Hey Naturals, it's me Gabby from gonaturalenglish .com, your American English fluency coach.
I have a theory to share with you today that because of the internet, we have access to so many more opportunities, but also, there's so much more competition out there.
If you're applying for a job or another opportunity maybe to study or to do an internship, there's so much more competition because people around the world can apply for these opportunities from anywhere and so it is key to stand out.
To stand out means to be different, to make people notice you.
Today we're talking about phrasal verbs like this one, to stand out, that use the word out.
A great way that you can stand out is to really master the use of English and use phrasal verbs like this one.
Teacher Diana is going to show you how, but I want to also mention that when you're ready to practice what you're learning here, that you practice with my favorite pronunciation app called Elsa Speak.

Hi, I'm Diane from gonaturalenglish .com, your personal English coach and motivator.

Phrasal verbs can be very confusing but they are very crucial to your English fluency.
Being able to master phrasal verbs can get you a step closer to becoming a fluent native English speaker and it is one of the accomplishments that I think had the most trouble with but the most rewarding of the accomplishments because it is a little bit difficult.
Today we're going to learn phrasal verbs with the word out in it and I encourage you to stick around to the end of the video so we can do a little quiz to test and see what you have learned today.
And if you like these English chips that help you become fluent faster, don't forget to give this video a thumbs up and don't forget to subscribe.
Also don't forget to check out our ebook and our Go Natural English fluency course at gonaturalenglish .com.
First let's do a quick refresher as to what a phrasal verb is.
A phrasal verb is a verb plus a preposition and it can have several meanings depending on the phrasal verb.
It's always important to pay attention to the context in which the phrasal verb is found and you will have the clues that you need to understand the meaning of the phrasal verb.
And here are my top 50 phrasal verbs with the word out with some examples.
Follow along with me and repeat after me if you can.
Pause the video and practice your pronunciation.
Fill out. It means to complete a form.
So maybe you are at school and you need to fill out an application for your parking pass or something.
You will hear the word fill out.
Please fill out the form at reception.
You have to fill out an application to apply.
Find out. It means to discover something.
You may have heard me using a lot of these phrasal verbs.
The next time you watch my videos or Gabby's videos, Luke's videos, or Ryan's videos, pay attention to these phrasal verbs and you'll be able to learn a lot more than just watching a video about phrasal verbs.
Examples with find out.
My sister found out she's pregnant.
He found out a better way to study.
Found out it's always in a way of oh you found out something.
You discovered something new.
Something that you didn't know before.
Stand out. To be unique or easy to point to.
She stood out at the party with her new dress.
Your application stood out because of your skills.
Notice how the examples are used in the pass form.
Notice how I've talked about to stand out in the past tense because that's mainly how you would use that.
You're talking about something in the past.
Someone or something stood out to you.
So most of the time that's how you will hear it.
You will hear it in the pass form which is stood up.
Bring out. To make more obvious.
That blouse brings out the blue in your eyes.
She brings out the best in me.
And this is when you say somebody brings out the best in you.
Is when you're around somebody that maybe makes you feel good, makes you want to do good.
You can say this person brings out the best in me.
I am the best when I am with this person.
Break out. To escape or release.
The prisoners broke out of the cell.
It's important to break out of their routine.
To break out can also be talked about in the sense of our skin when we break out.
We can also say I am breaking out meaning you have a lot of pimples.
Your skin is breaking out so it is releasing something so that's why we say oh I'm breaking out.
You can say I'm breaking out.
So meaning that you have there are pimples in your face because of stress or something and that's how you could phrase that or express that.
Pass out. To faint or to give.
I almost passed out at the gym.
I'm going to pass out the homework.
You'll hear pass out mainly in school when somebody's passing out papers, passing out the homework, passing out the test.
That's how you would hear that word pass out.
But again we have to look at the context when we are looking at these phrasal verbs that have multiple meanings.
Just listen closely to what surrounds the phrasal verb so you can get a clue as to what it means.
Make out. To understand the meaning of something or to kiss.
I can't make out what is going on at work.
Like you can't understand what's happening at work.
Sam made out with John at the party because it's happened before.
It's in the past so they made out.
It just means like you kiss somebody intensely.
It's not just a little kiss but it's more of like a longer kiss if you will.
Cut out. To eliminate.

You need to cut out those friends.
They are not good for you.

You backed out. You're not doing something anymore.
Check out. To investigate or to look at someone.
I need to check out that new restaurant in town.
He checked out the waitress because she was pretty.
So in that context when someone checks somebody out it means that they're interested in them.

Black out. To lose consciousness.
He blacked out from having terrible headaches.
I black out when I speak in front of a big crowd.
Leave out. To not include.

Sometimes it means that when you say I left out you're like oh I forgot or you intentionally didn't write something down and when it means to not include it also means to not feel included.
So you can say I felt left out or Stacy felt left out because left out of the conversation.
Left out of a trip or whatever.
It just means to not feel included.
Try out. To test something.
I'm going to try out a new gym.
I'll try out new recipes for dinner.
Walk out. To leave.
Some employees walked out because of low pay.
She walked out of the date because he was rude.
And this means mainly when you are leaving somewhere to protest something or because you're upset because you're not happy with a situation.
You just say I'm walking out.
I'm leaving. So sometimes you might say that like I'm walking out of this conversation.
I'm walking out of this job.
You are leaving for a big reason to protest something.
Stay out or stay in.
Stay out is to not return home and stay in to stay home.
