GRAMMAR |
Many phrasal verbs are transitive, meaning that they take an object. There are 2 types of phrasal verbs:
Separable phrasal verbs
When the verb and the preposition can be separated, putting the object pronoun
in the middle of the sentence.
Examples:
| a. Laura fills the cup up with water. |
| noun |
| Laura fills it up with water. |
| object pronoun |
| b. Diego puts the trip off. |
| noun |
| Diego puts it off. |
| object pronoun |
When you use separable phrasal verbs, the object pronouns should not go after the preposition.
