Phrasal Verbs: Frequently Asked Questions

What is a phrasal verb?

A phrasal verb is a verb + particle (up, off, out, with) whose meaning is often different from the verb alone: give = hand over, but give up = stop trying.

Are phrasal verbs separable?

Many are separable with object pronouns: turn off the TV / turn the TV off / turn it off (pronouns must go in the middle: turn it off, not *turn off it).
