Phrasal verbs

Oh, it looks so difficut because English language include many verbs and adverbs. But I know that adverb is description for a verb. It make on defenitions of these pairs predictable already.

Adverb don't change a verb and their meaning. It append description, get more details only. Hmm ... but it's out of common template. And it nemed as Phrasal verbs, it's as one word here.

Object

Phrasal verb may be with object or not. If object is personal pronoun it's before adverb particle, always. If not, it may be different.

• Asimo can turn them on.
• Asimo can turn light on.
• Asimo can turn on light.

Preposition or phrasal ... 

For example, words down, up may be in different groups. It's adverbs, verbs, adjectives, prepositions. Hm ... Where do I take any choosen with this different?

It may not be important ...

 

Equal single verbs

At sometimes any single verbs are equal for phrasal verbs, last isn't needed particle. But if I use adverb particle I set focus and appear more description for the listener.

• tidy = tudy up
• wake = wake up
• lie = lie down
• sit = sit down

 

Formal and informal

Phrasal verbs is for informal speech, in formal speech we can use alternatives:

• We got back in the evening.
• We returned in the evening.

Personal pronoun exception

If object is personal pronoun, I must set it between verb and adverb. Example: Take them off!

But why? Which order does define it to be?

Get one!

Phrasal verbs	Single verb
I break down this barrier.	I ...
I find out
We get back from the shop.
He was getting up
She has hurried up
She doesn't lie down all night.
I wanted to run away when monster came.
You can sit down now.
Please, stand up!
wake up
wash up
charge up
look up
pick up
put up
take back
tell off
throw away
tidy up
turn down
turn off

This is one verb, but I think possible to write more and context will define right verb each time.

How to

Phrasal verbs appear so many new meanings that it's difficult to understand. It's equal for prepostional verbs, but easily.

Also, It'm thinking about focusing on the single words before I'll use this and previous units fully.

But I have known about this grammar template and can check it into the sentences, usinng at sometimes also.
