Definition
 Multi-word verb (phrasal verb) is a special
kind of verb that consists of two (or three)
parts:

 The first part is always a verb.


 The next part is a word such as across, after,
away, back, down, in, into, off, on, out, over,
or up.

 In a phrasal verb, this second part is called


a particle.

Separable Phrasal Verbs

Multi-word Verbs
Separable Phrasal Verbs
 Rule 1. With separable phrasal verbs, it is possible
to move the particle after a noun object. However,
it is for informal writing.
 Rule 2. With separable phrasal verbs, you
must separate the verb and particle when a
pronoun is used as the object.
 Rule 3. Separable phrasal verbs often use these
nine particles: up, down, on, off, in, out, away,
back, over.
 Rule 4. Be careful with phrasal verbs using on
because some are separable but others are non-
separable. For example, put on is separable, but
call on is non-separable.
