thesis is concerned with the use of the study of linguistic on “Get” Phrasal verbs in English with reference to the Vietnamese equivalents Phrasal verbs are generally claimed to have a very important function in the English language To research this project successfully, I would like to answer the following research questions The aim of this thesis is analyzing the linguistic of ‘get’ phrasal verbs and raising Vietnamese learners’ awareness of these verbs, the use of “get” phrasal verbs has not yet been the specific focus in different researches, so that is why this thesis seeks to make a contribution and help them improve their real world communication exactly and successfully in English More detail, I also point out some syntactic and semantics features of ‘get’ phrasal verbs with reference to the Vietnamese equivalents; and the second one is to propose some implications for mastering ‘get’ phrasal verbs in an effective way The findings of this work are based on the descriptive method is utilized to give a deep and detailed description of the ‘get’ phrasal verbs and their Vietnamese equivalents and comparative method is used to analyze the ‘get’ phrasal verbs with reference to Vietnamese equivalents, hence pointing out the distinctive features of ‘get’ phrasal verbs which cause difficulties for Vietnamese learners and suggesting some implications for teaching these verbs to learners at Hanoi Vocational College of High Technology The result of the study is expected to give some following benefits The research result will help the lectures and students to solve part of their problems in teaching and learning ‘Get” phrasal verb The result of the research can be used as an additional knowledge to improve the students’ mastery of vocabulary Because, the students are able to get other new meaning from the same verb if the verb is added by certain preposition In other hand, by understanding the meaning of ‘Get” phrasal verbs; students can implement them in daily conversation They can also develop their mastery of ‘Get” phrasal verbs in speaking, listening, reading and writing By using more than one expression, they can say one idea in various ways v LIST OF

can be conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed” (Wilkins, 1972: 111) This argument has been supported by many researchers in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) who have emphasized the significance of vocabulary and agreed that vocabulary is equally, language structure in language acquisition if not more, important than Plenty of Vietnamese learners may get accustomed to spoken English as soon as they begin learning how to write and read in their mother tongue This means that people have recognized the importance and necessity of English as well as the advantages that English may bring about However, learning English is always a big challenge for Vietnamese native-speaker learners One of the challenging things of acquiring English is phrasal verbs, which seem to be too hard for them to master, hence inevitable errors in using the phrasal verbs in communication: both spoken and written English In theory, phrasal verbs are generally considered to be idiomatic combinations of a verb and an adverbial particle The exact status of the latter is still being debated, scholars being divided on whether it is an adverb, prepositional adverb, postpositional prefix, special part of speech, etc Phrasal verbs are quite frequently found in the English language They convey widely varying meanings which are not always clear and often have little to Generally, the main function of phrasal verbs is conceptual categorization of reality in the speaker's mind They denote not only actions or states as "ordinary" verbs do, but also specify their spatial, temporal or other characteristics The ability to describe actions or states more precisely, vividly and emotionally is determined by the adverbial particle components of phrasal verbs By combining with these elements, verbs of broader meaning are subjected to a regular and systematic multiplication of their semantic functions While the English verb has no consistent structural representation of aspect, adverbial particles either impart an additional meaning to the base verb (e.g the durative verb sit merges with the particle down into the terminative phrasal verb sit down) or introduce a lexical modification to its fundamental semantics It is due to their special characteristics, learners always have to face untold difficulties to master phrasal verbs The phrase verb has a strong make no mistakes by writing nothing” So, obviously, if the teachers not want to see any of the learners’ misuse they simply teach nothing The teachers are in charge of studying the learners’ difficulties not only to find out the causes but also to discover how they learn ‘get’ phrasal verbs, what types of problems they usually make or where they are on the learning progress To deal with situations, some possible implications may be suggested as follows: In order to help the learners avoid making mistakes in distinguish intransitive or transitive, separable or inseparable ‘get’ phrasal verbs, the teachers should give learners the suitable exercises concerning about intransitive or transitive separable or inseparable ‘get’ phrasal verbs as well as concrete examples, which are carefully analyzed so that the learners can remember and put them into practice As a matter of fact, it could be easier for the learners to remember ‘get’ phrasal verbs by concrete examples in contexts The course book alone is not enough for learners; teachers have to make use of supplementary material to fulfill the learners’ learning needs and to prepare more exercises for them to practice ‘get’ phrasal verbs Reading comprehension can be considered as a very effective way to help learning ‘get’ phrasal verbs with lexical and grammatical components More than that, if learners are crammed with a lot of ‘get’ phrasal verbs they certainly will not try to remember ‘get’ phrasal verbs or particles going with ‘get’ or they may forget most of them in a short time In brief, teachers should only teach ‘get’ phrasal verbs that appear frequently as well as common particles that always go with ‘get’; let the learners find out the rules of using unimportant terms, they will remember both the recurrent and rare ‘get’ phrasal verbs The last problems that learners have is lacking knowledge of semantic features of ‘get’ phrasal verbs, thus leading to disordering and dogmatic application of passive transformation As far as this problem is concerned, the meanings of ‘get’ phrasal verbs cannot be the combination of the meaning of each element to form the phrasal verbs Therefore, the teachers should guide them to find out the whole meaning of all elements in ‘get’ phrasal verbs in terms of both literal and idiomatic meanings, i.e they should provide them the skills of using particular types of dictionaries, as well as supply them with exercises required to match/choose the correct meaning of ‘get’ phrasal verbs in accordance with 44 appropriate contexts With a view to enhancing the learner’s competence in understanding ‘get’ phrasal verb, teachers should integrate them into various teaching areas such as vocabulary building, reading comprehension, translating and the like 4.2.2 From learners’ perspective The fact that learners are not quite interested and motivated in language learning, especially in learning ‘get’ phrasal verbs, because they are rather difficult for learners to remember their meaning although they know the meaning of all the individual elements However, learners should realize that the meaning of the ‘get’ phrasal verbs cannot always be interpreted as the composition of the elements alone From a semantic point of view, the meaning of well-established ‘get’ phrasal verbs cannot be fully inferred from the meanings of the elements that form the whole one Only with the passage of context ‘get’ phrasal verbs could become specialized In many cases, learners should be aware of the subtle semantic relationship between the elements that form the ‘get’ phrasal verbs, which give it a particular meaning, unlikely predictable from the meanings of the parts What have caused all these problems are nothing but learners’ inappropriate learning methods, their learning attitude, their laziness or even their lack knowledge of general English! All of these things resulted in learners’ discouragement in mastering ‘gets’ phrasal verbs Learners should be aware of the important role of phrasal verbs in understanding their future job’s documents They ought to stop wasting time on complaining, worrying and being unconfident Without learners’ internal effort, how could the innovation of teachers’ methods help improve their studying result? Learners should become more active in every language lesson, participate more in class activities, keep self-teaching and exchanging their knowledge of ‘get’ phrasal verbs with other phrasal verbs In other words, all of the activities and effort made by the teachers might be in vain if the learners not lend themselves in the activities The learners are the most effective tools that can best propel themselves in learning They must be active in their learning process Once, they see the important role of ‘get’ phrasal verbs in their current learning and the future jobs, they will learn ‘get’ phrasal verbs with their enthusiasm and great 45 motivation The more the learners master in ‘get’ phrasal verbs the more effectively they use Vietnamese equivalents In short, all of the above implications for mastering ‘get’ phrasal verbs would be more useful for the learners’ acquisition with the assistance of practice Doing exercises is considered to be a good way to help learners not only to practice what they have learnt but also to use these special verbs correctly and appropriately in communication 46 Chapter 5: CONCLUSION Recapitulation This study focuses on linguistic features of English ‘get’ phrasal verbs and Vietnamese equivalents It is due to their specific features, a written test has been conducted at HHT to check the second-year learners’ proficiency in understanding ‘get’ phrasal verbs The results taken from the test conducted at HHT later have been classified to help finding out some possible implications for mastering these typical phrasal verbs The syntactic and semantic feature of ‘get’ phrasal verbs can be found as follows In term of syntactic, ‘get’ phrasal verbs can have intransitive or transitive features, be separable or inseparable In term of semantics, ‘get’ phrasal verbs has non-idiomatic, idiomatic meaning as well as metaphoric meanings As ‘Get’ phrasal verbs have specific semantics features, they normally not have exactly equivalent translations in Vietnamese, but there can be found some similar expressions in terms of meaning By conducting the survey among target participants of second-year learners at HHT, some major difficulties when using ‘get’ phrasal verbs have been found: (i) Facing with difficulties in distinguishing intransitive or transitive, separable or inseparable ‘get’ phrasal verbs (ii) Failing to choose the correct particles (omission of particles, miss election of particles, and application of unnecessary particle) (iii) Lacking knowledge in semantic features of ‘get’ phrasal verbs leading to disordering and dogmatic application of passive transformation To deal with these problems, some possible implications have been proposed to help the teachers in teaching ‘get’ phrasal verbs in an effective way such as supplementing exercises, practice frequently and teaching ‘get’ phrasal verbs via learning vocabulary building, reading comprehension and translation It is hoped that the features of ‘get’ phrasal verbs have been pointed out and the possible implications for mastering them could be useful not only for HHT 47 learners but also for those who expect to acquire English as their second language Limitations of the study Lack of time and the shortage of reference materials related to the field under investigation as well as the constraints faced by the researcher, it goes without saying that there must exist mistakes in this thesis and it has not reached a satisfactory depth as it should To be honest, the number of selected examples of ‘get’ phrasal verbs and their Vietnamese equivalent for analyzing in this thesis is not plentiful enough The cultural feature is also an interesting aspect for the research, but we did not have enough time and competence to take it into consideration in this study Suggestions for a further study Due to the limited knowledge of the researcher, ‘get’ phrasal verbs could be put into investigation with only two major linguistic features in terms of syntax and semantics Perhaps, the pragmatics of ‘get’ phrasal verb will be taken into consideration in another work And more phrasal verb such as ‘go’ phrasal verbs, ‘take’ phrasal verbs, ‘put’ phrasal verbs should be dealt with in future time In completing the thesis, my best attempt has been made Despite all the limitations of the study, it is hoped that it will make some contribution to the betterment of teaching and learning phrasal verbs of the learners at Hanoi vocational college of high technology Furthermore, phrasal verbs are the large field that will be studied more 48 REFERENCES A.P Cowic and Mackin Oxford Dictionary of English Idioms 2nd Edition Bolinger, Dwight (1971), The Phrasal Verb in English, Cambridge (Mass.), Harvard University PressWorks
