I think fill up is better associated with quantities and liquids as in fill up your glass. _________________ English as a Second Language You can read my ESL story Present Simple |

Hi Alan
Can you give me the specific meaning of fill out? another question is the phrasal verb fill up can be use in another phrase according to its context? because I learned, that when I'm appling for a job, usually the secretary told me to fill up the application form, is that right?
Thank you fil |

. No. You can fill in or fill out a form. You can fill up your tank with gas or fill up your glass with beer or fill up your pockets with peanuts.
Fill out: write all the required information onto a form. Fill in: write all the required information onto a form Fill up: to fill completely; to become completely filled
Fill into and fill over are not idiomatic English; they are just false answers for the test question. . _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

Dear Sir,
We used to say fill up a form only and we never used to say fill out a form.
Now only I learnt from you that we should say fill out a form instead of fill up.
Thank you sir, I need your valuable advise like this.

Please note the difference between 'advise' (verb) and 'advice' (noun).

Dear Mr Torsten Sir
As per your advice I watched TOEIC Listening : At the Dentist I had seen one Vocabulary Website in which I could found one miny dictionary which I had not seen when I was attending Listening Exercises. I will go through all the exercise when I get time. Thank you for the same. When you sending Listening Exercise to beginners please inform them that you can see everything like vocabulary quiizzes etc. some people like me may not aware of this. Any thanks sir, when I make mistake only I could learn something.
Many Thanks
