Summary
Come back. Call back. Pay back. Give back. Get back. Write back. What do all of these expressions have in common? Well, of course, they all use the word back. But here's the interesting thing. In many of these phrasal verbs, back gives us the idea of returning - returning to a place, returning a phone call, returning money, returning something to someone, or returning a message. And these aren't unusual expressions that you'll only find in a textbook. They're expressions that we all use every day. So today, we're going to look at five phrasal verbs with back that you'll actually use.
