5 Common Direction Phrases in English: UPSIDE DOWN, INSIDE OUT...

I have put together a vocabulary lesson on five phrases of direction in English. I will teach you the meaning of “inside out”, “round and round”, “flip-flop”, “upside down”, and “tip top”. Phrases of direction are useful because they express the direction of moving objects, but can also express the way in which abstract ideas change. For example, a fish will “flip-flop” on the ground, and you may flip-flop on choosing a restaurant for dinner. This means it is difficult for you to decide. I am here to help you make sense of this topsy-turvy topic. Watch all the way to the end because there will be two bonus phrases for you to learn that will help you sound like a native English speaker. Don’t forget to take the quiz on this lesson at After that, watch my lesson on common DOWN phrasal verbs: TRANSCRIPT I’m having a hard time reading this book, E. It’s all upside down
