PHRASAL VERBS
A phrasal verb is a verb plus a preposition or adverb which creates a meaning different from the original verb.

DON’T GET CONFUSED!
“look out”phrasal verb
To be careful.
“Look out! You should be more
careful. You almost run into a door.”
“look out”non-phrasal verb
To look from inside to the outside.
“We looked out of the window to see if it
was raining.”
The main characteristic of a phrasal verb is that the combination of words changes the meaning of the
verb.

PHRASAL VERBS
Intransitive verbs are verbs that cannot be followed by an object.
But a transitive verb can be followed by an object.

SPECIAL CASES
Some transitive phrasal verbs can take an object in both places.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE OBJECT IS A PRONOUN?
When the object is replaced by a pronoun things change a bit in separable phrasal verbs that can be separated and not.
When this happens, the pronoun for the object always goes between the verb and the preposition:
I made up a story / I made a story upI made it up but never I made up it
“him” is a pronoun that replacesI haven’t seen “my friend”.
I haven’t seen my friend turns intoI haven’t seen him.
