Students of English realize very early on in their learning career that
prepositions present a problem. They collocate with nouns. adjectives.

learn that interested is followed by in, and good is followed by a t . and go
home has no preposition. Multi-word verbs, or phrasal verbs as they are
often referred to, present a very special problem. English can make verb
and particle (preposition or adverb) combinations easily and freely. The
word particle has been used throughout this book, in order to avoid
having to make the adverb/preposition distinction (to most students. the
word after the verb in a multi-word verb is always a preposition).
Multi-word verbs exist throughout the language. They express everyday
actions such as Turn on the light: they can also have a variety of
meanings such as Things worked out well. W e worked out the problem. She worked out in the gym, I’ve never been able to work him out. and The find price works out at f 10.
Given the complexity of the area. the surprise is that learners are very
keen to master it. They seem to sense that multi-word verbs are a vital
component of English, and spoken English in particular. There is also the
feeling that an understanding of common idioms will increase their
comprehension, though most students instinctively avoid trying to
produce them. The best time to address these areas is at upper-intermediate and advanced levels, when students already have a
certain grammatical and lexical foundation.
This book goes a long way to helping students to unravel the complexity
of multi-word verbs, preposition and adverb collocations. and idiomatic
expressions. Students will find staged guidance in understanding the
systems, and are given a variety of exercise practice in recognition and
production. Phrasal Verbs and Idioms will find its place in self-access
centres, for learners to study on their own: and teachers will welcome the
texts, listenings, explanations, and exercises. which hare clear aims and
are highly accessible for thorough classroom exploitation
