Welcome to the NJCLT's Phrasal Verbs category! In this comprehensive guide, we will dive into the world of phrasal verbs, exploring their meanings, usage, and providing numerous examples to help you become a confident English communicator.

What are Phrasal Verbs?

Phrasal verbs are combinations of a verb and one or more particles (prepositions or adverbs) that together create a unique meaning often different from the individual words alone. They are an essential aspect of the English language, used in both formal and informal contexts.

Understanding and using phrasal verbs correctly is crucial for effective communication as they are prevalent in everyday conversations, written texts, and business interactions. NJCLT aims to equip you with the knowledge and skills to confidently understand and use phrasal verbs in various contexts.

Understanding the Usage of Phrasal Verbs

It is essential to understand the various ways in which phrasal verbs are used. They can be transitive (requiring an object) or intransitive (not requiring an object).

Transitive Phrasal Verbs:

Transitive phrasal verbs require an object. The object can either come after the particle or be placed between the verb and the particle.

Example 1: I turned off the lights before leaving the room.

Example 2: I turned the lights off before leaving the room.

Intransitive Phrasal Verbs:

Intransitive phrasal verbs do not require an object and are followed by a preposition or an adverb.

Example 1: The car broke down on the highway.

Example 2: The car broke down a few miles from the destination.
