Multi-word verbs, phrasal verbs ou prepositional verbs so locues em ingls compostas de um verbo e uma preposio ou um advrbio. Ocorrem predominantemente com verbos de origem anglo -saxnica e so caractersticos da lngua. Multi-word verbs esto presentes no ingls desde antes dos tempos de Shakespeare, e traduzem um tom de linguagem informal, emotivo, podendo freqentemente ser classificados como gria. Os verbos preposicionados representam um srio e persistente problema ao nvel de vocabulrio. Devem ser encarados como vocbulos independentes dos elementos que os compem e portanto como uma palavra nova a ser assimilada, porque normalmente a adio de uma preposio ao verbo altera substancialmente o seu significado original. Cada um torna-se um vocbulo novo a ser assimilado. Embora o nmero de verbos preposicionados em ingls seja praticamente ilimitado, o aprendiz de ingls que dominar cerca de 20 ou 30 dos mais comuns, dos que ocorrem com mais freqncia, pode dar -se por satisfeito numa etapa inicial de seu aprendizado. Dentro da categoria genrica de multi-word verbs, temos os phrasal verbs e os prepositional verbs, os quais so normalmente compostos de duas palavras e freqentemente so chamados de two-word verbs, e os phrasalprepositional verbs, tambm chamados de three-word verbs. Veja a representao esquemtica dos multi-word verbs:
MULTI-WORD VERBS 1. Two-word verbs 1.1. Phrasal verbs 1.1.1. Transitive (separable) 1.1.2. Intransitive 1.2. Prepositional verbs (inseparable) 2. Three-word verbs = Phrasal-prepositional verbs

A principal diferena entre phrasal verbs e prepositional verbs ocorre no plano sinttico: quando transitivos, os phrasal verbs, tambm chamados de separable, exigem a colocao do objeto entre o verbo e a preposio sempre que o objeto for um pronome, enquanto que prepositional verbs, tambm chamados de inseparable, no permitem a colocao do objeto entre o verbo e sua preposio. Exemplos:
y Phrasal Verb: They called up the man = They called the man up = They called him up -- Eles telefonaram para o homem. y
Prepositional Verb: They called on the man = They called on him -- Eles visitaram o homem.

No plano semntico, observa-se que em phrasal verbs o grau de distanciamento do significado em relao ao significado original do verbo tende a ser maior. Ex: give = dar; give up = parar, largar de mo. Alm disso, phrasal verbs so compostos predominantemente com verbos monossilbicos, enquanto que em prepositional verbs, o verbo freqentemente bissilbico. Tambm na pronncia ocorre uma diferena importante. Em phrasal verbs a slaba tnica recai sobre a preposio, enquanto que em prepositional verbs, a slaba tnica recai sobre o verbo. Finalmente, podemos classificar uma terceira categoria de multi-word verbs: os phrasal-prepositional verbs, tambm chamados de three-word verbs por serem compostos de um verbo, um advrbio e uma preposio. Estas locues ocorrem predominantemente em linguagem informal. Relao de phrasal verbs, prepositional verbs, e phrasal-prepositional verbs comuns:
