Grammar: Phrasal verbs
What is means phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs are made up or combines of a verb and a particale usually are preposition or adverb . Or sometimes two particales . the particale always goes to change the meaning of the verb and create fully a new meaning
ماذا يعني شبه الجملة الفعلية ؟
Example
Verb and a particle: go out ( Verb + particle )
مثال : الفعل مع حرف واحد
- Verb and two particles: looking forward to ( Verb + particle + particle )
When we put the verb and the particle together, they get a meaning that is different from their original meaning as separate words
عندما نضع الفعل والحرف أو الظرف معًا ، نحصل على معنى مختلف عن المعنى الأصلي ككلمات منفصلة عن بعضها البعض .
We are going to show how the meaning of a such verb will be changed when we add a particle with the following example
سنبين كيف سيتغير معنى مثل هذا الفعل عندما نضيفه و الحرف بالمثال التالي
I called Adam to see how he is
Called = to telephone
The federation called off the match because of the snow
called off = to cancel
How many types of phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs come in two varieties: separable and inseparable.
هناك نوعان من أشباه الجمل الفعلية: المنفصلة والتي لا يمكن فصلها
A ) Separable: means that the verb and the particle can be alive apart or together
Example
I take off my clothes. / I take my clothes off
But separable phrasal verb has to be separated in case you use a pronoun such as me – you – him – her – it
Example
I take it off
B) Inseparable: An inseparable phrasal verb forbids the placement of an object between the verb and the particle.
Example
Maria cares for the Orphans.
أيضًا ، عندما نكون أمام أفعال شبه الجمل اللازمة التي ليس لها مفعولًا بل تقتصر على الفاعل فقط ، فإنها لا تنفصل
