Введение

В английском языке имеется термин Phrasal Verbs (фразовые глаголы). Фразовые глаголы, не имеющие аналогов в русском языке, представляют значительные трудности ввиду большого их разнообразия, идиоматичности значений и неоднородности функционирования.

Фразовые глаголы делятся на глаголы с предлогом, наречием или предлогом и наречием одновременно, которые составляют единую семантическую и синтаксическую единицу. Примеры:

come in (войти), где частица – это наречие;

come across (найти случайно), где частица – это предлог;

put up with (терпеть), где первое – это наречие, а второе – предлог.

Цель данного пособия – научить учеников/студентов правильно понимать и употреблять основные типы глагольных словосочетаний с частицами. Частицы – это такое же эффективное средство образования новых слов, как и приставки в русском языке. По своему происхождению они являются предлогами или наречиями. Применение той или иной частицы изменяет значение основного глагола. Кроме того, глагол с одной и той же частицей может быть многозначным.

В приведённом ниже словаре-минимуме содержатся 30 наиболее употребляемых базовых глаголов, от которых с помощью частиц образуются новые глаголы. Для закрепления языкового материала даны тренировочные и тестовые упражнения с ключами.

Рекомендации

Систематическое изучение словаря – минимума и примеров на употребление фразовых глаголов позволит вам совершенствовать навыки употребления этих глаголов в устной речи и письме. А так как очень часто значение фразового глагола кардинально отличаются от значения базового глагола, то приходиться их заучивать.

На первом этапе вы знакомитесь со списком фразовых глаголов и их значениями. На втором этапе вы запоминаете употребление этих глаголов в примерах. На третьем этаже вы заполняете пропуски в предложениях частицами.

Приведенный мини-словарь может быть использован как справочник. Ко всем базовым глаголам даётся перечень значений на русском языке. Эти значения приводятся для справки, чтобы облегчить понимание глаголов с частицами.

Мини-словарь, знакомя вас с многозначностью самых употребительных глаголов, показывает, каким мощным словообразовательным средством в английском языке являются частицы. Рекомендуется систематически прорабатывать примеры из серии упражнений, содержащие глаголы с частицами.
