TO RENEW
TO RENEW: meaning and examples
Good morning / afternoon / evening everyone, depending on when you are reading this. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin.
Before presenting today's content, I wanted to remind you that yesterday's word (urge) has nothing to do with the Spanish verb "urgir." In English "urgir" would be "to be urgent."
Today's word is: to renew (verb)
In means: to arrange for something to continue for a longer time.
We usually use this verb when we talk about extending an expiry date for official documents, memberships or subscriptions.
Example 1:
My passport expires next year, so I must remember to renew it.
Example 2:
Every two years we have to renew our credit line with the bank.
NOTE! The translation of renew is "renovar" in Spanish. The word renovate also exists in English but it means to repair or improve something that is old.
To get some extra practice, I encourage you to create your own original sentence with this verb. You can post your sentence on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter) and we will give you feedback as soon as possible.
I hope you have a great day!
