Don’t give up!

Sometimes, instead of telling someone what to do, it’s helpful to tell them what not to do.

Because of this, many encouraging phrases begin with the word “don’t,” such as “Don’t stop!” or “Don’t lose hope!” (The famous song by Journey, “Don’t Stop Believing,” is another example of this.)

To “give up” is a phrasal verb that means to lose hope and stop trying.

Let’s say a friend tells you a riddle or a puzzle that you try to figure out.

After 15 minutes of wrong guesses, you might say “I give up.” Your friend would then tell you the correct answer.

But if you’re working towards something important, it’s nice to hear someone remind you “Don’t give up!”

A: I can’t remember the next line! Ah, I don’t know if I can memorize this poem by the end of the week.

B: Don’t give up!
