Explanation:
Answer:
Absolute
Prepositional
Participial
Explanation:
A subordinate CLAUSE (not phrase) contains a subject and verb, is introduced by a conjunction, and supports the main clause.
An absolute phrase combines a noun and a participle. (e.g. shining stars, crossed arms)
A prepositional phrase is a modifying phrase consisting of a preposition and its object. (on the table, beside the stairs)
A participial phrase will begin with a present or past participle and will always function as an adjective, describing a nearby noun or pronoun.
(e.g. PUTTING ON HER BOOTS, she trudged into the snow.)
a. will race
The verb phrase in the statement above is "will race". In order to better understand what verb phrase is, one must have a clear understanding of what is a verb and what is a phrase. A verb phrase can be the sentence's predicate or a clause. The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells what the subject is doing. A verb phrase sometimes serves as an adjective or adverb complete with a verb, the complements and others.
