2. Phrasal verbs are distinctive to the English
language. Also called 2 and 3-word verbs, they
combine a preposition with a verb. The
meaning of the resulting 2 or 3-word verb is a
combination of both, the verb and its
preposition, like many other verbs, phrasal
verbs often has more than one meaning, as
they are:

aumentar), admits a direct
complement and can separate
the verb from the preposition.

Carolina finishes making the
toasted bread.
