Phrasal Verbs with IN Exercises

The particle in appears in many useful English phrasal verbs. It often suggests entry, inclusion, or involvement. For example, come in means to enter a room, fill in means to complete a form or document, and join in means to start taking part in an activity. These phrasal verbs are important for both daily life and formal situations — you might "check in" at a hotel, "hand in" an assignment at school, or "fit in" with a new group of colleagues at work.

Some phrasal verbs with in are separable: "Fill the form in" or "Fill in the form" — both work, but with pronouns it must be "Fill it in." Others are inseparable, especially three-word verbs like believe in (trust that something exists or is right) and result in (cause a particular outcome). An interesting point about in is the difference between British and American usage: British English prefers "fill in a form" while American English often uses "fill out a form." Both are correct, but for Cambridge and IELTS exams you should use the British form. Phrasal verbs with in are commonly tested at B1 and B2 levels, so learning the most frequent ones will give you a clear advantage.
