Grade 7 Grammar Lesson 11 The phrase and the clause
An adjective describes a noun or pronoun.
If we use a phrase that acts as an adjective, we call it an adjective phrase.
An adverb is a word that adds to the meaning of a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. It usually answers the question how, where and when.
If we use a phrase to do the work of an adverb, we call it an adverb phrase.
