10 verbos frasais. Então, Eu gostaria de compartilhar isto com vocês.

So, I'd like to share these with you.

I'm not holding back any secrets.

Não estou impedindo os segredos. Estes são os dez melhores verbos de frase que você

These are the top ten phrasal verbs that you need to know and examples of each.

precisa saber e exemplos de cada um. Agora, em primeiro lugar, um verbo frasal é um verbo

Now, first of all a phrasal verb is a verb plus a preposition.

mais uma preposição. E muitas vezes em inglês, essa preposição

And often in English, that preposition will change the meaning of the verb.

mudará o significado do verbo. Então, por exemplo, "get" geralmente significa "receber

So, for example, "get" usually means "to receive something".

But, for example, if I say, "Get out", it means "Leave, exit".

alguma coisa". Mas, por exemplo, se eu disser: "Get out" isso

significa "sair" ou "saída". Então, o significado é diferente.

So, the meaning is different.

I think you can see how a phrasal verb is different.

And what's really special and interesting about phrasal verbs is that native speakers

use them all the time.

We use them a lot more than a more formal version of the verb, like "leave'.

I would tell my friend "Get out", I wouldn't say "Leave".

Well, that would be kind of rude in either situation.

But anyway, what I want to help you out with are the top ten phrasal verbs.

And this episode is just scratching the surface.

These are all phrasal verbs that are included in the new Go Natural English course that

the GNE team and I are working on really, really hard right now so that we can release

it early next year and so that you can be a part of it.

So, this course covers a lot of areas.

The phrasal verbs are one of five things that you're going to learn in the course.

It's going to be super awesome.

So, I just wanted to mention that I'm working hard on it, and I hope that you'll keep your

eyes open to find out more about it.

So, let's start with the ten verbs.

The first one, "come".

So, for example, "come by" means "to find".

"Hey, did you come by my keys anywhere?

I can't find them anywhere."

The next one is "get".

"Get by" means "to do the minimum amount of work required."

For example, "I'm just getting by in my English class, because I never do my homework.

But I participate in class, so I'm doing okay, I'm getting by, I"ll have a passing grade."

"Make for".

I say, "Make for the hills."

That means "Run, run away."

"Make for" is to go in a specific direction.

"Go for" is different.

You think that since "make for" means "go", "go for" would mean the same thing?

It doesn't.

Of course not.

"Go for" means "to pursue something".

"Hey, I think I'm going to go for a degree program."

"Put".

"Put up" means "to withstand something".

"I can put up with hot weather better than cold weather."

"Take up" means "to start or to begin something".

"So, I'm thinking about taking up a new hobby.

I really like sports, so maybe I'll take up a new sport."

"Break".

"Break into" means like when a robber enters your house without permission.

They break in or break into a house.

"Look into" means "to research something".

"Oh, let's find some information about the best place to travel over a next vacation."

"I'll look into it."

"Pull up".

"Pull up" means "to find", maybe "to research and to find some information".

"Did you know the information, the phone number for that restaurant I want to go to?"

"I'll pull up the information."

"Pick up" is "to start something".

So, I mentioned "I'm going to take up a new hobby."

Well, "pick up" is similar.

"I'm going to pick up a new hobby."

"Set on".

"Set on" can be "to feel determined".

"I'm set on helping you to become fluent in English if you'll let me."

"Keep on", our last one.

"Keep on" is "to continue".

So, I want to encourage you to keep on going with your English fluency.

I hope that you found these ten phrasal verbs really helpful.

And what I want to remind you of is that these are only one example.

I only shared one example, one phrasal verb for each regular verb.

What I mean is you can have many different combinations with a verb plus a preposition

to make a phrasal verb.

For example, with "get".

I gave you the example of "get by" and "get out", but there's a lot of different ways

to use "get", like "get into", "get up", "get down" and so on.

There's a lot: "to get around" There's a lot of different phrasal verbs that

you can use with a different combinations of prepositions.

So, it's kind of fun.

But they're essential for understanding native English speakers, and they're really essential

for you to be able sound more natural like a native English speaker yourself.
