Now, I'm going to tell you a little story about me to help you put the verb "Put Off" into context.
Now, about 3 years ago I wanted to make YouTube videos and in fact I talked about it with a couple of students and I said, ok, you know what? After Christmas I'm going to start making videos. So first, I put it off until after Christmas. Then, January came and I put it off again. I said, ah OK, maybe February. February came and I put it off again. I kept putting it off and putting it off, and eventually, 3 years passed and I hadn't made any videos. So I didn't do it straight away, but instead I put it off until a later date. Ok, so you understand that put off means to delay, to postpone doing something you don't really want to do.


So, I want you now to answer one simple question in the comments below: what is the one thing that you always put off? Is it doing your homework? Is it going to the gym? Is it going to the dentist’s? Many people I know put off going to the dentist’s until they have toothache. So what is the one thing that you always put off? I look forward to hearing from you and I will see you in the next video…. if you subscribe. So please subscribe and I promise I will teach you many, many more phrasal verbs, many more expressions that are all gonna help you become a more confident speaker of English. Thanks so much for watching and bye for now!
