Explanation:

• In syntax and grammar, a phrase may be a group of words which act together as a grammatical unit. As an example, the English expression "the very happy squirrel" is a noun phrase which contains the adjective phrase "very happy". Phrases can contain a single word or a complete sentence.

• In language, a clause may be a constituent that comprises a semantic predicand and a semantic predicate. A typical clause consists of a topic and a syntactic predicate, the latter typically a predicate composed of a verb with any objects and other modifiers.

• In linguistics and grammar, a sentence may be a linguistic expression, like the English example "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." In traditional grammar, it's typically defined as a string of words that expresses a complete thought, or as a unit consisting of a topic and predicate.
