She eased up on the accelerator.

Hi, guys

So, my take is that:
I can ease off the accelerator and
I can ease up on the accelerator.

Am I right ?

I think both are physically possible and will provide the same amount of vehicle reaction!

I would say ease off, it sounds good.:-D

Just ease must use, no any prepositions.
ease : she eased it
ease off : it eased off, because she eased it.

agreed:

Hi,

Yes the answer is eased up.

Thanks

I think "ease off"
"Ease off" means "reduce pressure"
is that oke ?

 

[Araponga]

Perfect. Ease up requires an additional "on," so I vote for "ease off."

 

[bebe heart]

Both has basically same meaning. So how should I vote for both?

You shouldn't- Araponga has the right idea in https://www.usingenglish.com/forum/threads/2146-Ease?p=961602&viewfull=1#post961602
