when some phrasal verbs are used transitively and for the inclusion of reviews of points
of grammar not specific to phrasal verbs. Prepositions are the glue that holds English
together, but many students falter when using newly learned verbs because they do not
know that a preposition is also required, or if they do, which one. This aspect of English
is not given the attention it deserves because it is difficult to teach — there are no rules
that govern when a preposition, or which preposition, is required, and no teacher likes
to say "You just have to remember."
The hope of the latter feature, the discussion of points of grammar not specific to phrasal
verbs, is that combining practice with phrasal verbs and practice with a variety of
grammatical structures will increase not only the student's confidence in the knowledge
of phrasal verbs but also his or her willingness and ability to use them in a wider range
of situations.
There is inevitably a degree of oversimplification. That phrasal verb particles are
sometimes prepositions and sometimes adverbs is mentioned only once. No purpose is
served by differentiating between them, and the overlap between the two is confusing to
the student. Phrasal verbs are not identified as transitive or intransitive because this is
dictated by logic. Less common meanings of some phrasal verbs have not been
included. Adverb placement is presented and illustrated in simplified form without
discussion of the different types of adverbs — doing so would have gone beyond the
scope of this textbook.
iv
THE ULTIMATE PHRASAL VERB BOOK Student
And no differentiation is made between recognized adjectives derived from past participles and past
participles with adjectival meaning. The adjectival use of past participles (both phrasal and
nonphrasal) is an extremely important aspect of spoken English — something every student of
English should be familiar with — yet the dividing line between true adjectives derived from past
participles and passive sentences employing past participles with adjectival meanings is ill-
defined and problematic. Native speakers of English regularly use past participles in superficially
passive sentences with purely adjectival meaning. Whether the past participles are verbs or
actually adjectives is of no concern to the native speaker and is entirely irrelevant to the student

Some phrasal verbs are very easy to understand. For example, it is not difficult to
understand sit down or come in because their meanings are obvious. But many phrasal
verbs are very idiomatic. Idiomatic means that there is no way to know what the verb and
particle mean together by knowing what the verb and particle mean separately. For
example, every beginning-level student learns what the words call, run, off, and out mean,
but that does not help the student to know that call off means cancel or that run out means
use all of something.
Each section of this textbook starts with a FOCUS, an explanation of something
important about phrasal verbs. Then eight phrasal verbs and an explanation of each
important meaning of each one are presented along with one or more example sentences
for each meaning. Following that are several exercises to help you understand and
remember what the phrasal verbs mean and how to use them in a sentence. And like real
conversation, questions asked with I or we are answered with you, and questions asked
with you are answered with / or we.
And because there is a lot to learn in this textbook, there is a lot of review to help you learn it.
Every phrasal verb is reviewed at least twice later in the book. The more idiomatic phrasal
verbs are reviewed more often, and the more important meanings of phrasal verbs with
several meanings are reviewed more often.
Terms, Abbreviations, and Symbols Used in this Textbook
verb Verb refers to the verb part of a phrasal verb. In other words, the
phrasal verb minus the particle. In the phrasal verb pull over, pull is
the verb and over is the particle.
particle The adverbs and prepositions in phrasal verbs are both called particles
in this book. Many particles are adverbs and prepositions, and it
can be very difficult and confusing to figure out if a particle in a
particular phrasal verb is one or the other. Fortunately, this is
almost never important to the student, so it is a lot easier to simply
call them both particles.
p.v. phrasal verb n. a noun made from a
phrasal verb

Throughout this book, phrasal verbs that can be separated have three dots (...) between
the verb and the particle.
