at the bottom of the PDF. Let's get started with  the first 10 action verbs in the living room. 

I chill on the couch at the end of the day.  I chill on the couch at the end of the day. I  

look for the remote. I look for the remote. I give  up and read a book. I give up and read a book. I  

doze while I read. I doze while I read. I bonk my  head on the couch. I bonk my head on the couch.  

I greet my husband. Dan: 

Hi. Vanessa: 

I greet my husband. Hi. We chat  about the day. We chat about the day. 

Dan: So what did you do today? 

Vanessa: Well, today. I convince my husband to rub my back.  

I convince my husband to rub my back. Dan: 

Okay. Vanessa: 

I thank him for helping me. I  thank him for helping me. Thanks. 

Dan: You're welcome. 

Vanessa: What's that sound? 

Dan: I think it's the washer. 

Vanessa: Could you fix it? 

Dan: Okay. 

Vanessa: He's going to  

fix the annoying squeaking sound. He's going to  fix the annoying squeaking sound. Thanks, hun. 

So let's get started with 10 common verbs  in the kitchen. I turn on the hot water.  

I turn on the hot water. I pour the hot water into  my mug. I pour the hot water into my mug. Then I  

add some cream to my tea. I add some cream to my  tea. Then I squeeze in some honey, just a dot.  

I squeeze in some honey. And the last  step is, I stir my tea. I stir my tea.  

I want to make sure that the cream and  the honey are all mixed in. I stir my tea. 

Next I toast my bread to make toast.  Actually, I don't have any bread in the  

house. I only have pitas, but you know what?  It'll work. Notice how we can use to toast  

as a verb and a noun. I'm going to toast my  bread, and it will make toast. Now I have toast.  

So I'm going to spread the butter on the toast.  I'm going to spread the butter on the toast. Well,  

I didn't have any bread and I don't have much  jam. So I'm going to scrape the jam from the jar.  

Scrape the jam from the jar. And look, I found  some, so I'm going to put it on the toast. 

I'd like to eat some scrambled  eggs. So I need to crack  

the egg into the bowl. Crack the egg into  the bowl. Uh oh. Now I need to fish out  

a piece of the shell. Fish out a piece  of the shell. Oh, okay. Now we're fine.  

And now I scramble the eggs. I scramble  the eggs. As some of you know, I have  

eight chickens that live in my backyard. But  unfortunately we are only getting one egg a day  

because they're too young to lay eggs. Hopefully  they will start laying more eggs soon. So we still  

need to buy eggs from the store. But I'm going  to scramble the eggs from the store and eat them. 

Now my eggs are finished and the final touch is  I grate some cheese onto the eggs. I grate some  

cheese. Notice that this is spelled different  than great. This is spelled G-R-A-T-E. I grate  

some cheese onto the eggs. And that will make a  wonderful breakfast, tea, toast, and eggs. What  

about you? What do you like to eat for breakfast? Are you ready for 10 verbs in the office?  

Let's do it. I check my email. I check my email.  I send a message to a student. I send a message  

to a student. I reply to an email. I reply to  an email. I plan my lessons. I plan my lessons  

for you. I schedule a meeting. I schedule a  meeting. Notice that the beginning of this  

word sounds like S-K. Sk, schedule a meeting. I  schedule a meeting. I scroll through the web page.  

I scroll through the web page and I click on a  link. I click on a link. I download the free PDF.  

I download the free PDF. I upload a new video.  I upload a new video. Before I close the file, I  

save the file. I save the file. Next, let's talk about 10 verbs in  

the bedroom. I stretch my arms. Ugh. I stretch  my arms in the morning. I yawn when I'm sleepy.  

I yawn when I'm sleepy. In the US, it's polite  to cover your mouth when you yawn. Is this  

the same in your country? I go to bed around  10:00 PM. I go to bed around 10:00 PM. I lie  

down in bed. I lie down in bed. I don't snore when  I sleep. I don't snore when I sleep. Do you snore?  

I toss and turn when I can't sleep well. I  toss and turn. Notice that this expression  

uses two of pretty much the same words, to toss  and to turn. They both have the same meaning,  

but we use them together in this verb.  I toss and turn when I can't sleep.  

Oh, I over sleep when I  forget to set my alarm clock.  

I over sleep when I forget to set my alarm  clock. I have to rush now so that I'm not late. 

Ah, it feels so good to sleep in on the weekends.  It feels so good to sleep in on the weekends. But  

I have kids, so the reality is that I never sleep  in. Do you sleep in? Notice the difference between  

over sleep and sleep in. Over sleep is always  negative. Maybe you're going to be late for work.  

You probably forgot to set an alarm clock.  Something bad is going to happen because you  

slept for too long. But when you sleep  in, it could be positive or negative.  

I slept in and then I was late for  work. But it could be positive too,  

I love to sleep in on the weekends. Not a  negative thing, it just means that you can  

relax and you don't have anywhere to be. I  hope you get a chance to sleep in sometime. 

I lean against the pillows to read.  I lean against the pillows to read.  

To read a good book. If you would like any of my  book recommendations. Children's books, books for  

beginners, books for non-fiction readers.  There's a link in the description of this video  

to my Amazon shop, where I have different pages  where you can see my top book recommendations,  

including this book for kids, Brown Bear Brown  Bear, what do you see? Oh, I fling off the  

covers because I'm late for work. I fling off the  covers because I'm late for work. I got to go. 

Now let's talk about 10 verbs in the car. First  of all, I open the car door. I open the car door.  

Come on inside. Now that I'm in  the car, I buckle my seatbelt.  

I buckle my seatbelt. And because I'm the driver,  I need to adjust my seat and the mirror. I need to  

adjust the seat and the mirror. And now I start  the car. Or we can say, I start the engine. I  

start the car, I start the engine, before I start  to drive. I back out of the driveway. I back out  

of the driveway. To go faster I accelerate. That  means that I push the acceleration. That is the  

pedal that helps me to accelerate. I accelerate.  And when I get to a stoplight or a stop sign, I  

need to push the brake. Or we can use the verb to  brake. I brake the car. This doesn't mean that I  

break the car. Notice the difference in spelling.  I break, or I brake the car. I am not the Hulk,  

I cannot break the car, but I can brake the car. When I want to turn, you must use your turn  

signal. But we use a great verb for this, which  is to signal. We can use it as a verb or a noun.  

I signal with my turn signal so that other drivers  know where I'm going and it's much safer that way.  

I signal with my turn signal. And if someone is  an awful driver, I honk the horn. I honk the horn.  

When I see my friend, I roll down the window to  say hi, hi! I roll down the window. Now a while  

ago, cars used to have something where you really  rolled down the window, a handle that you turned.  

Now that there's just a button, we still  use the same verb, to roll down the window.
