Hey everybody - listen up! Do you know what that means? Telling people to "listen up" means you want them to pay attention. This is an example of a phrasal verb being used as a command. Another one you probably know is "Watch out!" - we use this when we want to warn somebody about danger.
Today I'll teach you 20 phrasal verbs that are often used as commands, and what they mean. Phrasal verbs like these are so common in everyday English, but they can be a little hard to learn because they're all so similar – back off, back out, back up, back away, etc.
That's why I created the Phrasal Verbs in Conversation Course – to help you learn them in a natural way, by studying conversations. You'll learn more than 500 phrasal verbs inside this course, and I think you'll really enjoy it.
