The document discusses compound verbs in Spanish, including phrasal verbs formed from a verb and adverb, and prepositional verbs formed from a verb and preposition. It provides examples of separable phrasal verbs, where the direct object can be placed between the verb and particle/preposition, and notes that with pronouns the pronoun must be placed between. Prepositional verbs are given as always being inseparable, with the direct object unable to be placed between the verb and preposition. A list of example phrasal verbs and their meanings is provided.

When phrasal verbs are transitive (that is, they
have a direct object), we can usually separate
the two parts. For example, "turn down" is a
separable phrasal verb. We can say: "turn
down my offer" or "turn my offer down". Look at
these example sentences:

have no choice. We must separate the phrasal
verb and insert the pronoun between the two
parts. Look at these examples with the
separable phrasal verb "switch on". Note that
the last one is impossible:

between the two parts.

We cannot say "look the baby after":
