Answer:
Prepositional phrase: to attend a club meeting.
Use: used as an adverbial phrase or used as an adverb.
Explanation:
Prepositional phrases are those phrases or groups of words that contain a preposition and modifies the noun or verb in the sentence. Such phrases contain or start with prepositions and may be termed as adverbial phrases or adjectival, depending on what they are used for or what they are modifying.
In the given sentence <em>"I stayed late to attend a club meeting after school"</em>, the <u>prepositional phrase is "to attend a club meeting"</u>. This is easy to identify for the phrase starts with the preposition "to". Also, the <u>phrase is an adverbial phrase for it acts as a modifier of the verb "stayed late"</u>.
The nonstandard phrase in this sentence is "kind of". It is more likely to be considered as an american English slang rather than as a part of the native English language.
Among the choices, the only complete sentence is the second choice, "B. He could not wait lang. This is a complete sentence because the thought is already complete. All the rest of the choices did not express complete thought. The subject and the predicate are also connected by a linking verb.
