0:07 In this lesson we will study the following phrasal verbs: call off, fill up, hang up and hold up.
0:23 Hey, Jack. What are you doing?
0:26 Nothing much. Just wrapping up some work and I’ll call the day off.
0:29 Oh. Good thing you’re not too busy. I thought about picking you up now.
0:33 But you asked me to call off our movie plans as you had a meeting.
0:37 I had a meeting but the client called it off so I can make it to the movies now
0:41 Excellent news. Give 20 minutes and I’ll be downstairs.
0:54 John, why don’t you take another shopping cart?
0:57 I don’t think so. We don’t need another one unless you’re planning to fill this one up.
1:03 I’m actually planning to fill it up with dry goods. I want another one for vegetables and fruits.
1:09 That makes sense. I’ll be right back with two other carts.
1:13 One more is enough, John.
1:16 No, it’s not. I just remembered the boys are coming over tonight. I’ll fill one up with beer and snacks.
1:31 I called Sam but he hung up on me. He didn't even listen to what I had to say. Why would he hang up like that?
1:38 Did you people have a fight?
1:40 Not exactly. Just a small argument.
1:43 Maybe he just couldn’t talk and that’s why he hung up.
1:46 I hate guys who hang up without saying anything first.
1:59 Jack, where are you? I had to reschedule the meeting because of you.
2:04 I’m sorry, Paul. I got hold up in traffic. It’ll take some time.
2:09 That’s great! Can you please just let me know next time? That way I won't have to hold up our plans because of you.
2:17 I’m awfully sorry. I thought I would make it.
2:22 I’ll call the day off.
2:26 But you asked me to call off our movie plans as you had a meeting.
2:34 I had a meeting but the client called it off.
2:40 I’m actually planning to fill it up with dry goods.
2:47 I’ll fill one up with beer and snacks.
2:53 Why would he hang up like that?
2:57 Maybe he just couldn’t talk and that’s why he hung up.
3:04 I hate guys who hang up without saying anything first.
