Default Wind Mit Question

Is the complete opening at the front entry in the picture below considered a gable or just the small gables on the left side and above the front entry door? Your thoughts.

The inward facing walls on both sides would also be considered gables

I put gable on the form, but I thought I'd get a few other opinions.
Thanks for the input.

No one can read he asked about a specific part of the house.
