No. In this case, "phrase" is being used as a noun, not a verb. Therefore, this is a sentence fragement because it doesn't express a complete thought.
You're left trying to figure out "A phrase is what?"
In order to make this a complete thought you should add the predicate.
example: "A phrase can have many origins."
Or...
Do you just mean "phrases" in general. If so, then NO once again. A phrase is a group of words which contains neither a subject nor a verb.
example: Great answer
(prepositional phrase) In a heartbeat
The two examples are incomplete sentences.
yes
Yes. A clause contains a subject and a predicate. e.g. English language (subject) is an interesting language (predicate).
This is called a phrase.
The two parts of a complete sentence are the subject and predicate. The subject contains a noun, the predicate a verb. "My dog died." Subject = My dog Predicate = died
The simple predicate is more commonly known as the verb.Every complete sentence contains two parts: a subject and a predicate. The subject is what (or whom) the sentence is about, while the predicate tells something about the subject. In the following sentences, the subject is in brackets and the predicate is highlighted:(The dog) barks.(The dog) chased the cat around the garden.(The board) discussed the upcoming merger.A predicate has at its centre a simple predicate, which is always the verb or verbs that link up with the subject. In the above examples, the simple predicates are "barks" "chased" and "discussed".
The predicate indicates what the subject is doing.For ex. The teenager walked down the lane.The subject is the teenager.The predicate is what is bolded, what the teenager is doing.~Now, get me some chocolate~
FALSE
Compound sentences include a verb that connects the subject to a word or phrase in the predicate. The predicate will then rename or describe the subject.
Yes. A clause contains a subject and a predicate. e.g. English language (subject) is an interesting language (predicate).
a phrase is a group of closely related words without a subject and predicateA phrase is a group of words that does not contains both a subject and a verb (aka predicate). Therefore, it is not a complete sentence.One common type of phrase is a prepositional phrase. Some examples are:in the houseat the museuminto the waterOther examples:out of hereif you candinner time conversationasking her mom
A predicate requires a verb or a verb phrase. A predicate must also refer to the subject of the sentence.
This is called a phrase.
A complete sentence is comprised of a subject and a predicate. The subject is a noun or noun phrase, and the predicate essentially tells what the subject does.
Well a compound predicate is one or more verbs or verb phrase.
A simple sentence is made up of a subject (usually a noun) and a predicate (usually a verb).
The predicate is everything in a sentence that is not the subject. A simple predicate is a finite verb e.g. I am, or Stuff happens.
A group of words without a subject or predicate is a phrase.
The predicate is everything that is not the subject. The simple predicate is a verb or verb phrase. eg The man next door is a doctor complete subject = The man next door, complete predicate = is a doctor. simple subject = man, simple predicate = is The woman is waiting for her husband. complete subject = The woman, complete predicate = is waiting for her husband. simple subject = woman, simple predicate = is waiting
