Dear students,
Phrasal verbs contain a main verb and a particle (a preposition or adverb) that together have their own meaning.
E.g:
Main verb = turn
Particle = on
Turn on = start (a machine)
Let's start....
The phrasal verbs I would like to share with you this week are:
1) to get in/to get on: to enter or to board a vehicle. To get in is used for cars; to get on is used for all other forms of transportation
2) to get out of/ to get off: to leave or to descend from a vehicle. To get out of is used for cars; to get off is used for all other forms of transportation.
3) To put on: to place on oneself (usually said of clothes) (S)*
4) To take off: to remove (usually said of clothes) (S)
5) To come up with: to find, to discover
* The symbol (S) indicates that the phrasal verb is separable.
E.g:
- Mary put on her coat and left the room
- Put your hat on before you leave the house
