As you know, for October's Phrasal Verb Fridays we have examined three-word phrasal verbs. Today, we complete this month's lessons with the phrasal verb LOOK DOWN ON.

Definition
: To feel superior to someone or something.

Example 1: He looks down on people in the sales department.

Example 2: The rich should not look down on the poor.

Example 3: My mother taught me never to look down on anyone.

This ends our month of lessons about three-word phrasal verbs, and the other themes of October. Tune in next week to see November's themes, including lessons on countable and non-countable nouns, and a new Monday theme: Missing Monday.

Until then, have a great weekend; and Happy Halloween to anyone who is celebrating!
