A phrasal verb is a short two-word (01' sometimes threeword) phrase made up oí a verb, sueh as get, give, make and see, and an adverb (an adverbial particle) or a preposition, sueh as in, off, out and up. Because a phrasal verb is a form of idiom it has a meaning whieh 'is different from the sum of its parts', In other words, knowing what the verb and adverb 01' preposition mean will not necessarily help you understand the combination when they are usecl together as a phrasal verbo For example, you may know the rneaning of zhe verb poltsh, but may not know that the combination 'to polish off' means to finish something quickly and easily. Similarly, you may know the meaning of the verb chew, but may not know that whenyou chew someone out you strongly cr iticize them.  This guide is designed to help anyone who wants to know about phrasal verbs, including not only what they mean but also how to use them. 'I'hamost commonly used phrasal verbs in British and American English are represented here, clearly labelled.  Each phrasal verb has its own entry with a full-sentence definition, which allows phrasal verbs to be shown in their correct grammatical contexto Information is also given on which register 01' level of language the phrasal verb belongs -too Synonyms 01' near-synonyms are shown at the end of definitions, as are cross-references to other phrasal verbs if they are useful for comparison.
