CATCH UP
The expression “Catch up” sounds a lot like ketchup, the sauce
you eat on French fries, but no.
The expression “to catch up” means a few different things.
For example, “I’ll catch up with you later” I‟ll catch up with
you later means “I‟ll join you later.” Your American friend might
tell you “You go on to Starbucks, and I’ll catch up with
you later.” You go to Starbucks now, and I‟ll join you later.
Or if you have to end a conversation, with a colleague before a
meeting, you can say “Listen, let’s catch up after the
meeting. I want to ask you about….” Listen, let‟s catch up
after the meeting, and it means “let‟s continue the conversation
later.”
