Some transitive two part verbs (see Clauses, Sentences and Phrases) are phrasal verbs. Phrasal verbs have two different patterns:
• The usual pattern is: N + V + N + p
N (Subject)
|
Verb
|
(N) Object
|
Particle
|
She
He
We
|
gave
knocked
will be leaving
|
the money
the glass
our friends and neighbours
|
back
over
behind
|
• But sometimes these verbs have the pattern: N (subject) + V + p + N (object)
N (Subject)
|
Verb
|
Particle
|
N (Object)
|
She
He
We
|
gave
knocked
will be leaving
|
back
over
behind
|
the money
the glass
our friends and neighbours
|
When the object is a personal pronoun,these verbs always have the pattern:
N + V +N + p:
-
She gave back it
>> She gave it back
-
He knocked over it
>> knocked it over
-
We will be leaving behind them
>> We will be leaving them behind
