Stop Sounding Like a Textbook
You say "postpone". A native speaker says "put off". You say "tolerate"; they say "put up with". Your English is correct either way — it just arrives sounding like something written down before it was spoken. Phrasal verbs are the gap, and most lists throw thousands at you at once. This book takes the 200 that genuinely come up in daily Indian working life, and gives each one the thing the lists leave out: whether you can split it, where the object goes when it is a pronoun, and which formal word to reach for when you are writing instead of speaking. Get the separable ones right and you stop making the single most common phrasal-verb error: "put off it".
