I'm looking for some kind of question about phrasal verbs.

He was put out as he lost his money.

This is fine, but you should really treat put out as an adjective, describing the way he felt, rather than as a verb. Tell us what you think 'put out' means in this case.

He is always put me in his mind, he want to make a trouble with me.

This sentence is ungrammatical and doesn't make sense. Furthermore, I can't see how you're connecting this sentence with the one above. Perhaps you're thinking of the phrase 'put something out of your mind'.

I meant that the person is plotting something against me or intends evil for me and does not want to get me out of his mind and leave me alone.

If the first one is supposed to be direct speech it should be: John called. He said, "I will be in Berlin for the next three days."
I have no other explanation.
I believe and to the best of my knowledge that the sentence in the English language is restricted to time.

I'm afraid I don't know what that means.

I'm angry, because I lost my keys.

I do not think this sentence is correct in terms of English grammar.

I'm angry no comma here because I lost my keys.

I do not think this sentence is grammatically correct. in terms of English grammar.
The only thing wrong with it was the inclusion of a comma.

"I am angry now because I lost my keys" is correct. Don't put a full stop inside quotation marks when the sentence continues after the closing quotation mark.

Okay, no problem. It a good new knowledge. That's good to know.
There was no need for this post. You should have simply added the "Thanks" icon to my response.

How will who teach students? I hope you're not talking about yourself.
There are hundreds of rules in English. No one said there were no rules. There are, however, hundreds of exceptions to all those rules.

I'm joining two other members in retiring from this thread. It's going nowhere. @sdgsdg You either don't understand or don't take any notice of most of our responses. I suggest you get a really good English text book and take some local classes so you can really nail the basics of the language. You're trying to deal with language issues that are just too complicated for your level.
