the word over it can change the meaning
of another word it depends if over goes
after a word more specifically a verb so
a phrasal verb or if it goes before
another word making it a prefix so we’re
going to do this in two segments first
we’ll look at phrasal verbs and our
first phrasal verb is this so to take
over something means to take control of
something for example when a company
buys another company it takes over that
company not just with that it could be
for general things as well if something
takes control of something it takes it
over again it’s a phrasal verb and this
one is separable ah for example despite
us have teeth I can’t draw spiders I
don’t know okay that’s more like us but
that looks nothing like a spider let’s
imagine him in his apartment there are
spiders everywhere and they have taken
control of his apartment he could say oh
my god spiders have taken over the
apartment spiders have control of the
apartment
now you have three options move out of
your apartment burn them with fire or
three lucky for him he has a girlfriend
so he calls his girlfriend and he says
this so sometimes we use a movement verb
with over it just adds a friendly way of
saying to join someone else at a certain
place join them at the house at their
office a restaurant wherever they are
you add a movement verb and over it’s
like a way of saying I’ll join you so in
this case the boyfriend says to the
girlfriend can I come over what does it
mean can I come to where you are ah fine
so he goes over to her house now I said
a movement verb Innova you can change
the movement verb doesn’t have to become
or go
and how you move for example he could
walk over in other words go to her house
by walking but then he remembers
spiders I have to move fast
so his walk becomes his walk becomes a
run now he is running over maybe he
doesn’t want to run maybe he feels a bit
fancy dance over to someone’s house why
not
so the main thing is just to remember a
movement verb and over run over walk
over dance over any movement verb and
over it’s just a friendly way to say
join someone at a place wherever they
are so he arrives at his girlfriend’s
house they’re together and she says this
uh-oh the one sentence in English that
no one wants to hear we need to talk or
we have to talk about something that’s
never good but why did you say talk
something over if you save to talk
something over it adds the feeling of
discussion thinking about something in
order to make a decision so it’s more
common to say we need to talk in this
situation but in this case she’s saying
we need to talk something over and of
course she’s talking about the
relationship what do you think she’s
going to say
she says it’s over what does that mean
what does be over mean well it means
something is finished what is the it it
is their relationship the relationship
is finished hmm imagine that you’re this
guy what could you say to her
to say think more about your decision
you knew it from the previous example he
could say oh my god think it over so you
remember what that means think about it
a bit more in order to make that
decision yep it’s a difficult situation
a hard pill to swallow click here to
watch a video explaining that one ah oh
it’s not a good day for this guy
spiders his girlfriend breaks up with
him yeah anyway he leaves her house so
as he leaves her house as he leaves her
house his day gets even worse he falls
over in the past fell over it means when
you do this you’re walking and hood ah
this poor guy why does this happen to
him why because life isn’t fair and love
is dead anyway some time passes
time passes he’s just eating spoonfuls
of Nutella because he feels so bad about
his relationship he’s so sad he cries
every day but life isn’t bad because
after two months as they say time heals
all wounds and after two months he feels
good again
he has recovered from the bad situation
how can he say he recovered from a bad
situation when you recover from a bad
situation
for example a relationship you get over
the person get over just means recover
from a bad situation not just a
relationship you can recover from an
illness for example I was sick before
but I got over it I’m fine now I’m good
I have recovered so he feels good now
and he says I’m ready to start over what
does he mean start over he means don’t
you just love how phrasal verbs have a
million different meanings
so to start over or to start something
over you’re starting again in this case
over just means again hmm can I use over
with another verb yes in general you
could say do something over over means
again do something again so this guy
super happy now he’s ready to start over
and in fact he met someone new they fell
in love and they’re super super happy
but then don’t don’t
turn he sees his ex-girlfriend yeah
that’s awkward
but you know him you know he’s okay now
he got over her so he could say yeah
it’s okay I’m over her
now we’ve seen this before be over it
means something is finished well if you
say I’m over a person or a thing it
means you’re finished with it you don’t
care anymore
yeah I’m over it I don’t care for
example you might be thinking it English
is too difficult you know what I don’t
care I’m over it so they were all
phrasal verbs using over as the
preposition for a verb and they had many
different meanings but as a prefix
before a word it’s much much easier
don’t worry it’s regular meaning is
something as too much or there’s too
many of something it just means an
excess of something for example it’s a
romantic night between a boyfriend and a
girlfriend what should you do you should
go to a restaurant but first you have to
book a restaurant so as a good boyfriend
you’ll call the restaurant to book a
table so remember you have to book a
table at a restaurant make a reservation
right but imagine at that restaurant you
call and say hi I’d like to book a table
please and this guy says I’m sorry
we are overbooked I don’t know what
accent that was sometimes it happens a
restaurant will take too many
reservations when a restaurant takes too
many reservations or too many bookings
it will say we are over booked too many
bookings too many reservations hmm so
this guy sorry no reservation for you so
now it’s life it happens right so the
boyfriend will have to tell the
girlfriend this and it should be fine
should be really fine
now the restaurant was overbooked we
have to find another place so what’s a
normal reaction to this news okay we’ll
find another place right but no dis girl
crazy what do you mean over books you
don’t want to go because you became fat
so of course this isn’t a normal
reaction maybe it’s too much of a
reaction so someone over reacts they
react too much just remember as a prefix
very easy
it just means too much of something so
as a sentence she overreacted you’re
starting to understand how to use over
now let’s look at another example have
you ever met this type of guy when
someone gets a bit too close and is all
like hey it’s got a let’s be friends
you’re thinking oh this guy is too
friendly right too friendly too friendly
what should go there he is over friendly
you’re too friendly don’t be too
friendly it’s creepy
the key is personal space you could also
be maybe you’ve just finished 12 hours
at work a 12-hour shift and maybe you’re
just super super tired you worked too
much what could you say you are you are
too much you worked too much he is
overworked now he works too much and
he’s too tired and of course you can use
this in a general sense if you overdo
something then you do something too much
very example I don’t know girls have you
ever done this she could say I overdid
it on the makeup or I overdid my makeup
I did my makeup too much but again to
overdo something means to do something
too much
like in another example like maybe you
go out tonight and you drink too much in
the morning you feel like this your hair
is everywhere you feel rubbish
you smell like vomit and beer at this
point she could say okay last night too
much so maybe she overdid the drinking
or in general her night was excessive it
was too much oh I think I overdid it
last night I can’t feel my face when I’m
with you
so those examples were all passed and
they were positive well let’s use
something negative and not past for
example summers coming
it’s beach season soon so everyone
usually goes to the gym tries to get in
shape but be careful if you go to the
gym and you go everyday and you’re
lifting weights don’t overdo it because
you might look ridiculous especially if
you overdo the top half and forget about
legs day never forget legs day thanks
