Download or read book Phrasal Verbs written by Jacqueline Melvin and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This complete guide to over 850 Phrasal Verbs used in daily life by native speakers, also includes a section with over 200 business idioms and phrasal verbs. Exercises are included to test your knowledge on the most commonly used phrasal verbs. Cross that bridge and start mastering the language today. About phrasal verbs Phrasal verbs, or multi - word verbs as they are often referred to, can be rather daunting for non natives of the English language. A mistake in using the wrong particle or the wrong word order can completely change the intended meaning. This can lead to misunderstandings which can either be horrific or hilarious. Students of the English language are not expected to be able to remember all the phrasal verbs - they are too numerous - but they should be familiar with the most common ones and they should also be able to recognise their meanings in context. Phrasal verbs play an important role in the English language. There is no getting away from them. Every time natives speak they use them. Take a look at the ones below. Did you know that the following two sentences have different meanings? Peter hung up after a few minutes = he ended the telephone call. Peter hung up on me after a few minutes = he ended the call by interrupting the conversation abruptly, angrily and rudely. How about this one? I saw through him and I saw him through. Both have different meanings. I saw through him = I understood his deception/the mask he wore, whereas I saw him through = I gave him my support during a difficult period of his life. Now look at these two examples: Pretty flabbergasting! I've gone off cheese = I no longer like cheese. The cheese has gone off = the cheese is not fresh anymore. It is not good to eat. If you eat it you could become sick. The alarm clock has just gone off = Can you turn it off please? I want to sleep for another few minutes. Does this mean that the alarm clock is not fresh anymore? NOOOO!!!!! Does it mean the alarm clock doesn't like someone or something anymore? NOOO!!! Well what does it mean you may be asking yourself. You should be able to understand from the context. Out of context 'to go off' is devoid of any meaning whatsoever. In the case of the alarm clock, it means, it rang. Another example is: He turned on me = he either attacked me physically or verbally. He turned me on = he caused me to become excited. Now can you see why the wrong use can lead to numerous misunderstandings? Phrasal verbs can be separable, that is, as seen in the example 'he turned me on', and inseparable as in the example 'he turned on me'. There are also phrasal verbs which are both separable and inseparable Example: She took off her jacket/she took her jacket off = she removed her jacket. In this book you will learn and become familiar with each phrasal verb type. Good clear examples are set out to illustrate the meanings. ABOUT THE AUTHOR The author has been a teacher of English as a foreign language for over 18 years. Born in the North East of Scotland, she has spent most of her adult life abroad, teaching students of various nationalities how to speak English effectively.

Download or read book Phrasal Verb Fun written by Peter Gray and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-12-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second edition, revised and over 70% bigger than the first one. Most people think that phrasal verbs, verbs with more than one word, are hard to learn. As students we are given lists and lists of them to memorise, and we usually find the whole thing boring, complicated, and really hard to remember. This book is different. There are no lists and there is nothing to memorise. Instead, there are over 600 little stories, one for each verb. The fact is that phrasal verbs are not a logical system, designed by some maniac a few centuries ago. No. There are simply something that grew up naturally. Most natives don't even know the expression phrasal verbs. We never learn them at school. We know the difference between chopping down a tree and then chopping it up. We also know that when a building burns down, it is the same as when it burns up. Neither do we ever confuse put up your cousin with put up with him. If you use this book for about ten minutes every day, I money-back guarantee that in about ten days you will know more about phrasal verbs than 99% of all non-native teachers who teach English for a living. I also promise you that you will have fun doing it. Reviews for the first edition, which was Kindle only Phrasal verbs are usually a nightmare for us. Often we try out the "uncommon common sense" just to come to the wrong meaning, fools rush in where angels fear to tread. So I am very grateful to the author as he shows a natural way to learn those damned little things. - jartiblisimo (Spain) It's a brilliantly conceived book, not only the short stories really stick in your head and help your memory in recalling all those verbs, but also enables the reader to get all the subtle shades of a verb which a non-native speaker fails to appreciate most of the times. - haunted85 (Italy)

Download or read book Phrasal Verb written by Annabelle Jenkins and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-04 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day all around the world, learners of the English language are constantly battling with those irksome multiple word verbs which we all refer to as phrasal verbs. This book has been written as a guide on how to use two hundred commonly used phrasal verbs by way of exercises. There is also a glossary which goes more into detail on their usage along with plenty more examples. It is always best to learn phrasal verbs in a natural context through natural speech. Without context, phrasal verbs mean nothing. Level B1 to C1 grammar is continuously used throughout the book to enable learners to learn not only phrasal verbs in a natural context but also to become more acquainted with grammar structures. The author has not gone into detail about how to remember which particle goes with which verb. There are ongoing debates among linguists about whether or not this makes a complicated situation even more complicated. It does nothing to speed up the learning process if the student has to waste time trying to decipher particles before he or she starts to speak. Phrasal verbs are picked up naturally as students slowly progress in their studies. Remember, out of context even native speakers are unable to decipher their meanings.

Download or read book Phrasal Verbs written by Stefan Thim and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book traces the evolution of the English verb-particle construction (‘phrasal verb’) from Indo-European and Germanic up to the present. A contrastive survey of the basic semantic and syntactic characteristics of verb-particle constructions in the present-day Germanic languages shows that the English construction is structurally unremarkable and its analysis as a periphrastic word-formation is proposed. From a cross-linguistic and comparative perspective the Old English prefix verbs are identified as preverbs and the shift towards postposition of the particles is connected to the development of more general patterns of word order. The interplay of phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic factors in the loss of the native prefixes in the history of English is investigated. In this context the question is discussed to what extent the older prefixes were replaced by particles and borrowed prefixes, how the characteristic etymological and semantic properties of the Modern English phrasal verbs can be explained and what role they play in the lexicon. The author argues that their common perception as particularly ‘English’, ‘colloquial’ and ‘informal’ has its origin in the eighteenth-century normative tradition.
