Phrasal verbs
They are made up of a verb and a particle or, sometimes, two particles. The
particle often changes the meaning of the verb.
Verbos frasales: Se componen de un
verbo y una partícula o, a veces, de dos.
Esta(s) suele cambiar el significado del
verbo.

• Full infinitive ( to + base form of the verb).

English.)
