nouns.
It

Appositives are NONessential phrases, set off with
commas:

or “which one?”)
Prepositional Phrase
What else should I know about “pp”s?
*Review the list of prepositions to help
identify prepositional phrases.
*If the “pp” modifies a noun, make sure to
place it next to that noun or you will have a
misplaced modifier= CONFUSED MEANING!
Prepositional Phrase

(MISPLACED “pp” = CONFUSED MEANING!)
It sounds like Adam gave you the boat, when
actually …
I
read the note from Adam in the boat.
(Correct word order = CORRECT MEANING)
Prepositional Phrase
If
the object of the preposition is a
pronoun, it must take the object
form.
The
letter is for him and me.
She
and I went with you and him.
3. Verbals

A “verb form” used as a different part of speech. WARNING: VERBALS are
posers! They look verby but aren’t verbs.
1. Gerund (phrases) (verb + ing , acts as noun)
2. Participial (phrases) (verb+-ing, -en, -t, or -ed
acts as adj.)
3. Infinitive (phrases) (“to + verb,” acts as noun or modifier: adj or adverb)
