Keep at It! / 390 Answers to Exercises / 398 Index / 410 TO THE TEACHER The inspiration for The Ultimate Phrasal Verb Book came about when a student asked me for a textbook to help her learn the meanings of common phrasal verbs. I had nothing to offer. The only textbook focusing on common verbs that I could give her contains not one phrasal verb — it teaches arise but not get up, awake but not wake up, seek but not look for. Phrasal verbs are verbs, not idiomatic curiosities. There is no logic to classifying take over with take the bull by the horns. Phrasal verbs are an essential part of spoken and written English at all levels, and no student who hopes to master the language can afford to overlook them. Although this textbook is intended primarily for high-intermediate to advanced students, ambitious students at lower levels will benefit from it as well. Only some FOCUS sections may prove to be a little beyond them; otherwise, there is nothing to prevent any student from studying the definitions and examples and attempting the exercises. A vocabulary textbook should provide mechanics as well as meaning. Students want to know more than what a word means — they want to know how to use it correctly. The importance of mechanics is the reason for the emphasis on the prepositions required when some phrasal verbs are used transitively and for the inclusion of reviews of points of grammar not specific to phrasal verbs. Prepositions are the glue that holds English together, but many students falter when using newly learned verbs because they do not know that a preposition is also required, or if they do, which one. This aspect of English is not given the attention it deserves because it is difficult to teach — there are no rules that govern when a preposition, or which preposition, is required, and no teacher likes to say "You just have to remember." The hope of the latter feature, the discussion of points of grammar not specific to phrasal verbs, is that combining practice with phrasal verbs and practice with a variety of grammatical structures will increase not only the student's confidence in the knowledge of phrasal verbs but also his or her willingness and ability to use them in a wider range of situations. There is inevitably a degree of oversimplification. That phrasal verb particles are sometimes prepositions and sometimes adverbs is mentioned only once. No purpose is served by differentiating between them, and the overlap between the two is confusing to the student. Phrasal verbs are not identified as transitive or intransitive because this is dictated by logic. Less common meanings of some phrasal verbs have not been included. Adverb placement is presented and illustrated in simplified form without discussion of the different types of adverbs — doing so would have gone beyond the scope of this textbook. iv [...]... part of a phrasal verb In other words, the phrasal verb minus the particle In the phrasal verb pull over, pull is the verb and over is the particle The adverbs and prepositions in phrasal verbs are both called particles in this book Many particles are adverbs and prepositions, and it can be very difficult and confusing to figure out if a particle in a particular phrasal verb is one or the other Fortunately,... of the most common phrasal verbs and also of common nouns and adjectives made from phrasal verbs Most phrasal verbs are nor informal, slang, or improper for educated speech or formal writing Exactly the opposite is true — most phrasal verbs are acceptable at all levels of spoken or written English In fact, for many of the phrasal verbs in this textbook, there is no alternative to the phrasal verb — there... 7 They were killed when they a truck 8 The mechanic can't what the problem is with my car 13 3 FOCUS ON: three-word phrasal verbs Phrasal verbs are not always composed of two words Three-word phrasal verbs are composed of a verb and two particles: the first particle is normally an adverb, and the second a preposition Like two-word phrasal verbs, three-word phrasal verbs are either... verb can be placed between the verb and the particle vi 1 FOCUS ON: separable and nonseparable phrasal verbs Phrasal verbs are either separable or nonseparable Unfortunately, there is no rule that will help you to look at a phrasal verb and always know whether it is separable or nonseparable Separable phrasal verbs Separable phrasal verbs can be separated by their object When the object is a noun, it... because there is a lot to learn in this textbook, there is a lot of review to help you learn it Every phrasal verb is reviewed at least twice later in the book The more idiomatic phrasal verbs are reviewed more often, and the more important meanings of phrasal verbs with several meanings are reviewed more often Terms, Abbreviations, and Symbols Used in this Textbook verb particle p.v Verb refers to the verb. .. whether the object is placed between the verb and the particle or placed after the particle Both sentences below are correct: I took my shoes off I took off my shoes However, when a pronoun is used instead of a noun, the pronoun must be placed between the verb and the particle: I took them off I took off them But in one type of sentence, separable phrasal verbs must be separated — when the phrasal verb. .. important to the student, so it is a lot easier to simply call them both particles phrasal verb n a noun made from a phrasal verb part.adj participle adjective — a past participle of a phrasal verb used as an adjective put on it When words or sentences have a line through them, it means that they are incorrect Three dots between the verb and the particle mean that the object of the phrasal verb can be... and past continuous phrasal verbs Like one-word verbs, phrasal verbs can normally be used in the continuous tense (also called the progressive tense) using the -ing form of the verb (also called the present participle) and a form of be: The principal told me you'd been cheating on the test I've been going after my master's for nearly five years Which dictionary is he looking up the words in?
