Phrasal verbs with pick
Background: (背景) Phrasal verbs, or multi-word verbs, are verbs that are combined with one or two particles (a preposition or an adverb), for example, off or to make verbs with new meanings. These new meanings are usually non-literal. For example, to pick means to choose (She picked the most expensive meal on the menu) but to pick at means to slowly eat only a small part of a meal (She picked at her food for about 20 minutes before asking the waiter to take it away).
The meaning of phrasal verbs changes according to the particle that follows the main verb. Sometimes a verb-particle combination can have more than one meaning, according to the context in which it is used. Below are some examples of phrasal verbs which begin with pick.
Grammar: (语法)
There are four different types of phrasal verb:
Type 1 Type 1 phrasal ver rbs take an object (they are transitive): I turned off the light. He picked up a few words of Japanese.
You can separate the two parts of the phrasal verb with the object: I turned the light off. He picked a few words of Japanese up.
If you use an object pronoun (me, you, him, her, it, us, them) you must separate the two parts of the phrasal verb: I turned it off. He picked it up easily.
Type 2 Type 2 phrasal verbs take an object (they are transitive) but you cannot separate the two parts of the verb:
Im working on a new project. Im working on it.
Keep off the grass! Keep off it!
Type 3 Type 3 phrasal verbs do not take a direct object (they are intransitive) and you never separate the two parts of the verb:
Mark didnt stop. He carried on. Their money ran out after 3 months.
Type 4 Type 4 phrasal verbs are made of three words. They always have a direct object and you never separate these words with the object or the object pronoun: I picked up on her discomfort very quickly. She is looking forward to the weekend.
Some phrasal verbs can be both Type 3 and Type 4. You can add a new particle so that the verb can then take an object:
To let go/ let go of something She loved him, but she knew she had to let go. She loved him, but she knew she had to let go of him.
