Learners questioned.

And don't forget, at the end of this episode there's a full summary slide, so make sure to check it out.

Off can be a proposition of position or movement.

It is the opposite off on.

So we put something on the table or we take it off the table, for example.

I got on the bus and took off my clothes.

Then the bus drivers shouted at me.

So I put on my clothes and I got off.

The bus off can mean near, depending on the context on, we often combine it with the wood.

Just for example, I live on an island just off the coast of England.

My house is just off English Avenue.

Okay, let's stop for a second so I can tell you about the learner's questions.

Playlist.

All of the episodes of learners questions in one easy to use place.

If you have a question, maybe the answer is there already.

So go check if you have a question for learners questions.

There's the email learning dot English at BBC dot co dot UK.

And don't forget at the end of this video, there is a full summary slide off can describe a time not at work or school, usually because of illness, unusual circumstances or a holiday and note.

We do not say off from work or school, just off work or school.

One proposition is enough.

For example, John's ill.

So he's off school today.

It's a good thing we're all off next week.

He can recover during the holiday.

We also have lots of expressions with off.

If you're off color, you're ill.

If you're off balance, you're not ready.

If you're off duty, you're not working on.

You can do something on the off chance, which means you do something just in case.

Something that you hope for happens For example, on the off chance that your flight arrives early, I will come to the airport early to meet you.

Finally off is used in lots of froze all verbs.

So here are three.

If you put something off, you postpone it.

If you polish off food, you eat it really quickly on.

If you knock off, you finish work.

For example.

That's the end of this learners questions video.

It's time for me to knock off.

Thank you very much for your question, Thomas.

I hope the answer was useful.
