What are Phrasal Verbs?
Phrasal verbs are combinations of a verb + preposition or particle - and the meaning of this combination is different from the meanings of the individual words. Also, one phrasal verb often has multiple meanings, for example:
Take off = Remove (take off your shoes)
Take off = When an airplane goes up into the air
Take off = When something becomes very popular very quickly
(this new song is really taking off)
English has more than 3000 phrasal verbs!
If you want to be fluent in English, then you need to know phrasal verbs!
Often, students who have studied English for a long time have difficulty understanding native speakers because of all the phrasal verbs used in everyday conversation.
Phrasal verbs are extremely common in everyday spoken English -- but because they are more common in spoken English than in written English, most textbooks don't focus on phrasal verbs. They may teach you a few, but English has more than 3000 phrasal verbs, and textbooks normally don't focus enough on this area.
Phrasal verbs are essential for speaking fluent English -- native speakers use them every day
