Phrasal Verbs

This book explores the English verb-particle construction from a historical and cross-linguistic perspective. Challenging established views and tracing their origins in the normative tradition, the author shows the evolution of the
construction to follow a widely attested path and argues that the apparent
peculiarities of phrasal verbs in Modern English are epiphenomenal to other
structural characteristics of the language.
