       Hi, everybody!!
 
I have to substitute the underlined words of one sentence for a phrasal verb, but I �m not able to find one.
 
Could you please help me??
 
The sentence is :
 
We don �t have any sugar left
 
Thanks in advance.

I also would say  We have run out of sugar.

Or you could simply say:
We �re out of sugar.

It won �t be correct if you are only able to substitute the underlined words.

I agree with other answers; We are out of sugar/We have run out of sugar
 
There �s also    We need to stock up on sugar

Thank you very much  for your help.
 
In spite of my answer was "to be out of sugar", I was a little confused.
 
Thanks again.
 
Have a nice day
