It has at least three different meanings. What are they?
First, it can mean to invent, for example, a story. The story is not true – it did not
really happen – it came from my imagination. I made it up.
Second, make-up (a noun formed from the phrasal verb) is the stuff women
put on their faces – you know, eye-liner, eye-shadow, lip stick and so on. And if a
woman makes herself up, it means that she puts her make-up
on.
Third, suppose two friends have an argument. They are angry with each other. But later,
they decide to forget their argument and to become friends again. We say that they have
made up.

One of the best and most efficient ways to
learn new words quickly and build up your vocabulary is to see how they are used in a sentence.
Learning words by seeing how they are used in a sentence is called
learning vocabulary in context. It is considered much more efficient than just memorizing the word and its meanings. It’s also much more interesting.
When you learn vocabulary in context, you look at the word and its meaning, then read or hear a sentence that uses that word. This helps you internalize the meaning of the word and can also help you see how to use that word to make your own sentences. So, you are not just improving your vocabulary, you are also
picking up grammar tips as well.
