Hello, dear Markét, thank you for this video:-) I'd like to ask you a question regarding the sentence: I took off for the airport..Is there always only the preposition "for"? We took off for a trip an hour ago. Before I'll take off my turtleneck, I need to take off my glasses, otherwise I'll break them. Have a wonderful day!🤗😘
Hi there, dear Jana, nice to hear from you! Thank you so much for watching. 😘 To your question: "Take off for" is used with a specific place (take off for the beach / for Paris / for Italy...) so the sentence "We took off for a trip an hour ago." isn't quite right. You can say instead: "We left for a trip an hour ago." or "We set off on a trip an hour ago.". 🙃 Happy learning and take care! Markét
Děkuji za srozumitelné vysvětlení 😊
My greatest pleasure, dear Helena. Thank you so incredibly much for learning English with me today! 😘

@@EnglishHackerCz Thank you for the explanation - I like both of the alternatives- leave for a trip/ set off on a trip. Great!🤗
