This study aimed at identifying the most commonly used phrasal verbs (PVs) of Philippine English and analyzing their grammatical patterns and semantic features. It used the mixed-method research design specifically the exploratory-qualitative paradigm. In analyzing the grammatical patterns of the most commonly used phrasal verbs, the summary of the grammatical patterns of PVs illustrated by Quirk et al. (1985) was used as a reference. In classifying the semantic features of the commonly used PVs, the three categories - the free, non-idiomatic, the semi-idiomatic, and the highly-idiomatic construction demarcated by Quirk et al (1985) were used as a reference for tagging and information. While there also appeared unique patterns that may be distinct to Philippine English, findings revealed that the grammatical patterns of the five most commonly used PVs of Philippine English were generally in accordance with the major varieties of English. Moreover, the semantic features of these five PVs were generally free, non-idiomatic construction which means that the majority of the PVs only have literal meanings.
