Can You Put Draw Out Sav on a Boil
Unit 137- Part A
We often use verbs with the following words:
in out | on off | up down | away back | round through | about along | over forward | by |
So you can say look out / get on / take off / run away etc. These are phrasal verbs.
We often use on/off/out etc. with verbs of movement. For example:
get on drive off come back turn round | • The bus was full. We couldn't get on. • A woman got into the car and drove off. • Sally is leaving tomorrow and coming back on Saturday. • When I touched him on the shoulder, he turned round. |
But often the second word ( on/off/out etc.) gives a special meaning to the verb. For example: | |
break down look out take off get on get by | • Sorry I'm late. The car broke down. (= the engine stopped working) • Look out! There's a car coming. (= be careful) • It was my first flight. I was nervous as the plane took off. (= went into the air) • How was the exam? How did you get on? (= How did you do?) • My French isn't very good, but it's enough to get by. (= manage) |
For more phrasal verbs, see Units 138-145.
Unit 137- Part B
Sometimes a phrasal verb is followed by a preposition. For example:
phrasal verb | preposition | |
run away keep up look up look forward | from with at to | • Why did you run away from me? • You're walking too fast. I can't keep up with you. • We looked up at the plane as it flew above us. • Are you looking forward to your holiday? |
