My name is Jack and I am one of the hosts of the podcast, and today I'm doing a solo episode. I'm without social. However, we have an interesting lesson for you today. It is a continuation of.00:00:53발표자 2Our last two quick tip episodes where we are unpacking the meanings.00:01:01발표자 2Of phrasal verbs, which can be kind of confusing in English, phrasal verbs are where we use usually a verb and a preposition together, and it has a kind of new meaning to it. So there are quite a few in English, and it's good to be familiar with these, so that.00:01:23발표자 2You know when you hear people use them, you.00:01:26발표자 2Understand what they're saying, or if you want to express yourself in a way that.00:01:30발표자 2Is a little bit.00:01:31발표자 2More specific and you wanna articulate a point that is.00:01:37발표자 2It's clearer than this may be a good solution for you. So our first one is our first phrasal verb is to live in, to live in, and this one's pretty easy to live in, means to reside in the place, especially a permanent or long term resident.00:02:00발표자 2For example, they live in a small cottage by the beach.00:02:07발표자 2Yeah. And you know, where do you live? You know? And it's not just live, but like I live in.00:02:15발표자 2So you would probably want to add like if somebody says.00:02:21발표자 2You know.00:02:24발표자 2Where do you live? Do you live in a house or an apartment? You could say. Well, I live in an apartment in whatever city in New York City I live in an apartment in New York City.00:02:38발표자 2Pretty. Ohh, that's great. OK, where do you live? Well, I live in a studio apartment in Brooklyn. OK, interesting. Interesting. But notice how we're using the verb.00:02:56발표자 2Ohh sorry, we're using the proposition in after the verb live live in you know. Where do you live? I I live in Mexico.00:03:07발표자 2OK.00:03:09발표자 2Yeah, because in meaning in that country, in that apartment, in that neighborhood I live in, I live in Brooklyn. I live in Manhattan. I live in Mexico City. I live in Colorado. I live in Los Angeles.00:03:29발표자 2These are are very common expressions in so and so you should get used to using that together live in live in where do you live? I live in. I live in Stillwater. I live in White Bear Lake. I live in North Saint Paul.00:03:47발표자 2That's where I live.00:03:49발표자 2#2.00:03:55발표자 2They live in a small sorry I read this one already. Sorry #2 live 4 live 4.00:04:07발표자 2OK, this is to have a strong passion or desire for something. What do you live for? Like, what is your?00:04:18발표자 2Number one priority, who do you you know? Who do you live for? What do you live for? What is your?00:04:25발표자 2Obsession, you know, I'm. I'm trying to think of a an example.00:04:32발표자 2What's a good example of somebody that lives for something?00:04:37발표자 2I'm trying to.00:04:38발표자 2Think of some like sports athletes and.00:04:45발표자 2Well, let's just for the lack of of a better example here. Let's talk about messy, OK?00:04:54발표자 2What does messian live for?00:04:56발표자 2If you had to choose one thing, what?00:04:58발표자 2Does he live for?00:05:00발표자 2He lives for football.00:05:02발표자 2OK, it consumes 90% of his life.00:05:09발표자 2You know, he sees his family sometimes, but really he lives for football, lives for football. And here's an example.00:05:21발표자 2To have a strong passion or desire for something.00:05:27발표자 2Example. She lives for adventure and is always seeking new experiences, so maybe for her every time there's a holiday from school or from work, she jumps on a plane and she travels somewhere because what is her passion? What does she live?00:05:47발표자 2Or she lives for traveling.00:05:51발표자 2She lives for adventure.00:05:55발표자 2OK, So what do you live for? What do you live for?00:05:59발표자 2Gotta think of what I live for these days. I live for podcasting. I mean, that's the reality. I every minute of my day that I have any extra time. I'm in my office, I'm editing podcasts. I'm recording podcasts.00:06:17발표자 2I live for podcasts. Yeah, this is true. This is true.00:06:23발표자 2Uh. All right, let's do #9 live down, live down LIVEDOWN.00:06:35발표자 2Live down means to overcome or recover from an embarrassing or shameful situation.00:06:45발표자 2Example, it took him 10 years to live down the embarrassment of that awkward speech, so maybe he gave a speech.00:06:57발표자 2And he forgot all the words.00:07:00발표자 2So he was just doing a speech. Hello. My. My name is Jack. And today I'm going to talk.00:07:11발표자 2Talk about.00:07:13발표자 2Talk about. I can't remember what I was gonna talk about. Yeah, that's an unmitigated disaster, right? If you forget everything that you're going to talk about, that it's going to take you a while to live down the shame.00:07:34발표자 2The embarrassment and you know, as we say in English, time heals all wounds, right? So 10 years later, no one is gonna care about his bad speech. But maybe for the first six months.00:07:51발표자 2His colleagues might make fun of him and.00:07:54발표자 2Make a joke, you know.00:07:57발표자 2It's possible it's possible.00:08:01발표자 2And so.00:08:03발표자 2To live down something is to overcome or recover from an embarrassing or shameful situation. Example it took him years to live down the embarrassment.00:08:18발표자 2Of that awkward speech. So the first two years, every time he thought about that speech, he blushed. You know, his face turned red and he was embarrassed. But after 10 years, you just kind of go ohh, whatever. Who cares?00:08:38발표자 2You know, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.00:08:42발표자 2It's not that important, but when things are fresh in our minds, we definitely like to think about it a lot and obsess about it and feel bad about it. But don't.00:08:58발표자 2Nobody cares, right? People will forget it immediately and you don't need to. No one will think about it more than you think about it.00:09:09발표자 2OK, think about that.00:09:11발표자 2No one will think about your bad speech more.00:09:16발표자 2Then you think about it yourself. OK, so if you can take that power away from it and forgive yourself, you'll be much happier. #10 live up to live up to it means to enjoy life to the fullest.00:09:37발표자 2Often by indulging in enjoyable activities or experiences.00:09:43발표자 2Have you ever met a couple that want to live it up?00:09:48발표자 2You know, they go skydiving and parachuting and parasailing and surfing and traveling and.00:09:56발표자 2They're just all over the world living it up, just having a great time together to live it up.00:10:07발표자 2Are you a livid up kind of person, or are you a Super Saver? Do you want to save up with your husband and wife and buy a house? No vacations, maybe have some children? What is your?00:10:25발표자 2Objective for when you have some money, when you have some money, when you're earning some money, what do you want to do with your money?00:10:36발표자 2And remember that the meaning of phrasal verbs can sometimes be idiomatic and context dependent, so it's important to consider the context in which they are used to fully understand their intended meanings. So.00:10:55발표자 2You know, again, these are not like 100%.00:10:58발표자 2Went black and white. Some of them are idiomatic expressions and they might be used a little differently. Pay attention when you're talking to native speakers so that you can also use these in a more colloquial X extemporal.00:11:19발표자 2My brain is, yeah.00:11:24발표자 2I don't know if that's the right word. Improvisational. I don't know. Manner so that you can actually use these. You know, these are very common in in American culture. So I think these are good to learn.
