Phrasal Verb Story

by Real English Conversations

Phrasal Verb Transcription

Jennifer was at the market and she decided to ask about (inquire about) a painting that was for sale. She walked up (approached on foot) to the painting, put on (to wear) her glasses and really started zoning in (focusing) on the detail. The person that was selling it noticed she was interested and asked if she had any questions. She wanted to know when he took up (started the hobby) painting because the work was amazing.


After telling the artist how much she liked the painting, she decided to bargain for (ask for a deal) a slightly better price than the $500 it was advertised for. She asked if he would be up for (willing) accepting an offer of $400 for the painting.


The artist put on (acted) like the painting took more than 300 hours to complete and how it took up (used time) a lot of his time to paint it. Jennifer only had $400, so she told the artist she couldn’t buy it right then. He finally decided to take her up (accept) on the offer and he sold the painting.

I wanted to tell you that my elder 6-year-old son and I find your phrasal verbs podcasts very useful! We particularly like that each lesson gives sample sentences with both the phrasal verb and an alternative wording. It appears to me that this makes it easier for the brain to retain the uses of a new phrasal verb, as the new phrasal verb gets linked in the brain not only to the context and the definition but also to the alternative way to get across the same meaning of the whole sentence.
