, if somebody points out something or points something out, they are calling attention to it. So, somebody's giving a speech and you put up your hand and you say, "Yeah, I'd like to point out that _______", right? So, you're bringing attention or you're... You can say it's a little similar to "bring up". Point out, you're pointing to something specifically, you're introducing something specific into the conversation. Okay? So, you point it out. […]
