Read Explanation:

A phrase is a group of words that function together to convey a meaning within a sentence, but they do not contain a subject and verb combination, making them a brief expression that is not a complete sentence. 

  • Definition: A phrase is a group of two or more words that act as a unit within a sentence, but do not form a complete clause. 

  • Structure: Phrases can consist of various elements like nouns, adjectives, verbs, and prepositions, but they lack a subject and a predicate verb. 

  • Examples: "In the park," "running quickly," "the big red car".
