The verb phrase may contain one verb (simple):
Richard came yesterday.
Or more than one verb (complex):
Richard is coming today.
English also has auxiliary verbs which help the main verb to make up a verb phrase. They are:
be, have, do, and the modal auxiliaries will, can, could, may, might, shall, should, must, used to.
The shops will open tomorrow. The shops have opened today. The shops were opening at 9:00am. The shops used to open at 8:00. etc
That would be an Anagram. Try Chevrolet for example, turns into Love the car
A definitive word or phrase is words that make you sound like an important person. For example of a definitive word or phrase would be surely, without a doubt, clearly, definitely, positively.
Abbrev is the abbreviation for the word abbreviation. An abbreviation (from Latin brevis, meaning short) is a shortened form of a word or phrase. Usually, but not always, it consists of a letter or group of letters taken from the word or phrase. For example, the word abbreviation can itself be represented by the abbreviation abbr., abbrv. or abbrev.

You wouldn't use the word "specifically" or the phrase "for example."
The phrase "Sugar is Sweet" is an example of a metaphor. It is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable, in order to imply a resemblance.
A euphemism is a word or phrase that is used in place of one that is negative or unsavory. For example, "passed away" is used as a euphemism for "died".
From Wiktionary: " A word or phrase that means exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase in the same language, for example shutis a synonym of close"
A euphemism is basically an unoffensive, mild word or phrase substituted for a blunt, harsh word or phrase. For example, instead of saying someone died saying they "passed away," or calling a prison a "correctional facility."
I'm not sure if your question is whether a prepositional phrase is the same thing as a word group, or if "group" is a prepositional phrase. The answer is no in either case. A word group must express a complete thought. A prepositional phrase is part of a sentence and it has to start with a preposition. "In the group" is a prepositional phrase beginning with the preposition "in."
Some parrots can repeat an entire sentence

Not necessarily. Commas are a feature of sentence structure. There is no word or phrase in English that requires one.
