The verb phrase may contain up to three independent verb stems or roots.  All verb phrases must end with the appropriate form of the auxiliary ''itá'', which was originally a copula but later on accreted voice, tense and aspect markers.  The main verb precedes the auxiliary, and may be separated from it by a de-focused noun or by one or more adjuncts.
