Talk about maintaining contact with people.
The idea
Use keep in touch for continuing contact; add with before a person. The past is kept in touch.
Examples
- We keep in touch by email.
- She keeps in touch with her cousin.
- Let’s keep in touch after the course.
- They kept in touch during the trip.
- My neighbours keep in touch by phone.
- Do you keep in touch with your old teacher?
