Take the 2-minute tour ×  In Italian, translating from the
Italian wikipedia as accurately as I can muster,  a
"complemento" is a part of a sentence (one or more words) that
specify, clarify and enrich the meaning thereof.  Italian has a
loooong, punctilious list of various possible types of
"complemento", for example:  I can't find anything like this on
the English wikipedia - although adjuncts sound suspiciously
similar, I'd say none of these are temporal, locative,
modicative, causal, instrumental, conditional or concessive -
although there certainly are some that are, and not all require
prepositions:  The next closest thing would be adverbial
complements, but most of these aren't required for the sentence
to make sense, or tied to the verb.  share|improve this question
