Writer's Note
"Pick up" is both transitive and intransitive and a separable phrasal verb.
- Transitive: When "pick up" takes a direct object (something that is picked up), it is transitive.
Example: She picked up the book. (The object is the book.) - Intransitive: When "pick up" does not take a direct object, it is intransitive.
Example: Sales are picking up. (No object is directly receiving the action.) - Separable: In some cases, the verb pick and the particle up can be separated by the object.
Example 1: I’ll pick the book up. (separable, object the book is placed between pick and up)
Example 2: I’ll pick up the book. (separable, object the book comes after the phrasal verb)
例子：She picked up the book.（受詞是the book。）
範例：Sales are picking up。 （沒有受詞直接接收這個動作。）
例子 1：I’ll pick the book up.（可分開，受詞the book放在pick和up之間）
例子 2：I’ll pick up the book.（可分開，受詞the book位於片語動詞之後）
