In this English lesson, learn about the power of prepositional verbs. This is one of my favorite areas to learn in a foreign language and I'm sure you'll find it useful learning this in English too.

The song I mentioned is by Robbie Williams - Feel.

Here are the lesson notes and phrases from the lesson:

BELIEVE IN:

It means to have faith in the existence or truth of something. The best examples is:

- Do you believe in ghosts?
- Do you believe in aliens?

It can also mean to have an opinion that something is right or desirable:

- I don’t believe in the way things are being censored at the moment

DEPEND ON:

This is a very good one to know. I use it all the time. For example, if someone says:

- Will I become fluent in English this year? - It depends on what you do with your time and how much time you spend learning English
- How much TV time you get later will depend on how much you tidy today
- Whether we on vacation this year will depend on flight restrictions

LOOK AT:

- Look at this

This is used to bring someone’s attention or gaze to something

- Quick, get outside and look at the moon right now
- That guy’s looking at me in a weird way

It can also be used when thinking about something carefully

- I’ll take a look at what you sent me and make a decision later
