Explanation:

What is a phrase?

A phrase is a group of words without both a subject and

predicate. Phrases combine words into a larger unit that can

function as a sentence element.

A noun phrase consists of a noun and all of its modifiers. It can function in a

sentence as a subject, object, or complement.

Examples

Some American school boards have

begun to consider compensating

teachers based on how well they

teach rather than how long.

noun phrase = subject

Critics reject these controversial pay-

for-performance plans, maintaining

that they are unfair to teachers who

have unusually difficult students.

noun phrase = direct object

According to both sides of the debate,

teaching is a valuable profession, and

compensation for this important job

must be improved.

noun phrase = complement

EXAMPLES:

1. Bob, my best friend, works here.

2. I love baking cakes.

3. I love to bake cakes.
