Perspectives on Formulaic Language - Acquisition and Communication
This edited collection draws together diverse international work on formulaic language such as idioms, collocations, lexical bundles and phrasal verbs. Formulaic sequences are more or less fixed word combinations such as idioms, collocations, lexical bundles, phrasal verbs and so on. Study in this area has grown over the past fifteen years, despite the fact that there are no academic journals or conferences devoted to this topic.
This manual is intended to help the student, to master a troublesome matter, the combination verb + adverb (or preposition), with or without a following noun object. These combinations are variously called "two-word verbs", "merged verbs," "compound verbs," "verb-adverb combinations"... We are dealing, of course, with structures like put it on, call up Mr. Smith, take this information down, in which a verb and a function word (adverb) work closely together to express a meaning. In addition, when an object is present, these words may be separated by noun objects and must be separated by unstressed pronoun objects. Such combinations are usually called "separable" two-word verbs.
