Example (1a) contains the verb phrase made up only of the verb ''to hit''. Example (1b) contains the main verb ''see'', the [[noun phrase]] (NP) complement ''the man'', and the [[prepositional phrase]] (PP) adjunct ''through the window''. Additionally, example (1c) contains the main verb ''gave'' and two complements, the noun phrases ''Mary'' and ''a book'', both selected by the verb in this case.
▲Verb phrases are sometimes defined more narrowly in scope to allow for only those sentence elements that are strictly considered verbal elements to form verb phrases. According to such a definition, verb phrases consist only of main verbs, [[auxiliary verbs]], and other [[infinitive]] or [[participle]] constructions. For example, in the following sentences only the bolded words would be considered to form the verb phrase for each sentence:
