(linguistics) The adverbial component of a phrasal verb; a word, typically a short one,
which functions as an adverb accompanying and qualifying the verb component of a
phrasal verb.
In the phrasal verbs 'set up', 'throw away', 'shut down', 'carry out' and 'take over', the
words 'up', 'away', 'down', 'out' and 'over' are the adverbial particles.
The sentence 'He turns on everyone he meets' has very different meanings depending
on whether the word 'on' is parsed as a preposition or as an adverbial particle.

Prepositional
Agree with ,approve of, care for

Phrasal-prepositional verb:

Catch up with, get on with, look out for

2. Definition of phrasal verbs


This fact was also acknowledged by Bolinger (1971: 3) who gave examples of the
meanings the word had acquired by that time, for example, Abdul Taha’s 'two-word
verb' or Arthur Kennedy’s tentative 'verb-adverb compound,' which Kennedy
suggested and put aside later (Bolinger 1971: 3) None of the two above-mentioned
definitions have been used.

The definition of the term 'phrasal verb' must be broad enough for gathering and
examining enough examples of the errors of phrasal verbs. A too narrow definition
imposes the risk that it is not possible to collect enough data for analysing the phrasal
verbs which are used incorrectly. As there are different kinds of phrasal verbs, it is
necessary to find a definition which includes all of them and helps to distinguish
between a phrasal verb and a verb which simply consists of two (or more) words but
does not qualify as a phrasal verb.
