    Try looking at this list: http://www.stoakley.org/The%2050%20Most%20Common%20Phrasal%20Verbs,%20B.T. %20Stoakley.pdf

    It looks pretty accurate to me, but I've never taken a poll or read a study about them.

    #51 -- stand up

    (An elderly library patron tried to explain to her Mexican housekeeper why "up" is used with "stand" -- so then called our library to find out -- it's a phrasal verb.)
