Phrasal Verbs & Idioms with WRAP
source: mmmEnglish 2017年12月19日
Read the full transcript of this lesson: https://www.mmmenglish.com/2017/12/20...
In this lesson, you’ll learn new phrasal verbs, idioms and English expressions using the verb WRAP!
These types of words can be difficult to learn because they are often idiomatic (which means that the literal meaning of the individual words is not the same as the meaning of the expression as a whole).
That's why I like to focus on one main word (WRAP) and explore some commonly used expressions that use it!
*phrasal verbs* playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-ktH...
*idioms* playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NynqL...
Phrasal verbs, idioms and expressions in this lesson:
- Wrap up
- Wrap around (or wrap round)
- Wrapped around (one's) finger
- keep (something) under wraps
- That's a wrap!

What you don't know about ADVERBS (The SECRET of ADVERBS - INTERESTING t...
source: Englishing 2017年12月17日
Adverbs are difficult to define. However, what grammar books tell us is that: They are words that modify the meaning of verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, or a whole sentence that is used to show time, manner, degree or place. They are usually made by taking an adjective and adding -ly. But not always ! There are also flat adverbs that do not change. Let's not forget to mention intensifiers and mitigators and what about those intensifiers that are now used in slang like wicked, uber, hella, etc. In this lesson, Marc will talk about all those points and more.
This lesson is intended for intermediate students who wish to improve their English grammar, and for those above levels who wish to clear up doubts about this topic.
