Phrasal Verbs!

I think phrasal verbs are important in English speaking. I was studying phrasal verbs and I figured out that numbers of phrasal verbs are too much. So I thought perhaps I could extract the meaning from adverb/preposition that adds to the main verb. Of course those have not necessarily the same meaning. They usually have more than one meanings, which can have very poor relation with the original adv/prep, can you give me some of those meanings? I will try to add some of them myself.
