Some phrasal verbs are really common, others, not so much.

有些动词词组非常常见，但是其他的就不那么常见了。

But don"t worry we"re going to go over some of the common phrasal verbs using the verb, "pick".

Let"s dive in!

但是不要担心，我们先来学习一些和“pick”这个动词相关的常见动词词组吧。

让我们开始吧！

Phrasal verbs are made up of a verb and either a preposition or an adverb like "pick at".

Now, this is a phrasal verb that is transitive and inseparable.

动词词组是由动词和介词或者是副词组成的，比如说“pick at”（吃得很少，挑食）。

这个动词词组是及物的，而且不能分开。

If you"re not sure what that means, I"ve made a whole other video about it right here.

But this phrasal verb is inseparable because the words can"t be separated.

如果你不确定那是什么意思的话，这边有另一个视频介绍它呢，就在这里。

但是这个动词短语是不可分的，因为单词不能离开彼此。

They need to stay together at all times.

And it"s transitive because it doesn"t make any sense on its own.

它们需要一直待在一起。

而且这是个及物动词词组，因为它自身并没有什么意思。

You can"t just pick at. Pick at what?

你不能只是“pick at”。“Pick at”什么东西？

You need to pick at something like food.

Children often pick at their food!

你需要少量地吃什么东西，比如说食物。

孩子们经常会磨蹭地吃东西！

Or someone who"s distracted or disappointed, annoyed or upset, usually they pick at their food when they"re eating.

You"ve done this before!

或者是，当有人心不在焉、失望、愤怒或者是心情苦闷的时候，他们通常都不怎么吃东西。

你之前就这么做过！

When you only eat a small amount because you"re not really interested in it so you just push the food around your plate.

Or, I"ll just pick off the mushrooms.

或者是，我把蘑菇挑掉就行！

"Pick on". Now, this phrasal verb is not the opposite of "pick off" and that"s one of the annoying things about English phrasal verbs, they"re not always logical.

“Pick on”这个动词词组不是“pick off”的反义词，这就是英语动词词组的讨厌之处之一，它们毫无逻辑。

它很常见！

"Pick out" This is also a transitive phrasal verb and it"s most often used when you"re choosing or recognising something from a bigger group.

If you pick up on it, you learn about it in little pieces of information that you connect together in your own mind.

So for example, you might pick up on the fact that your sister is upset because her boyfriend broke up with her.

比如说，你可能意识到你姐姐很伤心，因为她男朋友和她分手了。

But you know about this not because she told you about it but because you observed her behaviour and heard the frustration in her voice.
