Helps You Identify Parts of a Sentence If you cross out the prepositional phrases in a sentence, you can easily identify its parts such as the subject, verb, and other information. Crossing out prepositional phrases can turn this sentence… I was waiting in the back of the line for the ride since early this morning at 7:00. …into this: I was waiting in the back of the line for the ride since early this morning at 7:00. With the new, shortened sentence, you can now easily identify the subject as I and the verb phrase as was waiting. Easy, right? Why is this Important?
