Phrasal verbs are “multi-word verbs”. These verbs consist of a basic verb + another word or words. The other word (s) can be prepositions and/or adverbs that modify or change their meaning. For example ‘give up’ is a phrasal verb that means ‘stop doing’ something, which is very different from ‘give’. In the article that you have just read there are a few phrasal verbs like :

  • pull off : Manage to do something difficult or tricky/to steer or turn a vehicle off the road
  • roll down : roll down (something) or roll (something) down : to move (something) down especially by turning handle
  • head for : to go or cause to go (towards)
  • woke up : arose from sleep/realized
