What is difference between prism noun and phrasal verb?
Answers
Answer:
Noun. prism (plural prisms) (geometry) A polyhedron with parallel ends of the same size and shape, the other faces being parallelogram-shaped sides. A transparent block in the shape of a prism (typically with triangular ends), used to split or reflect light.
a phrasal verb is a phrase such as turn down or ran into which combines two or three words from different grammatical categories: a verb and a particle and/or a preposition together form a single semantic unit. This semantic unit cannot be understood based upon the meanings of the individual parts, but must be taken as a whole. In other words, the meaning is non-compositional and thus unpredictable.[1] Phrasal verbs that include a preposition are known as prepositional verbs and phrasal verbs that include a particle are also known as particle verbs. Additional alternative terms for phrasal verb are compound verb, verb-adverb combination, verb-particle construction, two-part word/verb or three-part word/verb (depending on the number of particles) and multi-word verb.[2]
