<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is 'participial phrase'.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the following sentence:

'The old man sat at the window,<em> remembering the days when he would have gone outdoors</em>'.

Here, the italicized words are an example of participial phrase.

A phrase which looks like a verb but actually functions as an adjective while modifying a noun in the same sentence is called a participial phrase.

So in this sentence, 'remembering' is the present participle and 'remembering the days' is the participial phrase. The participial phrase modifies 'he'.

Which of these words is an endocentric compound?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Most compounds in English are endocentric, that is, one of the elements (typically the right-hand element) is the head of the construction. Headedness is shown most clearly by hyponymy: the compound as a whole is a hyponym of its head. For example, traffic-light is a hyponym of light, but not a hyponym of traffic.

Explanation:

Therefore bittersweet would be your endocentric compound. Because something can't be bitter while being sweet.
