30 different ways to use the word "run"

SHAYNA OLIVEIRA
About this episode

Did you know that the word "run" can mean lots of different things in English?

Today you'll learn 30 different ways to use this simple word!

Whew! That was a lot to learn and a lot to remember. What I suggest is trying to write your own example sentences with each definition or expression we learned today - so you can put it into practice.

A great way to expand your vocabulary further is to join my Vocabulary Builder Courses, which will teach you lots of useful English words - and help you practice them.

Inside the courses there's homework that helps you review the new words - and you can send in your homework for feedback and correction from our teaching team.
