Learn the English expression, "In charge of"

Who's in charge here? The person "in charge" is the person who is responsible for a situation.

At your local café, there might be a barista and a manager. The manager has responsibility for the store and has to solve any problems that come up. That's why we say the manager is "in charge."

You can say, "in charge of" plus the thing the person is responsible for. The manager at the café is in charge of setting the schedule. But the barista is in charge of serving customers as they come in.

Here's another way to use "in charge." You can put someone in charge if you give that person responsibility. You might put a colleague in charge of answering your emails while you're on vacation.

However you use it, remember that the person "in charge" is the person with responsibility.
