Hello everyone, and welcome to On Your Mark’s English! 👋
Today is Wednesday, and this is Real English Expressions.
We’re learning a very natural everyday phrase: “It’s up to you.”
🌟 What Does It Mean?
We use this phrase when we want the other person to decide something.
It simply means “You choose.”
It’s polite, friendly, and extremely common in daily English.
💡 Example 1
A friend asks: “What do you want for dinner?” You can say: “It’s up to you.”
This means you don’t mind, and they can choose.
💡 Example 2
Someone asks: “Should we study now or later?”
You reply: “It’s up to you.”You are giving the decision to the other person.
🧠 Quick Summary
“It’s up to you” = You decide. You choose.
This expression is a simple way to sound natural and flexible in everyday conversations.
