Like, Nick Grimshaw...
Learn something about English from one of the most famous young radio presenters in the UK - Nick Grimshaw.
So far, we've learned how to use like as a preposition and as a verb.

This is a very common way of speaking, especially for young, cool people like Nick Grimshaw.
But what does it mean? Let's take a closer look. And don't worry if you don't understand everything - the way he speaks is very quick and very informal!

I went to karaoke last night. So I, sort of, don't have any voice. At about midnight last night, when I was going home… I was with Caroline, who's my manager. Her job is to, like, look after me. At midnight last night I was tapping her on the shoulder, because I couldn't actually say her name, because my voice had gone. And I was like: "Caroline, Caroline. I've got no voice. I've got no voice whatsoever." She was like: "Ok, ok, ok. Let's figure this out. Let's have a glass of water." It was gone.
