Talk:collect up

collect up
Tagged but not listed. As for why, I have no idea. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:38, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Without looking at the history, I'm fairly sure that it was tagged because in this case (and in many cases) up is just a verb-modifying intensifier that does not otherwise alter the meaning of the verb modified. I'm fairly sure that it wasn't listed because this page has been full of nominations. DCDuring TALK 20:22, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Same's true for wake up mind you. Mglovesfun (talk) 21:07, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
 * It's probably also true for quite a few of the 471 terms in Category:English phrasal verbs with particle (up). Chuck Entz (talk) 23:49, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
 * However, only certain verbs do this, e.g. we have collect up and gather up but not amass up or acquire up. Equinox ◑ 23:53, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
