Teaching English phrasal verbs as a methodological problem in a nonlinguistic university

The article describes methods of teaching English phrasal verbs in a non-linguistic university. Two algorithms for learning phrasal verbs, both separable and non-separable, are considered, drawing on the concepts of N.A. Bokhach and J.Povey, whose researches are the most fundamental. The classification of phrasal verbs by N.A. Bokhach is based on determining the degree of deducibility of their meanings from the constituent components, while J. Povey's classification is based on the grammatical categories of transitivity and intransitivity, which makes it more objective. A number of exercises are provided to clear up our understanding of the two methodological concepts. Examples of phrasal verb correspondence to Russian prefixed verbs, as well as their use in a scientific context are also given.
