LOOK AFTER / PICK UP (PHRASAL VERBS)

Hello everyone and happy Friday! Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin! I hope you've had a good week.

Today we include our last lesson of the week about daily routines with common English phrasal verbs.

Today's first phrasal verb for routines is: to look after

Meaning: To take care of someone or something.

Example 1: When my father-in-law was in hospital, I went to my in-laws' house to look after my mother-in-law.

Example 2: She loves to look after her nieces and nephews at the weekend.

Today's second phrasal verb for routines is: to pick up

Meaning: To collect someone or something.

Example 3: I remember when my son was a child I used to pick him up after school every day.

Example 4: Rich, can you pick up the dry cleaning on your way home from work?

Do you have children or other family members that you look after every day? Or perhaps you have the responsibility to pick up your kids or someone else during the day. As we always suggest, to get some extra practice, we encourage you to write answers to my questions on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter/X) and we will give you feedback as soon as we can.

We'll be back on Monday with more Daily Vitamins. Have an excellent weekend! 

All the best!
