Фразовые глаголы — это глаголы, состоящие из глагола и частицы и/или предлога. Фразовые глаголы типичны для разговорного английского языка или неформального письма, например, писем друзьям и статей в популярной журналистике. Их значения нельзя понять на основе значений отдельных частей в изоляции, поэтому их значения непредсказуемы. Фразовый глагол 'to be over' означает 'закончено'.

Phrasal verbs are typical of spoken English or informal writing, e.g. letters to friends and articles in popular journalism. They cannot be understood based upon the meanings of the individual parts in isolation, thus, their meanings are unpredictable. The phrasal verb 'to be over' means 'to be finished'. |
