Question

mark the italicized words as phrases and clauses.1 grand father bought tutu,the monkey,from a Tonga driver​

Answer 1

Clause: Grand father bought tutu

Phrase: the monkey, from a Tonga driver​

Explanation:

• Clause is a complete sentence that contain subject plus verb e.g. Grandfather bought tutu. So, even if we don't have the second part of the sentence, this sentence makes complete sense to us. Hence it is a clause.

• However Phrase, on the other hand, does not contain verb which makes it difficult to understand e.g. the monkey, from a Tonga driver​. So, if we remove the first part of the question, this part doesn't make sense to us. Hence, it is a phrase.
