What is a Phrasal Verb
-
Phrasal verbs are combinations of a verb + particle (usually a preposition or an adverb) that create a new meaning, often different from the original verb.
Example: give up = stop trying / quit / surrender -
They are very common in:
• spoken English
• everyday conversations
• informal writing
• exams and language tests like IELTS, TOEFL, and Cambridge -
Phrasal verbs are important because they:
1. Make your English sound more natural
2. Improve fluency and understanding
3. Expand vocabulary
4. Help in real-life communication -
Each Phrasal Verb is polysemous, explained and exemplified in several concepts to which they apply.
E.g. GIVE UP: stop doing something; surrender; relinquish possession or control; devote or dedicate something.
