Phrasal Verbs for New Year\’s Eve celebrations

Today at 大阪夕陽ヶ丘英会話 we are learning some phrasal verbs to talk about the oncoming New Year\’s Eve celebrations.

New Year\’s Eve is the night from the 31st of December to the 1st of January. What do you usually do on New Year\’s Eve? How are you going to ring in the New Year? (= celebrate the arrival of a special occasion)

I\’m going to stay in and have dinner with friends. We might go out afterwards. I\’m really looking forward to it! (= to be excited about something in the future)

You don\’t have to stay up all night to have fun, but you should definitely stay up long enough to count down to midnight. At midnight, you can watch the fireworks go off (= to make a loud noise or explosion) outside or on TV.

 

Let\’s practice these words in a different context.

Insert the correct phrasal verb:

1) I _______  ___ until 2 a.m. to finish my homework.

a) went off       b) stayed up        c) rang in

 

2) My dog got scared when the fireworks ________  ___.

a) went off        b) stayed up        c) rang in
