Why a custom map beats a printable one for phrasal verbs

A printed sheet is handy for a quick glance, but a mind map of English phrasal verbs from a PDF is more useful because it follows the verbs your teacher actually assigned. Students often find that the verbs on a generic list rarely match the chapter they are reading.

Branches organized by main verb, such as look, put, and give
Sub-points that pair each phrasal verb with a short meaning
Editable nodes so you can add your own example sentences
Flashcards and quizzes made from the same source material

Example phrasal verb branches for a mind map

Breakbreak down (stop working) · break into (enter by force) · break off (end suddenly) · break up (end a relationship)

Looklook after (take care of) · look up (search for information) · look into (investigate) · look forward to (anticipate)

Givegive up (quit) · give in (surrender) · give away (hand out for free) · give off (emit)

Runrun out of (have none left) · run into (meet by chance) · run over (hit with a vehicle) · run away (escape)

Putput off (postpone) · put up with (tolerate) · put on (wear) · put out (extinguish)

Generate the full set

Built from your own PDF

Upload the handout, textbook chapter, or lecture slides you already have. The map uses your verbs and definitions, not a generic list.

Grouped by main verb

Each main verb becomes a branch, with its particles and meanings as sub-points, so related phrasal verbs sit together.

Explore and edit

Expand or collapse branches, reword a meaning, or add an example sentence. Then study the same material as flashcards or a quiz.

How it works

Upload your PDF

Add the PDF with your phrasal verb list, or paste notes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.

Generate the mind map

DeckOwl organizes the verbs into branches by main verb and meaning. Adjust anything that looks off.

Study from the map

Work through the branches, then turn the same content into spaced repetition flashcards or a quiz.

Phrasal verbs are easiest to remember in families. Grouping every "look" or "put" verb under one branch shows how the particle changes the meaning, which is the pattern most exam questions test.

On the free plan you can study the map in your browser with 3 generations a month. PDF export is included with Plus, so you can print a copy for your binder.

Frequently asked questions

How do I study phrasal verbs effectively?

Learn them in small families, such as all the "put" verbs together, and say a sentence with each one out loud. Review the ones you miss more often until they come back without thinking.

How many phrasal verbs should I learn in one session?

Around 10 to 15 is a manageable target for most learners, especially if you test yourself before reading the meanings again. Spacing sessions across the week helps more than one long cram.

Can I export the mind map as a PDF?

PDF export is part of the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study the map in your browser, with 3 generations per month.
