    1. gerund phrase - the verbal ending in - ing that is used as a noun is called a gerund

    2. verb phrase - just a regular verb and all of the words surrounding it

    3. adverb phrase - functions the same way as an adverb, which means that it answers questions such as when, where, why, how, etc.

    4. participial phrase - although a participle looks the same as a gerund, it is never used as a noun, but rather as an adjective, or adverb
