In English grammar, a phrasal verb is composed of two or three words. One verb is combined with a preposition (at, on, in) or an adverb (up, down). Some examples of phrasal verbs with the verb GET are get at, get in, get out, get off, get away, get over, get back and they ALL have different meanings!
Each phrasal verb can also have multiple definitions. For example, GET OUT can mean:
1- Leave or escape
2- Become known (Somehow the secret got out)
3- Say something with difficulty (He could hardly get the words out for the tears)
4- Clean something (This detergent will get most household stains out)
5- Spend free time out of the house (You work too hard. You should get out more)
Phrasal verbs are used more frequently in everyday speech than in formal writing/ speaking. They are used often in everyday conversation by native speakers of English.
