Phrasal verb:

• A phrasal verb is part of a sentence that combines the main verb with a preposition/adverb/or both.
• The meaning of the individual verb word differs from that of all the words included in the phrasal verb.
• In the given sentence, stand by is the phrasal verb.
• The verb stand individually means to get up or stay erect.
• However, along with the preposition 'by' in the phrasal verb 'stand by', the meaning changes.
• The phrasal verb 'stand by' means support someone or something, to be loyal or faithful to someone at all times.
• In the phrasal verb 'stand by', stand is the verb, and by is the preposition.
