Hi everybody and welcome back.
2
Today we're going to take another look at the preposition "on" and what it can mean when it's used with phrasal verbs.
3
So in a previous video We saw that on can mean connect.
4
or be connected to something.
5
And we can extend this metaphorically to get the idea of about or regarding.
6
And the reason for this is when we say "about something" or "regarding something" It's just another way to say,
7
connected to something.
8
For example, if I say I read a book about animals.
9
It just means I read a book connected to animals.
10
So to recap: "On" can mean connected to, and connected to can mean about or regarding.
11
So let's take a look at some examples of phrasal verbs that use "on" in this way.
12
How do you think we could describe this using a phrasal verb with "on" in which "on" means about or regarding?
13
Here, a woman says something nice to a man about his hat.
14
So we can say: The woman compliments the man on his hat.
15
Compliments means say something nice, And on means about.
16
So the sentence just means: The woman says something nice to the man about his hat.
17
Okay, let's try another one.
18
How do you think we could describe this using a phrasal verb with on?
19
Here, a committee votes, regarding a proposal.
20
So we can say, The committee votes on the proposal.
21
Votes means vote.
22
and on means regarding.
23
So the sentence just means: the committee votes regarding the proposal.
24
Alright, let's try one more.
25
How do you think we could describe this?
26
you Here,
27
a bartender makes a drink, but adds an insufficient amount of rum to it.
28
So we can say, The bartender skimps on the rum.
29
Skimps means use an insufficient amount and on means regarding.
30
So the sentence can be understood as meaning The bartender uses an insufficient amount regarding the rum.
31
you So,
32
I hope this helped you understand the preposition "on" a little bit better, and why it can sometimes mean "about" or "regarding".
33
and we'll see you next time.
34
Cheers.

生活中的实用场景:用"on"表达"关于"的短语动词

想象一下,你想夸朋友的新帽子,讨论委员会对提案的投票,或者吐槽 bartender 调的酒 rum 加太少——这些日常场景里,英语其实藏着一个好用的规律:短语动词中的"on"常表示"关于"或"涉及"。就像视频里说的,"connected to"(关联)的隐喻延伸,让"on"有了"about"的含义。掌握这个规律,你就能更自然地用英语描述生活小事啦!

必学实用表达&搭配

  • compliment sb. on sth.:夸某人某事(比如"她夸他的帽子"就是"She compliments him on his hat")
  • vote on sth.:对某事投票("委员会对提案投票"即"The committee votes on the proposal")
  • skimp on sth.:在某事上吝啬("bartender 少加 rum"可以说"The bartender skimps on the rum")
  • comment on sth.(拓展):评论某事("他对电影发表看法"是"He comments on the movie")
  • focus on sth.(拓展):专注于某事("我们专注于项目"即"We focus on the project")

现在就来挑战影子跟读!

想要快速掌握这些表达?试试英语影子跟读(shadow speech)吧!这是提高英语发音和口语流畅度的好方法。你可以这样做:打开视频,播放一句暂停,跟着重复,注意模仿语气和节奏。比如视频里的例句:"The woman compliments the man on his hat." 先听一遍,再跟着读,感受"on"在这里的轻读和整体语调。完成3句后,试着用学到的短语动词描述生活场景,比如"我夸妈妈的厨艺"(I compliment my mom on her cooking)。坚持5分钟,你会发现自己的口语更自然了!

看YouTube学英语就是这么简单——从日常场景中抓规律,用影子跟读练发音,慢慢积累,你会越来越棒!下次遇到"on"表示"关于"的情况,记得想起今天学的短语哦~

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
