Differences between...?

Hello,

According to google translator, there isn't any difference between some words. But I think there must be...

stress vs. stress out
run vs. run off
fill vs. fill up
check vs. check out
keep vs. keep up
watch vs. watch out
.
.
.vs.

What kind of meanings/ strengthenings/ emphasises do these additional words ( such as 'out', 'up', 'off' vs. ) adds to the sentences?

These two part verbs are commonly known as phrasal verbs and each combination has a different meaning from the root verb. Try Googling "phrasal verb dictionaries".
