put up with, come up with, team up with, catch up with….. 這些字好像很眼熟對吧？
大家都知道「catch」是抓住的意思，那麼「catch up with」呢？這三個字你都懂，組在一起卻不麼確定它的意思嗎？而「put」是放，「put up with」又到底是什麼呢？
那今天就來好好看看動詞片語吧！
他們叫做—phrasal verb！
到底是何方神聖呢？
先來看看影片吧！
Table of Contents
一、Phrasal Verb的意思
phrasal verb 或是稱為 compound verb 指的是片語動詞，是由兩到三個字組成的動詞，而這兩三個詞要合在一起才有特定的意思，分開則無意義了
「片語」對於東方人來說是不習慣的用法，我們在學英文時總是想到單一一個字，比方說，「說服某人」大家第一個想到的說法是什麼呢？
我敢打賭你第一個想到的一定是「persuade」這個字，絕對不會是片語動詞「talk into」
但外國人卻非常常用片語動詞，一用它，整句英文都活了起來！
小編幫各位整理影片中的片語動詞們：
1.come up with–想到
They come up with the solution.
2.put up with–忍受
She put up with the bad habit of her boyfriend because she loves him.
3.catch up with 這句有非常多的意思！！！注意了！
在影片中作者提到了兩個意思，第一個是交換意見exchange information的意思，第二個是承受自己做過事的後果，比方說”His bad decisions caught up with him.”他之前的錯誤決定現在深深地影響他，哇！這句很難用表現上的字詞去想它的意思吧！
4.team up with 和(某人)一起合作，要不要加with是看語句決定的，比方說，可以是I team up with you. 也可以是Batman and Robin always team up.
二、如何辨識Phrasal Verb？
三個字都看得懂，組在一起卻瞬間看不懂的感覺是不是超級差？
小編在這裡偷偷告訴大家幾個小撇步
- 首先，當然是要看看動詞，畢竟是由某幾個動詞組成的，意思一定不可能難遠北轍嘛！
- 再來，就是看看動詞後面接的介系詞，是up還是with呢？是on還是off呢？大略了解介系詞的意思，再與前面的動詞組在一起看看
- 第一步驟跟第二步驟都做過了後，就看看前後文的意思，這個片語動詞跟前後文聯結起來大概是什麼意思呢？大家應該要廣泛的閱讀，才能更有語感，看上下文就能了解整篇大概意思
- 最後就是大膽的猜！與感覺！了，用久了其實就熟悉了，這種動詞很難硬背，因為都是簡單的字詞組在一起，硬背會把每一句都混淆了，靠的是平常多練習、閱讀時勇敢的猜猜看，還有用語感的感覺去feel~~~用久了你就是pro了！
以下由 商業英文世界觀 提供 一些常用的例句
1. We look forward to having a nice trip with you. 期待
2. Please, carry on talking. I didn’t mean to interrupt you. 繼續(談話)
3.I hope you two can work out your problems. 解決(問題) — 這個很常用呦！一用就有外國人的感覺！快記住！
4. Who is going to fill in while you’re gone? 代理
5. I think we should go on with the meeting and stop wasting time. 繼續
6. We’re sorry that we’ll have to turn down your offer. 拒絕—這個也是非常常用
還想要學更多的片語嗎？
記得要生活化的使用它們，當外國人說時，就馬上記下來！
一種片語動詞也不一定只有單一意思喔！一定要注意前後文與使用的場合
