Hi, this is Greg from OnlineLanguageAcademy.com and in this video I'm going to teach you 5 animals that are also used as phrasal verbs... so keep watching!

Alright, this is a brilliant topic, I love this topic because it just shows how fun English can be. So, I'm going to explain 5 Phrasal Verbs that use an Animal + Preposition.

So, let's go with the 5 Phrasal Verbs that are also animals:

Phrasal Verb No.1. Chicken Out
Now, the meaning of chicken out is that you... at the last minute, you don't do something because you are afraid. So, let's imagine that you are giving a big presentation in front of 2,000 people and you are very, very nervous about it and the last minute you say, "I can't do it! I'm not doing it! I can't do it! I chicken out". So you don't do it. You're too afraid. You are a chicken.. and you have chickened out!

Phrasal Verb No. 2. Horse around
If you horse around it means you are very active in a silly way. E.g. Hey listen to your father and stop horsing around! Horsing around. We normally tell children not to horse around, not to be silly, stop jumping on the sofa, stop fighting, stop horsing around!

Phrasal Verb No. 3. Fish For
If you fish for something you're indirectly looking for information. You're fishing for clues, e.g. Oooh i'm not where my colleague has been for the past 2 weeks but I'm fishing for information from the boss. You might also fish for compliments. If you're trying to give indirect comments to somebody to encourage them to compliment you then you fish for compliments. Fish For!

Phrasal Verb No. 4. Rabbit On
What a wonderful phrasal verb: Rabbit On! If you rabbit on... what does a rabbit do? Ok, constantly Mimimimi... If you rabbit on, you never stop talking! You talk and talk and talk...E.g. I'm sorry I'm late but I was speaking to the neighbour and she was rabbiting on and I could not escape she was rabbiting on. She always rabbits on, my neighbour... She rabbits on.

Phrasal Verb No. 5. Pig Out
If you pig out it means you eat a lot of a certain food. You could say, "This Friday we're going to get a movie, have my friends over and we're going to pig out on pizza and ice cream. I love pigging out on pizza. I love Pizza. And I always pig out on pizza. Pig out!

So there you go! 5 phrasal verbs that are also animals! I hope you've enjoyed this fun video. If you have, please like, share and subscribe to the Youtube Channel if your goal is to speak English with a high level of fluency and confidence.
