Feedback Phrasal verbs are verbs that consist of a verb and a particle and/or a preposition. Phrasal verbs are typical of spoken English or informal writing, e.g. letters to friends and articles in popular journalism. They cannot be understood based upon the meanings of the individual parts in isolation, thus, their meanings are unpredictable. The phrasal verb 'to speak up' has a meaning ‘to speak in a louder voice so that people can hear you’: ‘Could you speak up? We can’t hear at the back’.
B. speak on
C. speak above
D. speak out
