1. We decided to sail across the lake – Infinitive phrase.  

An Infinitive phrase is a sentence that uses an infinitive (to + verb ). Word that expresses action. “TO SAIL” would be the infinitive.


2. Tachels favorite pastimes are dancing and reading – Gerund phrase.

Gerunds are “ing” words. They always function as a noun. In this case the gerund would be “dancing and reading” accompanied by its modifiers.


3. We watched the children playing soccer – Participle phrase.

A participle is a verb ending in “ing” that modifies a noun. In this case “playing” would be the present participle which modifies the noun that in this case is “children”.

Which is a comma splice?
Mariana [72]

The answer is A) I learned to sew by taking a class, it was taught by a great teacher. The reason is because a comma splice is used to join two independent clauses together. An independent clause is a simple sentence that can stand alone on its own. Because the first part and second part of the sentence can stand alone on their own as two separate sentences they are both independent clauses. Thus A is an example of a comma splice.
