🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

• Phrasal verb: A combination of a main verb with one or more particles (adverbs or prepositions) that together create a new meaning.
• Transitive Phrasal Verbs: Require a direct object (e.g., "She turned off the lights").
• Intransitive Phrasal Verbs: Do not require a direct object (e.g., "He woke up early").
• Separable Phrasal Verbs: The particle can be separated from the verb by the object (e.g., "Turn off the TV" / "Turn the TV off").
• Non-separable Phrasal Verbs: The particle cannot be separated from the verb (e.g., "Look after the children" but not "Look the children after").
• Multiple Meanings: Many phrasal verbs have more than one meaning depending on context (e.g., "pass out" can mean to faint or to distribute).
