Phrasal Verbs

Phrasal Verb: noun A single unit of meaning or phrase containing a verb and one or more adverbs or prepositions that together form a single meaning.

Welcome to the Phrasal Verb section of our Online English Article and Lesson Library. Phrasal Verbs are similar to Idioms in that they are phrases whose whole meaning differ from the meaning of its parts. Phrasal Verbs are Idiomatic expressions -which means even if you know all the grammar and words in a phrase the meaning may still may be unclear - that use a Verb and one or more Adverbs or Prepositions to create a new meaning. Learning Phrasal Verbs will take memorization because there is sometimes no logic behind their meaning.
