Phrasal verbs 1. Phrasal verbs combine a verb and particle with a particular meaning.

Phrasal verbs combine a verb and particle with a particular meaning. This set covers everyday separable verbs: turn off, put on, take off, pick up and give back. Pronoun objects go between the verb and particle.

Examples in context

Notice how each form fits its sentence. Read the context before choosing a form.
