THE ALPHABET GAME (J)

Welcome back, everyone! We are on day ten of our 2020 Alphabet Game. Even if you haven't been participating, it's not too late to start. For more information about the contest, you can see our initial post at the following link: https://www.ziggurat.es/daily-vitamin/?vitamin=3630.

Remember that you can win some pretty cool prizes:
1st Prize: A six-month General-English online course that includes the initial level test, guidance with an online tutor, telephone contacts and written tutorials.
2nd Prize: A whole year of access (tarifa plana) on the Foxize learning platform. You'll have access to more than 150 hours of online content for a whole year. (We thank Foxize for donating this generous prize.)
3rd Prize: a three-month 'English-for-Work' online course, which includes the initial level test, guidance with an online tutor, telephone contacts and written tutorials.
4th Prize: a VTIN Ultra-portable Waterproof Wireless Bluetooth Speaker.

Today's missing word begins with J.

Here is your sentence.

Sentence: They j_____ up the price of petrol this year. 

Here's a hint: this is a phrasal verb. We looked at many definitions of this phrasal verb; in this case, it means "to increase the price."

Here's another hint: make sure you use the correct tense for the missing verb. 

Do you know the answer? Give us your answer on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter) and we will post the correct answer later. We will also include the answer in tomorrow's Daily Vitamin email.

Best of luck to you!
