LETS START WITH PHRASAL VERBS

Phrasal verbs are essential in order to improve your spoken and written English, as well as your listening comprehension, grammar and vocabulary skills for the exam. Learn English collocations and phrasal verbs quickly with Master English Collocations & Phrasal verbs: The Ultimate Phrasal Verbs and Collocations Book for Learning English from the English Vocabulary & Grammar Series. This book is packed full of collocations and phrasal verb exercises and explanations.

The phrasal verbs section of this book is organized by root verb, and each chapter contains explanations and review exercises.

What is a phrasal verb?

Phrasal verbs are a group of two or more words which perform the same function as another verb. A phrasal verb is a phrase that is made up of a main verb and an adverb, a preposition or both. They are idiomatic ways of expressing an action. Think of it like a sandwich:

[Main Verb] + adverb/preposition/adverb and preposition = phrasal verb

Phrasal verbs are unique to English and other Germanic languages and can cause issues for English learners. They can be transitive (they take a direct object), intransitive (they do not take a direct object), separable (they can be separated) and inseparable (they cannot be separated). We will cover the differences between these, complete with descriptions and exercises, later on.

Although the meanings differ, phrasal verbs are conjugated just like main verbs. For example, to break down conjugates like to break:

The car breaks down.

The car broke down.

Here are some common phrasal verbs to get you started:

Phrasal Verb bring up

Example He brought up the fact that I was too short to go on the rollercoaster.

Meaning: to mention a topic

Phrasal Verb call off

Example She called off the wedding.
