Phrasal verb
 
Hi everyone,
 
I have a doubt. When a class has been cancelled and it has to be done at another time, can I say something like:
 
" the lesson will be made up for next week"
"we will catch up with the lesson next week"
 
As neither of them sound correct to me and don �t know how to say it correctly.

Your suggestions may be right, I �m not sure.

But you can always say:
We will do the lesson next week.

How about:
 
We will make up for the lesson next week

"the lesson will be made up for next week" - should perhaps be "We will make up the lesson next week..."

"we will catch up with the lesson next week" - also should perhaps be "We will catch up ON the lesson next week.."


But you can say what liberty suggested or... also... "We will continue with the lesson next week.."

Yes, I would also use Libertybelle �s phrasing, or eve "We �ll do this lesson another" time just in case you can �t do it next week.
