A phrasal verb is a verb followed by a preposition or an adverb; the combination creates a meaning different from the original verb alone.
| Example : | |
| To get = to obtain | I need to get a new battery for my camera. |
| To get together = to meet | Why don’t we all get together for lunch one day? |
Phrasal verbs are part of a large group of verbs called “multi-part” or “multi-word” verbs.
The preposition or adverb that follows the verb is sometimes called a particle.
