933 - Chip In - Phrasal Verbs in a Minute | Happy English

Today’s phrasal verb is chip in. When you chip in, it means you contribute money, effort, or help toward something - especially when everyone gives a little to make something happen.

For example, at the office, we all chipped in to buy a birthday gift for our manager.
And last weekend, my friends chipped in to rent a cabin in the mountains.
And at home, my neighbors and I chipped in to help our elderly neighbor clean up his yeard. It was a nice way to do something together.

And gere’s a pronunciation tip: Chip in sounds like chi-pin. The P at the end of chip links with in, so it sounds like chi-pin.

So how about you? When was the last time you chipped in for something - maybe a gift, a party, or a project?
