  • The closest English has is phrasal verbs like “I turned the light off” or "I went to pick the kids up. Generally verb+particle = new verb. Sometimes you can put a noun between the verb and particle but not always (I looked the toys for vs. I looked for the toys)

    These are not just verbs plus postpositions as “I turned the light” and “I went to pick the kids” have entirely different meanings.
