Transitive and Intransitive Phrasal Verbs in English

In this English lesson we learn the difference between TRANSITIVE phrasal verbs and INTRANSITIVE phrasal verbs.
We start by looking at simple transitive verbs and what they are. Next we look at transitive phrasal verbs with examples sentences.
Then we learn about intransitive verbs and what they are. Next we look at intransitive phrasal verbs with examples sentences.
Then we compare a phrasal verb that can be both transitive AND intransitive and how they have different meanings and uses.
We also touch upon the position of object with some transitive phrasal verbs.

[@soniamayrink3295]

Excellent explanation. Loved it. Thank you very much. A question: Is there a phrasal verb for every verb? For example : "Tolerate" the phrasal verb is "Put up with", " Cancel" the phrasal verb is "Call off". That's my question.
I thank you in advance for your answer. (16/04/2022)

[@WoodwardEnglish]

For many verbs yes, but I don't think there would be a phrasal verb for each verb.

[@thaerabdulameer4681]

[@sharifullahjan7556]

Hello sir,
I hope you are fine.
I have a question, kindly help me.
I have studied in many books that object pronouns can be placed between main verb and particle but I saw some examples where object pronouns are used at the end.
Examples are:
Carol ran into her.
Carol heart about it.
Carol will get off it.
Her and it are object pronouns, aren't they? If so, so why are they used at the end.
I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

[@WoodwardEnglish]

Usually they are AFTER a verb.
There are some exceptions with some of the transitive PHRASAL VERBS where the object can sometimes go in the middle.

[@zainabkamara6791]

It is complicated to understand

[@WoodwardEnglish]

This topic is not easy.

[@JMacTheFanatic]

you CAN break down something (fat - for example OR the class material)

[@ashokkumarsingh4687]

nice sir!

[@WoodwardEnglish]

Thanks!

[@dechenangmo1078]

I am sent what its active sentence sir

[@omarbulayhid8554]

Thanks for the clear explanation 🙏, but i have a question I’m confused with: (An ill mother may need help from her child because she is too ill to 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁 of bed) the Q is , why is this an intransitive phrasal verb ?

[@vikas-ro3ik]

How will I recognize if it is transitive or intransitive?

[@WoodwardEnglish]

I explain the difference in the video. Also most good dictionaries say whether a verb is transitive or intransitive or both.

[@vikas-ro3ik]

Could you suggest me a dictionary?🙏

[@ricardohernandez8208]

I understand better the phrasal verbs according your video , but I get a question I hope you can reply me how to know to use them separate or joined form.. If exist and already you did the video send me the link please..

[@WoodwardEnglish]

It depends on the phrasal verb. When you learn a new one, you also need to learn whether it can be separated.

[@ricardohernandez8208]

@@WoodwardEnglish ok.. I heard that exist a list about the type of each phrasal verbs as well. Thanks a lot to reply me.. Greetings from. México I need to figure out better these phrasal verbs..

[@Sara-eh8hs]

i have a question please..
*She is too ill to get out pf the bed *
Is it transitive or intransitive?😓

[@akkibuzz2757]

The girls are dancing. Is this a transitive verb?

[@WoodwardEnglish]

Dance is a verb that can be used as a transitive verb and an intransitive verb. That is, when “dance” is used with an object, it functions as a transitive verb. In your example “dance” is not followed by an object so it functions as an intransitive verb.

[@tavetha_cat6882]

I'll fall asleep listening to this 😴 no offence I just don't like gramma 😫 but I need to learn😩
