Word order of phrasal verbs

Phrasal Verb = Verb + Particle (preposition or adverb)


1 Some phrasal verb don't have an object. 
Come in and sit down. What time do you get up?.

2 Some phrasal verbs have an object and are separable.
With these verbs you can put the particle before or after the object.
Put on your suit. Put your suit on.
When the object is a pronoun it always goes between the verb and particle.
Here's your suit. Put it on.

3 Some phrasal verbs have an object and are inseparable.
I'm looking for my pencils.
With these phrasal verbs, the verb (look) and the particle (for) are never separate.

Now, two webs with a lot of phrasal verbs and their meaning.
