Dear all,

expect, wait for and look forward to – they’re very common and useful verbs that you’ll need to talk about the future in English. The thing is, we don’t always use a future tense. In fact technically speaking, English doesn’t have a future tense. You’ll find that very often we use a particular verb to talk about the future in English instead.

These words have similar meanings so they can be confusing.

Phrasal verbs type 2 and 3:

Type 2 Non-separable phrasal verbs 1

They are transitive (= they have an object), but you can never separate the two parts of the verb. Prepositional verbs (verbs that are followed by a preposition and not an adverb) are always of this type.

You can get on the bus right outside the building.
NOT: You can get the bus on right outside the building.

I completely disagree with him.
NOT: I completely disagree him with.

Type 3 Non-separable phrasal verbs 2

They are intransitive (=they don’t have an object) and you can’t separate the two parts of the verb.

Watch out! There’s a car coming.

Unfortunately the deal has fallen through.

Why don’t you drop in on your way home?
