Easy English Expression, rehashed.
Hello, everybody. My name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions.
Come on, let's master English.
Coach Shane here. How's your Sunday going?
My day is actually going pretty good.
And the big reason is I turned in early last night.
Check out today's expression.
Let's go back in time.
We have a great expression today.
To turn in. It's a phrasal verb.
T -U -R -N -I -N. To turn in.
So one definition of turn in is to give your work or your assignment to your boss or to your teacher.
So if you've been working on a proposal or working on a report and you give it to your boss or your teacher, you are turning it in to turn in.
Another definition of turn in is to go to sleep.
So what time do you turn in?
Me, I usually turn in about 11 p .m.
I usually go to bed at around 11 p .m.
Tonight I'm feeling pretty tired, so I'm going to turn in early.
So turn in as a phrasal verb is a very useful verb and I want you to practice this expression, but first let's listen to a dialogue.
Did you turn in the assignment?
Yes, now I'm free. So what are you going to do?
I'm going to turn in early tonight.
I'm tired. There you go.
Did you turn in the assignment?
So this might be a student, maybe a worker.
I don't know. And yes, he did and he's free.
Now he has no stress.
His work, his homework is done.
He's free. So his friend asks, what are you going to do?
But did you hear the pronunciation?
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
What are you? What are you?
What are you going to do?
Going to do. What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?
Yeah, that's real daily English pronunciation in America.
You need to learn that pronunciation.
So what are you going to do?
And what does the guy says?
I'm going to turn in early tonight.
I'm going to go to bed early tonight.
I'm tired and that's me.
I'm tired. Yeah. My weekends are busy times for me.
So Monday is my light day, but as many of you know, I do another podcast on Monday.
It's called Let's Master English.
So, uh, so if you want to listen to that podcast, you're more than welcome.
Okay. Before I turn in, let's listen to that dialogue two more times.
Did you turn in the assignment?
Yes. Now I'm free. So what are you going to do?
I'm going to turn in early tonight.
I'm tired. Did you turn in the assignment?
Yes. Now I'm free. So what are you going to do?
I'm going to turn in early tonight.
