  • 'Around' in the second sentence is functioning as an adverb because it modifies the verb 'ran' and provides information about where the action took place.
  • 'At Night' in the third sentence is a prepositional phrase as it consists of a preposition plus its object(night) and function as the adverb in the sentence.
  • 'Disgruntled' in the fourth sentence functions as an adjective as it qualifies the noun 'engineers' in the sentence.
  • 'Along the river bank' is also functioning as a prepositional phrase which is acting as an adverb to modify the verb 'strolled.'
  • 'Nightly' is the adverb in the next sentence as it describes the manner in which the action was done.
  • 'Engineers' in the next sentence is the noun as it refers to the class of a people and acts as the subject in the sentence.
  • 'In the union' is also a prepositional phrase which is acting as an adjective to qualify the noun in the sentence.
  • 'Union' in the last sentence is the object of the preposition as it is followed by a preposition and forms the prepositional phrase to act like an adjective in the sentence.
