Best Answer

a phrase is a group of closely related words without a subject and predicate

A 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 house
  • at the museum
  • into the water

Other examples:

  • out of here
  • if you can
  • dinner time conversation
  • asking her mom
