Phrasal Verbs – an English verb followed by one or more particles where the combination behaves as a syntactic and semantic unit.

Itu adalah deskripsinya dan karena saya bukan seorang linguistic, maka rada susah juga mencari terjemahan yang tepat atas deskripsi tersebut.

Berikut ini ada tabel mengenai beberapa phrasal verbs yang sering digunakan oleh penutur aslinya (native speaker). Native speaker lebih suka menggunakan phrasal verbs dalam percakapan sehari-hari dan menggunakan padanan katanya yang lebih simple (one-word verbs) untuk kesempatan formal seperti business letters, thesis dan lain-lain. Contohnya: menggunakan look into dalam daily conversation dan investigate dalam sebuah report.

Phrasal verbs sendiri ada 2 jenis. Pertama adalah NON-separable verbs, dimana preposisi HARUS mengikuti kata kerja. Contohnya: I check into them, NOT I check them into. Sedangkan jenis kedua adalah SEPARABLE verbs HARUS dipisah diantara objek dan preposisi. Contohnya: I brought the children up NOT I brought up the children.

Note:

1. Supaya postingnya tidak terlalu panjang, maka table akan saya bagi menjadi 2.
2. Non-Separable verbs ditandai dengan tanda (*), sedangkan separable verbs tidak.
