Answers

Answer 1
Answer: ‘Sneezinguncontrollably‘ is a verb phrase.

Verbsare simply known as the ‘action’ words – may it be mental, physical ormechanical. When verbs are paired with auxiliaries (helping verbs), they areknown as verb phrase. These helping verbs always go first before the actualverb.  We consider it a phrase instead of‘sneezing’ because of the comma, it emphasized the phrase. Sneezing if it hadbeen a direct object or subject could be gerund, but unfortunately, not on thissentence.
