Caractersticas
1. Os prepositional verbs podem ser transitivos
ou intransitivos e so obrigatoriamente
inseparveis, ou seja, o objeto direto no
pode ser colocado entre o verbo e a
preposio.
Ex: Did you talk about me? (No: Did you talk me
about?)

2. Quando um verbo com preposio for usado,

o substantivo ou pronome ser colocado
depois da preposio, exceto na oraes
interrogativas ("What are you looking at?") ou
relativas ("This is the man that I was talking
to.")
Ex: Look at those children. = Look at them.

3. O significado do verbo com preposio

coincide, em muitos casos, com aquele do
verbo de forma isolado. Os verbos to pay e to
pay for significam pagar. A preposio serve
para introduzir o complemento, no agrega
nenhum significado novo ao verbo.
Ex: Pay for x Pay?

A: How much did you pay for that shirt?

B: I paid 100 reais.

Obs1.: no utilizamos preposies quando no

h objeto.
Ex: Listen! (E no: Listen to!)
Obs2.: gramaticalmente correto incluir um
advrbio entre o verbo e a preposio:
Ex: I'll look carefully after the children.

4. A principal diferena entre

e
se d no plano sinttico:
quando transitivos, os
exigem
a colocao do objeto entre o verbo e a
partcula (advrbio ou preposio) sempre
que o objeto for um pronome, ao passo que
os
no permitem a
colocao do objeto entre o verbo e a
preposio.

Ex: They called up Tedd. = They called Tedd up. =

They called him up. (Eles telefonaram para o
Tedd / ele.)
Logo, os Phrasal verbs transitivos
considerados verbos SEPARVEIS.

so

They called on Tedd. =

They called on him. (Eles visitaram o Tedd. /
Eles o visitaram.)
Logo, os prepositional verbs so considerados
verbos INSEPARVEIS

Obs1.: Quanto ao plano semntico, o significado

dos
pode, muitas vezes, ser
deduzido a partir das partes que o compem. O
significado dos
, no entanto,
dificilmente pode ser deduzido dessa mesma
maneira.

Obs2.: Na pronncia tambm ocorre uma

diferena importante. Nos
a slaba
tnica recai sobre a partcula, enquanto que nos
a slaba tnica recai sobre o
verbo.
I'll put 'ON my trousers.
Jack 'LOOKED for his
name on the list but he couldn't find it.
