In this article we will study how phrasal verbs (PhVs) are dealt with in a representative sample of EFL student’s books of Secondary Education and Baccalaureate. From both a quantitative and qualitative point of view, the following aspects will be analysed: (i) whether PhVs are explicitly included into the index of each manual; (ii) whether there are any specific theoretical sections explaining their syntactic and semantic characteristics (and if so, what they consist of); (iii) whether there are any activities and/or exercises designed to practice and internalize these structures and, if any, to which methodological approach they attend; if any differences in the treatment of the PhVs may be observed both in general (iv), and/or depending on the corresponding linguistic level of each manual (v). |
