Phrasal Verbs Exercises For English Grammar

Online platform offering grammar exercises for language improvement 

Phrasal Verbs are an intrinsic part of English grammar and they are widely used in both written and spoken English. They consist of a verb and a preposition, adverb, or both and create a meaning different than that of the individual parts. For instance, ‘give up’ means to quit, a clearly different meaning than the verb ‘give’. Learning, understanding, and using phrasal verbs fluently is a significant step in mastering English.
