ResumoThis study aims to determine if the phrasal verbs used in English in the TV series Bewitched have the same interpretation of meanings in the translation to Portuguese in the subtitles. The research follows the model of Vinay and Darbelnet (1989) with focus on part of their theories called “oblique translation”. The study is an exploratory research and the episodes of Bewitched series selected were from the first and the last season, aiming at comparing the original scripts with phrasal verbs with the translation in the subtitles to Portuguese. The software AntConc was used to locate phrasal verbs through scripts; the software Notepad++ was used to compare the English and Portuguese versions; and the Excel software enabled the researcher to account for the data found. The results are shown in accordance with Vinay and Darbelnet's theory since they emphasize the transmission of a message to whoever is watching through the possible linguistic means each language presents over literal translation.
