What grammatical structure is the italicized portion of the sentence?

English
1 answer:
My name is Ann [436]3 years ago
7 0

The portion of the sentencd "adressed to my sister" is a PAST PARTICIPIAL PHRASE. Past participial phrases contain a verb in the past participle, in this case "adressed" and a modifier. This type of phrases function as an adjective because they provide extra informagion about a noun, in this case the "package".

None of the other options are correct because there are no adjectives, adverbs or infinitive verbs in the phrase given. It is not an elliptical clause because there are no words left out.

Mom says, “Outside, the wind is roaring like a lion, but inside here, it sounds like a purring kitten.”
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C. It is a bad storm outside.

E. They are safe from the storm inside.

Explanation:

Outside there isn't actually a roaring lion, this is a metaphor. The wind is <em>like a </em>roaring lion, meaning the wind is very strong. But inside is <em>like</em> a purring kitten. It's not actually a kitten, but it means that the inside is safe and calm.

Do any of these include a prepositional phase yes or no Bessie Coleman refused to give up. Early pilots performed stunts. Women
PolarNik [594]

The statement that has a prepositional phase here is:

Early pilots performed stunts

Explanation:

A prepositional phase is usually found in the beginning of the sentence.

The use of the preposition is to draw out the meaning of a noun or a pronoun with respect to another object in the sentence.

The common examples of such phases include Before, After, By, Under, Over and many other such examples which are there to accentuate a relation thus given.

Here, the use is simple.

The word Early is the prepositional phase which makes the connection between pilots and 'stunts' that is different from the one  made by the word 'performed' between them.
