I asked on this photo here. And by far, the most popular comment was tell us about your trip to Barcelona Unfortunately, I didn't film much or take so many photos so I can't do that. The second most popular was phrasal verbs and the third most popular was travel vocabulary. I thought I would take travel and phrasal verbs, fuse them together, and talk to you about travel-related phrasal verbs. So let's get started. Now, obviously you know the ones like "take off" and "get away" and things like that. Today, I want to talk to you about some more advanced travel-related phrasal verbs. So the first one is "to set off". To set off. To set off means to start or begin a trip or a journey. So, I could say, "When I went to Barcelona, I set off at six o'clock in the morning and I arrived at the airport at eight o'clock." So I began the whole journey at six o'clock in the morning. Now, the next one is "to hold up". And this means to delay something. So, I could say, "There was a traffic jam which held us up for half an hour." The next one is "to see somebody off" or just "to see off". And this means to go to a station or airport or specific place to say goodbye to somebody that is traveling somewhere. So, I could say, "My dad came into departures to see me off." My dad came into departures to say goodbye to me before I traveled. The next one is "to check in". And this means to arrive and register at a hotel or an airport. So at the airport, I had to check in my luggage at the desk and at the hotel, I also had to check in and receive my keys. Remember, at the end of the trip I would also check out. The final one is "to stop over". And this means to stop somewhere on the way to your final destination. So if you were going on a long journey to Indonesia, for example, maybe you would stop over in another country in another airport on the way and then make a connecting flight to break up the journey So my final destination is Indonesia, but I might stop over in Italy. OK, guys, those were your five travel-related phrasal verbs. I hope you enjoyed the video, I hope you learned something.
