    GRAMMAR Placement of direct objects with phrasal verbs


    Phrasal verbs contain a verb and a particle that together have their own meaning.
    main verb particle
    turn + on = start (a machine)
    Many phrasal verbs are separable. This means that a direct object noun can come before or after
    the particle. Turn on, turn off, pick up, drop off, and fill up are separable.
    direct object direct object
    I’ll drop off the car. OR I’ll drop the car off.
    Be careful! With a separable phrasal verb, if the direct object is a pronoun, it must come before
    the particle.
    I’ll drop it off. (NOT I’ll drop off it.)
    Did you fill them up? (NOT Did you fill up them?) GRAMMAR BOOSTER p. 131
    Where will they pick us up? (NOT Where will they pick up us?) • Nouns and pronouns: review
