Let's learn engage

It's a verb and it often just means to do something together, or get someone to start doing something. 

You can engage someone in a conversation or lesson by being interesting or charming.

"You really know how to engage people – you're really interesting!"

A company can engage someone in their business by giving them a job.

"We've engaged someone to help us with our accounts".

It's a bit formal, but If you do an activity we can say that you engage in it.

"She liked to engage in extreme sports."

If you agree to get married - you get engaged.

We use this in the passive.

"He's just got engaged - He's really excited."

All of these examples talk about doing things together.

We hope this video was engaging, and that it helps you engage in learning English!
