Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of multi-word verbs featuring the verb take as the verbal part of the combination and their Croatian counterparts, as found in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring, which has served as the corpus for the present paper. Multi-word verbs are combinations of a verb with one preposition which have a more or less idiosyncratic meaning. This idiomatic meaning can present a challenging obstacle to a learner or a non-native speaker. Multi word-verbs are categorized into three groups: phrasal verb, prepositional verbs and phrasal prepositional verbs. Phrasal verbs are the most numerous of the three and sometimes the term phrasal verb is used to describe any multi-word verb. Translating multi-word verbs can thus also be very demanding as they are a feature of English language and other languages do not have the same kinds of constructions. The particular analysis in this paper shows that perfect Croatian equivalents can rarely be found and in that manner translating multi-word verbs has to be approached cautiously.
