    Phrases

    A phrase is a group of two or more words that does not have the subject and verb
    combination and does not form a predicate. It can contain a noun or a verb, but does not have
    a subject or predicate. Essentially, a phrase provides some sort of additional information or
    provides more context to the sentences you write. A phrase can never stand alone as a
    sentence; however, a phrase can nestle itself inside clauses that are either complete sentences
    on their own or ones that are dependent on the rest of the sentence. When a phrase is within a
    clause, it functions as a part of speech. Below are a few examples of a phrase:

    Example :

    1. The dance was held at the reception hall. (“At the reception hall” is a prepositional
    phrase. It does not have a subject or predicate, and it cannot stand alone as a sentence.)

    Example 2 revisited: While she is dancing, the audience cannot tear its eyes off her.

    In Example 2 revisited, “off her” is a prepositional phrase that is nestled within the
    independent clause identified earlier. It does not contain a subject/predicate, nor can it stand
    alone as a sentence.

    Understanding the difference It is vital to understand the main differences between clauses
    and phrases to ensure your writing is clear in both construction and context. If you are unsure
    whether a group of words is a clause or phrase, break down the words into the parts of speech
    to help you decide. If there is a subject and a verb with a predicate, it is a clause. If there is a
    noun but no verb or a verb but no noun and does not have a predicate, it is a phrase. Always
    keep in mind that sometimes phrases are built into clauses.
