Phrasal Verb Opposites in English
What’s the opposite ofpick up? How about stay up? In this very important English vocabulary lesson, I look at several phrasal verbs and their opposites. Do you think you know phrasal verbs? Find out by clicking on the play button! Most nouns have an opposite. Phrasal verbs also have opposites, and it’s important to know them. Some of the phrasal verb pairs in this lesson include: pick up & drop off, get on & get off, get in & get out, turn up & turn down, and more. These are some of the most commonly used phrasal verbs in English, so make sure you know them by watching this video and then doing the quiz!

Hi Alex,
Thank you so much.
Any time, Nabila. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
A methodic form of learning phrasal verbs, comparing them with its opposite you can remember better their meanings, very interesting with “pick up” and its two opposites “drop off” and “put down”. Thanks a lot, teacher Alex, a very good video class to continue learning English.
Thanks for checking it out. I’m happy to see so many students enjoying this method.
thank you so much

its very useful lesson
I Get 80/100
I have seen a lot of english and american movies and TV-shows but never noticed the pharasal verb turn in had been used as to go to sleep. Instead of that it means to confess in a crime or tell the police or authority about a wrongdoer. Am I right, Alex
I’m definitely not Alex, but yes, that is another meaning of “turn in”!
The difference is that “turn in” as in “tell the police about someone” is transitive—it always has an object. For example, “Whoever turns the thief in will get a reward”, or “You don’t have to wait for the police to arrest you. You can turn yourself in”.
Excellent video, man. I appreciate it. Could you make another one about opposites phrasal verbs, please?
Good Job Sr, I gotcha
nice explanation. please, give some imp phrasal verbs which are used in english movies.
i was wondering if you could probably explain me how to respond positively for negative ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer question.
for example.
Don’t you speak English?
Ans:?
