Hello everybody, welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression.

Today's expression is a very useful phrasal verb. It is to blend in, B-L-E-N-D-I-N. To blend in. So today I was having pizza.

And the toppings on my pizza were Italian sausage, green pepper, and cheese.

So how does that sound?

Does that sound like a good combination?

Well, let me tell you, for me, it is an excellent combination because the flavors, each flavor is very distinct.

Each flavor is very unique.

But when you bring the flavors together, they blend in perfectly to create a new, wonderful, fantastic pizza sensation.

Those flavors, those aromas, those tastes blend in very nicely.

They harmonize.

They go together and combine as one very nicely.

To blend in is a great expression.

Another idea of to blend in would be for something to look or seem the same as the other things around it.

For example, me.

I think all of you can imagine me.

I'm just an average American, a white guy.

46, am I 46, 47? I don't know, late 40s, losing some hair, not too thick, not too fat,

thick, yeah, a little bit, thick-headed. So if I go to a shopping mall in America, will it be easy to see me? No. No, absolutely not. Because I blend in

to the crowd. And actually, we can say blend into. I blend in with the other shoppers. I blend in to the community that I'm living in.

I look normal.
