Introduction
Phrasal NounsWhat is a phrasal noun?
A phrasal noun can be defined as a combination of a noun and a preposition which carries a special meaning. Phrasal nouns are idiomatic; therefore, they cannot be translated word by word.
Note:The noun and the preposition within a phrasal noun are usually separated by a hyphen.
