Hi Everyone,
The rule is that if a phrasal verb is transitive, then we can split it:
wake up - Julie tried to wake her daughter up.
If it's intransitive, then we can't:
When did she wake up?
My question is this:
Should the words that do the splitting, such as nouns, pronouns and possessive adjectives be the only words that deem a phrasal verb as being able to be split, or do adverbs also count?
Thanks,
