Phrasal verbs are everywhere: in conversation, in series, in emails. And often no single word gives away what they mean – put off means “postpone”, not “take off”. This exercise book (in German) explains the most important English phrasal verbs for German speakers and gives enough practice to use them confidently.
Ordered by particle: up, down, out, off, on, in, into, away, back, over, through, around, along, across, after, and three-part verbs such as look forward to. If you know what a particle means, you can guess many verbs.
For adults at levels B1 to B2, for practising alone in 20 minutes a day. In the e-book, the exercises are numbered lists linked to the answers, for writing in a notebook.
