Ohhhh phrasal verbs :( :(.
Sometimes it's so hard to memorize them or even understand their meaning, isn't?
According to Aaron, from Phrase Mix, "You have to learn phrasal verbs if you want to sound natural in English. English speakers use phrasal verbs all the time. They give our language color and life." (Aaron also teaches a new way to learn them, which by the way, it´s great. I´m going to try it. Click here to check it out. \o/ \o/ \o/)
Many times I used to be frustrated for not mastering this topic. :( :( But yesterday, I changed my mind. :) :) . I figured out that even Americans mix them up!! Yeah... it´s true!! Take a look at this funny video from Josh Sundquist (a Paralympian, a bestselling author and motivational speaker who has an amazing youtube channel).
Before watch the video, if you don´t know what "pull up" means, here it comes:
Phrasal Verb: Pull up
Meaning: Slow and stop a car
Example: The cab PULLED UP outside my house and I got out.
