An appositive generally implies the word "noun," so we can just refer to an appositive noun as an appositive. An appositive is a noun or a noun phrase that renames a noun that is right beside it. For example, if you said "The boy ran down the street," adding an appositive could result in "The boy, who is the quickest, ran down the street." The sentence is still complete without the appositive; however adding the appositive presents more information about the particular character.
