Phrasal verbs are a combination of verbs and adverbs or verbs and prepositions. They are either transitive or intransitive. One of the foremost important and challenging characteristics of phrasal verbs is that the meaning of the mixture is usually quite different from the meaning of the first verb by itself.

For example :

The verb hang around , which suggests to stay somewhere for a short time without doing much, features a completely different meaning from the verb hang. Likewise, the verb pass out , which suggests nodding off or becoming unconscious, features a very different meaning from the verb pass. Finally, the verb put up with, which suggests to tolerate has little connection to the meaning of put.

The sentences below illustrate these differences.

Hang out vs. hang

• I and my friends usually hang out in this garden.
• The baby goes to hold the kitchen hanging on the wall.

Pass out vs. pass

• Stand here and do not let anyone pass out from this side.
• He was very upset as he did not pass the final exams.

• Put the car within the garage.

If your goal is to be really fluent in English, dont start with grammar. You must be amazed by reading this but yes thats true.

Let me explain, when you start learning a language, especially English with grammar, you are setting yourself up for failure. If you try to process all the grammar rules in your head and try to speak, you will not speak much!

English grammar has so many of inconsistencies in its rules.

Lets talk with example, the possessive of John is Johns but the possessive of It is Its not Its , which is contraction of It is . You cant simply memorize and apply all the grammar rules in English.

I would suggest a better approach is to start speaking first and then improve grammar along the way. Think about it. This is the same way you learned your first language. Isnt it?
