Because he never got those things at his own home from his parents, so the only time he ever got any kind of attention was when he was with the others
Explanation:
A phrase is a group of words that express a concept and is used as a unit within a sentence. Eight common types of phrases are: noun, verb, gerund, infinitive, appositive, participial, prepositional, and absolute
A clause is any noun phrase plus a verb; they can be sentences, but they don't always have to be.
Example: He is sleeping on the bed. The first part of the sentence “He is sleeping” is a clause because it has a subject and a verb. On the other hand, the remaining part of sentence, 'on the bed' is a phrase because it lacks both the subject and the verb.
