Let’s learn live.
Live is a verb, and it can just mean ‘to be alive’ – but it’s a bit more complicated than that.
It can say where our home is…
- I live in London.
- I used to live in Paraguay.
If we live off, or live on something, it means we support ourselves to stay alive…
- That salary is not enough to live off!
- I can’t cook so I live on ready meals.
If we live for something, then it’s really important to us.
- I live for my family
- I live for the weekend, I love to party!
Live can also mean having a life full of experiences…
- I need to live, not just work every day in a boring job.
The word live is about how we spend our lives – if you live for learning English we can help – it’s what we live off!
