What are phrasal verbs and how to use them?
Verb phrases are combinations consisting of a main verb and a particle (either a preposition, an adverb or both) which, together, take on a specific and often figurative meaning. They stand out as an essential part of conversational and written English. Learning them will not only enrich your vocabulary, but will also make it easier for you to understand and express yourself more effectively in English.

A few time ago, we decided to get into a new music project. We thought those rappers were gonna take over the Hip Hop scene. First of all, we signed a contract with them and bailed them out before they went under. If we didn’t get the paperwork done quickly the deal could fall through, so we filled out the royalty papers and started to sort out all the documents. But one day everything started to get out of whack. One of these rappers got incarcerated for 12 months due to outstanding charges and another got shot in a club after a brawl in the parking lot, so we had to deal with the artists’ troubles. Everything ended up in the trash and their first album was shelved forever… a true shame.
