About this listen
Today, let’s look at a really useful conversational phrase - “What’s up with…?”
We use what’s up with…? to ask about something we don’t understand. It’s another way to say
“What’s the situation with…?” And you can use it for people, for events, or even for weird situations.
- Like, Maybe your coworker is acting strange. You can say: “What’s up with John today?”
- Or if you’re confused about a rule at work, you might say: “What’s up with casual Fridays? Can we wear jeans or not?”
- We also use it to talk about trends or new behaviors we don’t get. Like: “I don’t know what’s up with kids these days and that 6-7 thing.”
What’s up with waiting? Go try this phrase in your next conversation!
