Welcome! To get started, let's use a new grammar link. Go to [] Do the quiz at the end of the page. If you prefer, you can do a Google search for : Phrasal Verbs ESL. You will find lots of websites! Do you remember our Grammar Principle from yesterday? Phrasal Verbs! We learned that some phrasal verbs are transitive and take objects. EXAMPLE: She figured out the problem (the problem is the direct object). These phrasal verbs can be separated such as: She figured the problem out. I prefer the no separated way of using phrasal verbs but it's up to you!

Verb+particle=phrasal verb These are the two parts to a phrasal verb (the main verb and a particle).

EXAMPLES: come back=return The customers didn't come back. figure out=understand We had to figure out the problem. look into= research We looked into feng shui. pick up=improve Business has picked up. put up=erect or build He put up a new entrance.

These examples are found in the story typed in Monday's lesson.

If a phrasal verb is transitive and takes an object, most are separable. Noun objects can go after the particle or between the verb and the particle. When the direct object is a pronoun, the noun object must go between the verb and the particle. EXAMPLE: I didn't understand the word, so **I looked it up** in the dictionary (not I looked up it).

EXAMPLES: call off something=cancel Let's call off the meeting. pick out something=choose Pick out the chair you like best. take away something=remove Take away the dishes. think up something=invent He thought up good answers. work out something=solve He worked out the problem.

Some phrasal verbs are intransitive and do not take an object. The are always inseparable. EXAMPLES: catch on= become popular Feng Shui has caught on all over. get ahead=make progress Tina is getting ahead in her career. show up=appear The consultant showed up early. sit down= take a seat Sit down over there.
