| Oct 28 at 1:51 | comment | added | JK2 | This is as confused a question as can be, so much so that it's hard to figure out where to start when it comes to giving reasons why it should be closed. So I've voted to close it. | |

| Oct 27 at 22:04 | comment | added | Greybeard | I’m voting to close this question because it is based upon misconceptions that (i) “to agree [with something/someone]” is a phrasal verb, and (ii) “is doing” is an identical construction. As a consequence, the answer will entail explaining phrasal verbs and verb groupings. (I also note from various comments that the phrasal verb definition seems to have descended into matters of opinion…) | |

| Oct 27 at 17:03 | comment | added | Lambie | phrasal verbs stand alone: one verb + preposition, as in: sit down, stand by, stand up and others. He is doing well. is not a verb phrase. It is a progressive verb: He is doing....an example of a verb phrase is: The car, parked in street, caught fire. OR Parking on this street is illegal. | |
| Oct 27 at 15:24 | comment | added | Edwin Ashworth | I'll leave others to decide whether verb group, verb phrase ... or what? is a duplicate. John Lawler answers. Also Is this a verb phrase or simply an adjective? (JL again answers). | |

| Oct 27 at 14:02 | comment | added | Barmar | There is a difference between "noun phrase" and "phrasal noun". See en.wiktionary.org/wiki/phrasal_noun | |
| Oct 27 at 14:00 | comment | added | Barmar | It's just because that's the definition of the term "phrasal verb". | |
