and meet
as well as expressions like meet with
and meet up with
. Sometimes the difference is between formal and informal English. In other cases, these words and expressions have very different meanings. Try the quiz at the end of the video to practice what you’ve learned.

Meet our new winner. Though we can’t meet up with, we still can have much fun!
The enormously fast shark of EngVid, who beats the bird that eats worms.
New points:
SKIKDA: 3
Nataanna: 2
Nkh.453: 1
Kotoz : 1
Canardo: 1
I will type winners only, ok?
I didn’t finish:
SKIKDA is the enormously fast shark who beats the bird
that eats the worm
that chats on the forum the EngVid build!
Exuse my present simple. That is for lyrics.
Hello Nataanna, how was your trip??? Where did you go for your trip?? If you like, please share your experiences.
Hi, nkh! I was seeking for flowers blossoming in Greece, as I had been promised by my husband. But we were too early. I’ve already written about my trip (see my comment to soei in Ronnie’s lesso. I thought, that I comment your message as well )
We liked it very much. A little kiss of sun for the northern country!
Thanks
You’re right Emma these two words are a real problem for language learners, especially beginners.
Your chart is self-explanatory. It made it quite clear how to use appropriately these commonly-confused verbs.
That’s it for me now! Looking forward to your next video Emma.
hi nataanna i let you a comment in the previous James’ lesson, could you please answer me there .
With pleasure!
Funny!
Congratulations. Now you’re our Winer. Keep it up.
thaks but i hope you will get over me soon
Dear friends, I have a question. I really like to know, in your country, how do you enter college? I mean do you take any special exam befor entering colleges?? Or you decide your favorite discipline and continue your studying??? Please answer me.
in my country you can continue your studying in the public schools and they will give you the branch even in the high school or the university according your exams’ results for free but in the private schools you can study whatever you want just pay them .
Russians can enter universities according to results of school exams (after the 11th grade). But it’s not simple to get proper points for free education. If your results don’t meet the requirements of the Uni, you can pay unless your results are less the minimum rate (then you must wait for a year and take them second time). One should choose the exams to take according to Uni’s rules.
You have the opportunity to leave the school after the 9th grade and continue at college. it’s not prestigious at all, you can’t get good job afterwards. But you can enter the Uni after college and even shorten the education time in some cases.
That’s the main idea of high school in Russia. What about Iran?
Hello nKh. I am a beginner student and I am inerested in learning more English but there is some problems in this way and one of them is that I do not have any friends who can speak English with me.

well, who wants to know anyway nice vid Emma fantastico!!
Thanks Emma,it’s easy to understand now
Thanks ,useful lesson
Hey Emma
I’ve noticed that you forgot an “e” in the last phrase, when you wrote: I met up with my friens tonight. Which one would be the best, Either I’m gonna meet up with my friends tonight or I’ll meet up with my friens tonight. Maybe both are correct?.
Thanks. Take care.
good lesson Emma, so nice to meet you here and nice to meet up with every one in this forum .
Hi my Teacher! I saw you along time ago! I knew you are English Teacher online but I haven’t meet you! I hope i can meet you on real life and say: Nice to meet you my teacher! thanks a lot!
I knew I had to meet Engvid before!
Thankx Emma
Hello Mrs. Emma,
You explain hard moments very easier than other english language teacher on youtube. It’s very easy to understand you.
Thanks to you i improved my english up to advanced level.
Thanks a lot Emma ; it’s very useful lesson for everyday whenever i practise english.
good new stundet
Thank you Emma! I surely will pleased to meet you !
Ooopsie.. Should be more careful next time
Thank you for all! ☺
Hi Emma
Another wonderful video for learner.I got 7 correct out of 10.I have knew engvid for one year, but i can not satisfy due to slow progress.
Thank you emma
For Italian speaking people is very easy to understand difference between “Meet” and “Know”.We have the right words to translate them.
I didn’t know “Meet up with” and “Meet with”.
Thanks.
I *met up* with my friend tonight or I *meet up* with my fiend tonight. Which is correct? Thanks everybody^^
*friend*
i think “met up with my friend tonight” is correct.
Because this sentence show that you did this action, if you want to use ” meet up with my friend tonight”, i think this sentence is future tense :)
I met up with my friend or I will meet up with my friend
Thanks. Good lesson.
Got 100%. So glad . Thanks Emma. You are great!
hi Anne welcome back.
Thanks!
Thanks Emma!!Interesting lesson!
Thanks Emma, this lesson was great.. and easy to undestand…

Likeable lesson Emma.
Thanks you!
hello Everyone
Emma ….thank you for this lesson ….I like it …you are best teacher at Engvid ….. you are first in English …you Know English better than me .
Thanks Emma, perfect lesson, finally I got it the differences by use between Know and meet!
Interesting lesson, very clear explanation.I got 8
very wonderful!!! i’m surprising to get near 10 of 10
Thanks a lot Teacher Emma, you’re Great
If i write, I will meet up with my friends tonight rather I met up with my friends tonight. Is the sentence correct?
I know my teacher since 2014.
Is this sentence is correct??
That is correct.
Wait a second guys, the sentence is incorrect!
I’ve known my teacher since 2014 or . . .
I’ve known my teacher for three years.
See you around! Nice MEETING you both.
thanks Emma,it was helpful interesting lesson with high level of explanation.
10/10 Thanks Emmam.
“Nice to meet with you (again)” Is it correct?
good for you
Thanks Emma!!! A interesting and clear lesson!!!
When it is the first time, we use “to meet” but when it is an important event, we use “to meet with” and when it is a very enjoyable situation, we use “to meet up with”, and finally when there is a relationship before, then we use “to know”. If you think like this, it isn’t difficult to understand this lesson. Thanks a lot, teacher Emma, it has been a very funny lesson.
Thanks Emma so much
Thank you for this lesson.
I knew this,
Could you please make a video about difference betweet finish and complete, thanks.
We have a lesson on the difference between “end” and “finish”, but none about “finish”/”complete”! I’ve added it to the list of lesson requests.
Thanks Emma. It would be great if We could tag the videos we have already watched.
Hi Emma, thanks for the lesson. Regardless of that I already know all this stuff It was good enough to refresh my memory =) But I’ve got a question ’bout one of your examples. “I met up with my friends tonight” – what is the time is supposed to be here? I mean that the word “met” tells us It was in the past. And at the same time we see the word “tonight”. So…. its 00:00 and the party, for example, was from 20:00 up to 23:30 ? That means “the party was at night yesterday (cuz it’s morning or a night already)”.
thank you for the answer in advance :)
Hello Maxxx89,
Imagine that you were at a party tonight. And you come home at 23:30. Your parent asks you: “Where have you been tonight?” And you answer: “I met up with my friends tonight.” So, the night is not finished yet and what you did this night now is considered as a past action. That is why we use “met” with tonight. Because, again, it is tonight, this night is not finished yet, but the action was already over. I hope this will be helpful.
Sincerely,
Röya.
Hi Röya,
thank you for the explanation. It is almost the same that I meant ?
Yes, you are right, Max. Have a great day.
100%!
Your explanation is superb! Just a few expressions I didn’t know… your’re one of the best engvid teachers! (=

Hello:) I am a little bit confused about the sentence: “I met up with my friends tonight”. Please, why is there past tense “met” when it is “tonight”? Thank you very much for explanation:) Karolina
Hi Karolina. For me the sentence is incorrect.
How about these ones?
“I met up with my friends last night” or
“I hung out with my friends last night”
Great Day! See you round.

Hi! Emma, the lesson was very helpful, thank you.
thank you emma.I get 10/10
thank you so much, my first time to know the difference between them, hope to meet up with you soon :D
I think that the answer of No8 quiz should be ‘know” or ‘meet up with’.
Becouse I think ‘buddy’ must be well known together and ‘football game’ should be fun. Am I mistaking it?
In any case, Thank you very much for your lecture.
I have been able to get 9/10 of quize except No8.
Ty so much… You did it great.
Thank you Emma you’re lessons are so great and your method is very easy to learn inglish.
I like this place, I’m learing english with my effort and dedication. But, my life in Brazil is very hard.
