spring for. Okay. Let's take a look the note. Yeah. We have two meanings today to cover.

So we'll have examples to cover both of these meanings. Let's look at the note

here. If someone springs for something, he or she pays for something expensive or

something on an average day he or she would be unwilling to pay for. So we

wouldn't normally get this. So they're springing for it. They're paying more

than they normally would. That's why they spring for it. Okay. Let's look at the

second meaning too. If someone springs for something , he or she leaps. They jump or

you know, basically dashes for something. Okay. Good.

All right. So let's look at the four examples here. Example number one. I

wouldn't usually pay so much for a big-screen TV, but it was such an

incredible sale I decided to spring for it. So normally you know, I wouldn't get

this. But I couldn't refuse the sale. So I said yeah sure why not ? Let's do it.

Something like that or number two here. Since today is your birthday I'll spring

for lunch. Yeah. We often say it like when we're going to treat somebody. Just like

I said before. So you're springing for lunch. You know, you're going to pay for that

person. It's their birthday. So you're going to do something nice for them. Okay. Or

number three here. When the earthquake struck that vase on one of my shelves

started to move or shake, so I sprang for the shelf and caught it as it was about

to fall to the floor. So you had you move quickly to spring for it. And the last

example we have here. That cat sprang for a mouse running by and caught it. Okay. So

the cat running by or mouse running by. And he just jumped up, caught it. Got it.

So he's sprang for it. Anyway I hope you got it. I hope it's clear.

Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
