2 Look over your Grammar Quiz

3 Phrases versus Clauses
Clause: A group of words that contains a verb and either forms part of a sentence or is a complete sentence in itself. For example: I went to the bank and drew out some money. [clause] [clause] Phrase: A small group of words that forms a meaningful unit within a clause, for example the red dress; in the city

4 PHrases A phrase is a related group of words. The words work together as a "unit," but they do not have a subject and a verb. Examples of Phrases 1. the boy on the bus (noun phrase) 2. will be running (verb phrase) 3. in the kitchen (prepositional phrase) 4. very quickly (adverb phrase) 5. Martha and Jan (noun phrase)

5 Clauses A clause is a group of words that does have both a subject and a verb. Some clauses are independent, meaning that they express a complete thought. An independent clause is the same as a complete sentence. Some clauses are dependent, meaning that they cannot stand alone. They do have a subject and a verb, but they do not express a complete thought. Another word for dependent is subordinate. Examples of Clauses 1. When I get home (dependent or subordinate clause) 2. The lights are not on. (independent clause) 3. When you wake up (dependent or subordinate clause) 4. Put it on the shelf. (independent clause-understood subject "you) 5. Since it fell on the floor (dependent or subordinate clause)

Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life; Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife. The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, And the continuance of their parents' rage, Which, but their children's end, nought could remove, Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage; The which if you with patient ears attend, What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. Group One: Pink Group Two: Red Group Three: Orange Group Four: Green Group Five: Blue Group Six: Purple
