3. Presentation
In his interview Peter Harrington used a number of phrasal verbs. Phrasal verbs are a common feature of spoken English, both formal and informal.
Unlike other language forms, phrasal verbs are more difficult to identify precisely. In grammatical terms a phrasal verb consists of a verb and an adverb.
For example:
So, we’ve had to speed up every aspect of the operation.
PH has taken off in a big way.
~~~~~ ~~~~
verb adverb
In semantic terms, we will define a phrasal verb as one whose meaning is different from the meaning of its individual parts.
For example:
You never make up lost time.(make up = recover)
3.1 Word order in phrasal verb phrases
The following alternative word order is possible:
■ verb + adverb + rest of sentence
move on to Zurich
■ verb + adverb + object
tie up a deal
■ verb + object + adverb
tie a deal up
■ verb + object pronoun + adverb
tie it up (Not: tie up it)
3.2 Common adverbs used in phrasal verbs
about along away back down forward in off on out over round through up
3.3 Phrasal verbs vs. verb + preposition
