23 分钟Hey, everybody.
Welcome to another phrasal verb episode.
I hope you're all doing great, and I hope that you're ready to learn a couple new phrasal verbs.
So the two phrasal verbs that we're going to look at today are be cut out for and be in on.
I'm not going to do all of the be phrasal verbs.
The ones where it's be and then like a phrase after it.
I'll do some of them.
But I feel like some of these be phrasal verbs feel more like adjectives.
They don't feel as much like phrasal verbs as just the other ones that don't have be in them.
Because obviously, when there's a be, then the phrase after it is like describing the person or the subject, so it feels more like an adjective phrase.
But technically, these are phrasal verbs, so I'm going to include some of these.
Like, we'll look at these two today.
We'll look at some in the next episode, but I won't go through all of the ones with be.
We'll look at the ones that I'm most interested in teaching you.
Okay, so first, let's look at be cut out for.
So this phrasal verb means to be suitable or have the necessary qualities for something.
For example, I could say he's just not cut out for that job.
So here what I'm saying is that he just doesn't have the necessary qualities for that job.
He just doesn't have what it takes to do well in that job.
He's not suitable for it.
