TRANSCRIÇÃO DO PODCAST

Hello and welcome to inglês que vc usa. My name is Marcelo and I’m making this podcast for you to learn or revise English vocabulary. You can find a transcript of this podcast on the podcast description ou na descrição do podcast.. Today, I want to focus on some A2 phrasal verbs that you can use when you are going shopping.

I’m going to present this language through a short dialogue and then I’ll look at each of the phrasal verbs and then you can listen to the dialogue again.

The phrasal verbs I’m going to focus on today are: 
pop in; look for; pick up; shop around; set you back; look out for; sell out; queue up; try something on; and take something back

When you listen to the dialogue, try to notice these phrasal verbs.

Jack: Are you doing anything this afternoon?
John: Yes – I was going to pop into town to do a bit of shopping.
John: Oh yes? Are you looking for anything in particular?
John: Well, it’s my sister’s birthday next week so I wanted to pick up something for her. She likes Ugg boots, but they are a bit pricey so I like to shop around.
John: Yeah – they can set you back a bit.
John: I know. I’m always looking out for a bargain. When there’s a sale on, you can sometimes find a pair that aren’t too expensive.
John: But they do sell out quickly. You’ll be lucky to find a pair today.
John: I know. I may try and find her something else.
John: What about some gloves from that new leather shop?
John: That’s not a bad idea, I’m sure she’d like some of those. The only thing is the shop is always so busy.
John: I know, it’s always packed in there.
John: And it takes so long to pay. You always have to queue up for ages.
John: And do you know her size? It’s a bit risky buying gloves without trying them on.
John: Yeah, but she can always take them back and exchange them if they don’t fit her.

 OK – did you hear all of the phrasal verbs?

The first was to pop in or pop into. To pop in means to visit something quickly, just for a short visit. It’s informal and implies that the visit was not planned a long time before. If you are walking through town and see something in a shop window that you like the look of, you might just pop in to see it. We use pop in without an object. I was walking past and decided to pop in. If you say the place, you can use pop into. I decided to pop into the pub for a quick pint on my way home from work. You can also pop round which means to make an unplanned visit to someone’s house. For example: I’m going to pop round my dad’s later to ask to borrow his camera.

The second phrasal verb is look for. If you are looking for something, you are trying to find something. In a shopping context, it means you want to buy something. So you could visit a music shop and tell the assistant that you are looking for the new album by … your favourite band.

To pick up something in the context of shopping means to buy something. This is a separable phrasal verb so you can pick something up and pick up something. It is quite informal and so we normally use it for small purchases that don’t require a lot of planning. I might pick up a small treat for the kids or I might pick up some milk if we have run out. However, pick up can also mean collect so if you buy a new car, you might have to order it and then go and pick it up later. To shop around means to look in different shops to find the best price or best option. As different shops sell things for more or less money, you can shop around, you compare prices and find the cheapest deal. You can shop around in the town centre or you can shop around online if you can compare prices on different online stores. I like finding a bargain online so probably spend too much time shopping around.

Top Five Things Kids Commonly Say in English

As parents, we have all heard our children say certain things more than others. Kids have a unique way of speaking, and there are some common phrases that you will hear them say repeatedly. In this article, we will go over the top five things that kids commonly say in English.

"Are We There Yet?"

This is a phrase that you will hear often when traveling with kids. They are very impatient and curious, and when on a long journey, they want to know when they will arrive at their destination. It is also common for kids to ask, "How much longer?"

"I'm Bored"

Despite having many toys and games, children often complain about being bored. This phrase is commonly heard on weekends or during school holidays. It is important for parents to encourage children to find creative ways to entertain themselves.

"I'm Hungry"

Kids always seem to be hungry, especially teenagers. They are growing and require a lot of energy to function throughout the day. It is also common for them to ask, "What's for lunch?" or "What's for supper?"

"I Can't Find My..."

Kids tend to misplace their belongings, such as toys, books, or stationery. As parents, it can be frustrating to constantly hear them say, "I can't find my..." or "Have you seen my...?" However, it is important to remain calm and help them locate their lost items.

"I Dunno"

When kids are asked a question and do not know the answer, they often respond with "I dunno." This phrase is a shortened version of "I do not know." As adults, we feel the need to know everything, but for kids, it is perfectly acceptable to not know the answer to everything.

In conclusion, these are the top five things that kids commonly say in English. Kids have a unique way of speaking, and these phrases are just some of the common things you will hear from them. As parents, it is important to understand and encourage our children's language development while also providing guidance and support.
