Activity 8: Separable & Inseparable verbs
Read the following information in the box before doing activity 8
Multi-particle verbs (= phrasal verbs) can consist of a verb and a particle (make up), or a verb and two particles (get
along with), two verbs (make do), two verbs and a particle (get rid of), etc.
Sometimes the phrasal verb is intransitive, which means it does not have an object after it (drift off: She closed her
eyes and drifted off = fell asleep) and that sometimes the phrasal verb is transitive, which means it needs an object to
make sense.
Finally, in some cases the object can be placed between the two parts of the phrasal verb or after the phrasal verb
(Drink up your coffee or Drink your coffee up), but that in other cases the object can only come after the phrasal
verb, (Swaziland borders on South Africa and Mozambique).
You do not have to learn all of them now, as the dictionary has a clear system to show how the grammar of phrasal
verbs works using abbreviations like sth (something), sb (somebody), swh (somewhere).
Look up the phrasal verbs in the box in the dictionary to find out whether they
take an object.
If they take an object, show with a tick (√) whether the object comes between
the verb and the particle, after the particle, or in both places.
Now choose 5 verbs from that box and make sentences with them:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Advanced Level:
You perfectly know that phrasal verbs are basic verbs which can combine with
different prepositions (or particles) to make verbs with completely new - and often
unguessable - meanings.
Phrasal verbs are used more in speaking than in writing. There is almost always a more formal way of
conveying the same idea.
Do you dominate phrasal verbs formed from do and make?
Yes?
No?
Activity 1:
Here are some different ways in which do up, make up and make out can be used. If it’s too difficult,
you can have a look at the chart below:
What is the meaning of the phrasal verb in each case?
1 Take this prescription to the chemist and she'll make it up for you.
2 Can you make out the little grey house on the shore?
3 A human being is made up of many, often conflicting, desires.
4 If you do up the newspapers, I'll take them to be recycled.
5 I find it impossible to make Jo out.
6 Let's advertise the talk in the hope of making up the numbers a bit.
7 He made out that he had never loved anyone else.
8 We're planning to do up our bathroom at the weekend.
Activity 2: Add the necessary prepositions or particles to complete this story.
Last weekend we decided to start doing ................ (1) our bedroom. We agreed that we
could do ................ (2) the old fireplace in the corner. As we began to remove it from the
wall we found some old pictures done ................( 3) in a bundle behind a loose brick. At
first we could not make ................ (4) what was in the pictures but we wiped them clean
and realised they all depicted the same young man. We spent an enjoyable evening making
................( 5) stories to explain why the pictures had been hidden.
Activity 3:
Correct the mistakes in the sentences below. Either the wrong preposition has been used or
the word order is wrong.
1 This weekend we are planning to make the seaside for.
2 Vast amounts of money do not always make of happiness.
3 He makes up for anyone he thinks can help him.
4 Your shoelaces are untied. Do up them or you'll trip.
5 They like to make away that they have important connections.
Activity 4:
There are a lot of other common expressions based on do and make.
You do: the housework / some gardening / the washing-up / homework / your best /
the shopping /the cooking / business with ..., and so on.
You make: arrangements / an agreement / a suggestion / a decision / a cup of tea / war /an attempt / a
phone call / the best of.. . / an effort / an excuse / a mistake / a bed / a profit / a loss / love / the most of
/ a noise / a good or bad impression / a success of ... /a point of ... / allowances for ... / a gesture / a face
/ fun of ... / a fuss of ... / a go (a success) of ..., and so on.
The more collocations with do and make you learn, the more you will get a 'feel' for the difference between the two
verbs.
Complete the following sentences using an appropriate expression:
1 Pacifist posters in the 1960s used to say 'MAKE LOVE NOT ................................. !'
2 It doesn't matter if you pass or not as long as you do ..................................
3 Though many companies are going bankrupt, ours made a huge .................................
4 Mrs Thatcher said she could do ................................. Mr Gorbachev.
5 You must make ................................. the fact that he's only seven years old.
6 Dressing smartly for an interview helps you to make ..................................

A phrasal verb is a verb + a preposition or an __ADVERB__, with a meaning different from the
original verb.
Some phrasal verbs are transitive, but others can be __intransitive___ .
A transitive verb can be followed by an ___OBJECT____.
Some transitive phrasal verbs are separable. This means that the object can be placed between the
_VERB_ and the preposition
Nevertheless, some transitive phrasal verbs are inseparable. In this case, the object is placed after
the _PREPOSITION_.
If the object is a pronoun, you must put the object _BETWEEN__ the verb and the preposition
2. What are prepositional verbs? Complete the sentences:
j.
Prepositional verbs are made of a verb + a _PREPOS._

prepositional)_ objects.

Basic level:
Activity 1: Read this short story full of phrasal verbs. Circle the phrasal verbs in the text and provide
synonyms for them:
I was brought up= criar in a small town in the countryside. Growing up = crèixer in the countryside
offered lots of advantages for young people. The only problem was that we often got into trouble as we
made up= inventar, imaginar-se stories that we acted out=representar around town. I can remember one
particular adventure in particular: One day as we were coming back=tornar from school, we came up
with=ocòrrer the brilliant idea to make out=fer que, aparentar that we were pirates looking for treasure.
My best friend Tom said that he made out= distingir an enemy ship in the distance. We all ran for cover
and picked up a number of rocks to use for ammunition against the ship as we got ready to put
together=preparar our plan of action. We we were ready to set off=sortir on our attack, we slowly went
along the path until we were face to face with our enemy – the postman's truck! The postman was dropping
off=deixar,lliurar a package at Mrs. Brown's house, so we got into=entrar his truck. At that point, we
really didn't have any idea about what we were going to do next. The radio was playing so we turned
down=abaixar the volume to discuss what we would do next. Jack was all for the motor and getting
away=escapar with the stolen mail! Of course, we were just children, but the idea of actually making
off=robar, emportar-se with a truck was too much for us to believe. We all broke out=estallar, posar-se
a ...de sobte in nervous laughter at the thought of us driving down the road in this stolen Postal Truck.
Luckily for us, the postman came running towards us shouting, "What are you kids up to= be up to =
tramar?!". Of course, we all got out of that truck as quickly as we could and took off=marxar down the
road.
Activity 2: Synonyms: Using the dictionary, look up the
phrasal verbs that are synonymous with the verbs given.
