3. What is Phrase?  A  phrase  is a group of words that may have neither a subject nor a verb. Each word of a phrase has a meaning but collectively it does not form complete sense like a sentence. i.e. it does not give a complete meaning when stand alone. A group of two or more words that express a single idea but do not form a complete sentence . Fish Swims  in the water . She is sleeping  on the floor . They will meet  at the concert .

4. What is an Idiom? An idiom is a word or phrase that means something different than you would think from the individual words. An idiom is a phrase that, when taken as a whole, has a meaning you wouldn’t be able to deduce from the meanings of the individual words.  For example, what does “ give up” mean? Can you actually give something “up” not down. The phrase “ kill two birds with one stone ” is an example of an idiom.

6. What is Clause?  A  clause , however, is by definition a group of words that has a subject and a verb. A sentence can have any number of clauses and phrases combined together.

7. Clause Types Dependent and Independent Clauses 01: A   dependent clause  has both a subject and a verb, but is not a complete sentence and does not express a complete thought. It is dependent on something else: it cannot stand on its own. Some examples of dependent clauses include: When we get enough snow Because I was upset Until the sun sets

8. Cont.. 02: An   independent clause , on the other hand, is free to stand by itself. It contains a subject and a verb, and expresses a complete thought which does not require anything else. Here are some examples of independent clauses: I enjoy sitting by the fireplace. The sun set. This is the book I want to read next.

12. What are Phrasal Verbs? A phrasal verb is a combination of words (a  verb  + a  preposition  or verb + adverb ) that when used together, usually take on a different meaning to that of the original verb . A  verb  (e.g., “It  goes ”) becomes a phrasal verb with the addition of one  preposition  (e.g., “The light  goes out ”) or more (e.g., “She  goes out with  him”). Each additional preposition completely changes the meaning of the verb. Stand up  when speaking in class, please. Take off  your shoes before you walk on the carpet.
