Do you need a pick-me-up? I’m not being a show-off when I say that our little online get-togethers like this podcast are probably good for your English. Thanks for tuning in! Let me start with a quick question. Have you ever heard someone say, “We’re having a little get-together this weekend”? Or maybe, “I could really use a pick-me-up”? You might think, wait a second – isn’t get a verb? Isn’t get together a phrasal verb? Yep - but when we add a hyphen and use it as a noun, it becomes something totally different. Today, we’re going to look at these kinds of phrases that native speakers use all the time, but they don’t always show up in grammar books. These are called phrasal nouns and for today’s lesson, we’re going to see how those verbs become nouns, and how we use them in conversation. Watch video versions of the Happy English Podcast on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@HappyEnglishNY/podcasts" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.youtube.com/@HappyEnglishNY/podcasts</a>Build Vocabulary With My Free Vocabulary Workshop: <a href="https://learn.myhappyenglish.com/vocabulary-workshop-signup" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://learn.myhappyenglish.com/vocabulary-workshop-signup</a>
