Question

What is the appositive in this sentence "joe bought a dozen tulips"

Answer 1

Based on the definition of appositive, this is a noun or noun phrase that is used to rename the another noun beside it. Basing on the given sentence above, I believe that it does not have an appositive. The nouns are Joe and Tulips, but no other noun that renames either of the two. Hope this answer helps. Have a great day!
