Hey there, this is Teacher Lab Podcast episode 315.

You read English, you understand English.

My name is Ola and this is Teacher La Podcast.

I'm here to help you finally speak out loud.

This isn't about perfect grammar or fancy vocabulary.

This is about your voice, your words, your real English.

Today's episode is all about relationships, the words and phrases we use when we talk about meeting people, dating, breaking up or staying in touch.

Before we begin, I want to remind you that my speaking course Say It Out Loud or SIOL is now open for enrolment at siol.pl.

This course is not about memorizing grammar or repeating rules.

It is about speaking.

Every single day you will join my speaking club and you will send me short voice messages for daily feedback and meet other learners who want to train their speaking, not just study English.

It's a complete experience built to get you talking and it really works.

If you are still not sure whether to join, maybe you are worried about your level or is it the right time for you,

There is a short form you can fill in and I will get back to you personally.

In that session I showed you why even strong learners still make present simple mistakes and how to finally fix them.

It is available until November the 18th, 2025.

So, go to seol.pl and join Say It Out Loud or fill in the form at teacherola.com forward slash course, I mean kurs in Polish, kurs, if you want to talk it through first.

And now, let us dive into today's topic, the language of relationships.

We learn about their lives, what they like, what they do and what kind of people they are.

This means we enjoy each other's company and have a good relationship.

So hanging out is spending time with someone.

Hang is an irregular verb, so notice the past form is hung.

This means we start dating or being in a romantic relationship.

Maybe you think about them all the time, smile when you see them or feel a bit nervous when they talk to you.

It's usually a very special moment.

But not all relationships last forever.

Or it can be difficult, especially if you have been together for a long time.

Sometimes people break up because their partner is having an affair.

This means they continue to talk, message or meet from time to time.

Finally, if you fall out with someone, fall out with someone, it means you have a big argument or fight and it damages your relationship.

This could happen with a friend, a family member or a partner.

Maybe you said something you didn't mean or maybe you disagreed about something important.

Do you want to hang out this weekend?

He had an affair with his colleague.

They fell out over something really small.

And that's where we'll wrap up today's episode.

It's the perfect way to practice a little more and really make the new phrases stick.

Before you go, just a quick reminder, the replay of my webinar, present not that simple, is still up, but only until the 18th of November 2025.

In that session I break down why even strong learners still make mistakes with the present simple and show you how to finally fix them for good.
