Remember: If the object is a pronoun, place it between 'cheer' and 'up'. Example: 'Cheer her up', not 'Cheer up her'.
Nouns can go before or after 'up', but pronouns MUST go before 'up'.
From Old English 'cēorian' (to make bright, to shine). The phrasal construction 'cheer up' emerged in Middle English to denote restoring spirits.
This is a separable phrasal verb. You can say 'cheer someone up' or 'cheer up someone', but if the object is a pronoun (him, her, it, them), it must go in the middle: 'cheer him up' (correct), 'cheer up him' (incorrect).
