hello welcome to English for everyone
where we practice real life American
English today we're going to learn two
great phrasal verbs so let's get started
pass on pass on is a phrasal verb but we
use it in two different ways in one way
it's separable and in another way it's
not separable and they mean two
different things let's take a closer
look if I separate the phrasal verb pass
on then it means to continue something
example you can pass on Traditions to
your family you can pass them on you can
pass the traditions on to your family so
we separate the phrasal verb pass on and
we can put the object in the middle you
can pass them on or if it's one you can
pass it on from one person to another
person it's like you're giving it to
them you pass it on example the family
has a tradition and they pass their
Traditions onto their children they pass
them on on to their children let's
practice does the family pass the
traditions on to their
children that's right the family passes
the traditions on to their children does
the family pass them on to their
children that's right the family passes
them on to their children or maybe
somebody has a skill and they pass it on
to their appr Apprentice they're
teaching their Apprentice this special
skill so they pass it on to their
Apprentice they pass the skill onto
their Apprentice let's practice is he
passing the skill onto his
Apprentice that's right he's passing the
skill on to his Apprentice is he passing
it on to his
Apprentice that's right he's pass
passing it on to his Apprentice now
let's talk about the phrasal verb pass
on that is not separable example I'm
going to pass on that that means I'm
going to reject it I'm not going to
accept it I'm not going to do it I'm
going to pass on it example an offer he
received an offer but he said no so I
can say he passed on it do not separate
this phrasal verb put the object at the
end always he passed on the offer or he
passed on it he didn't accept it he said
no to it he passed on it let's practice
he received an offer did he accept it or
did he pass on
it that's right he passed on it let's
practice he received an offer did he
pass on the offer or did he accept
it that's right he passed on the offer
he said no so remember the phrasal verb
pass on can be used two different ways
if it's it's separated you know that it
means to continue something to carry on
something to give it to the other person
that's pass it on but if it's not
separated pass on something that means
you say no you reject it thank you for
