    Phrasal Verbs

    Natalia Pereyra
    Let’s read
    Imagine a typical day in the life of Emma, a young professional living in a bustling city.

    As she wakes up to the sound of her alarm clock, she realizes it didn't go off on time. In

    a rush, she tries to get ready, but as she's reaching for her favorite shirt, she

    accidentally knocks it over and spills coffee on it. Frustrated, she decides to quickly

    change her out t and heads out the door. On her way to work, she gets a call from her

    boss informing her that she needs to ll in for a colleague who called in sick.

    Throughout the day, Emma has to deal with unexpected challenges, but she manages

    to carry on with a positive attitude.

    PHRASAL VERBS
    A phrasal verb is not your ordinary verb—it's a dynamic duo, a
    combination of a verb and a particle, where the particle can be
    either a preposition or an adverb.

    These pairings create expressions that often take on meanings


    distinct from the sum of their parts.
    EXAMPLES
    • "Look up": While "look" and "up"
    individually may suggest simple actions,
    together they signify searching for
    information, a common occurrence in the
    digital age. • CAN YOU FIND ANY PHRASAL

    • "Break down": The notion of something
    breaking apart takes a twist when "down" is
    added, transforming the phrase into a
    representation of something ceasing to
    function properly.
