[Corpora-List] Phrasal Verbs

[Lou Burnard]

You could extract such a list with most query interfaces to a large 
corpus such as the BNC.

Using Xaira, for example, you could search for "any verb", followed by 
"down" or "up" directly, or within a specified number of words, sort the 
resulting context lines by the leftmost context (i.e. the verb) and then 
process the result to remove duplicates.
