Why should we learn phrasal verbs?

  • Phrasal verbs are used frequently in everyday communication because they are an essential aspect of the English language.
  • Our communication in English may be less effective without an understanding of what phrasal verbs are and how to use them.
  • Without an understanding of phrasal verbs, we may struggle to understand English speakers.
  • Phrasal verbs are often tested in English exams, so learning them can help you succeed in these tests.

The combinations of these verbs and the particles can either give the verb a different meaning, or keep a literal meaning. Observe: Go up= (1) to move to a higher position (2) to increase

form & types

Verb + 1 Particle (Preposition or Adverb): get up - go through -

Verb + 2 Particles (Prepositions and/or Adverb): put up with - look forward to - run out of -

Transitive phrasal verbs require a direct object to complete their meaning: look someting up / bring sb up

Phrasal verbs can be:- Separable - the object is placed between the verb and the particle (or positioned after the particle). 'He made up the story' or 'He made the story up'. - Inseparable- the particles go right after the verb. 'He looks after his sister'
