OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought it was that 2 but i wasnt sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Maybe this will help, I got the definition of Predicate Adjective from Google. ( Many teachers often offer the following textbook definition of a predicate adjective: an adjective that is used to predicate an attribute of the subject of the sentence.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it could be a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you want I can give you the definitions for the other choices.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think that will help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A direct object is a noun or pronoun that receives the action of a verb or shows the result of the action. It answers the question "What?" or "Whom?" after an action verb. An action verb with a direct object is called a transitive verb. The direct objects on this page are italicized.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we know that it is not direct object

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Predicate Nominative: a word in the nominative case that completes a copulative verb, such as son in the sentence Charlie is my son.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Indirect Object: a noun phrase referring to someone or something that is affected by the action of a transitive verb (typically as a recipient), but is not the primary object (e.g., him in give him the book ).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it could be predicate nominative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still think it's A, but if you want to go with C than that would be your choice. I was never great at things like this without help lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By the way, are you taking Math Essentials B in Connect Academy/Connexus?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help with more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can try.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and no i am in k12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would you happen to know someone that is in Connect Academy and taking Math Essentials? Every time I ask someone for help I just get ignored.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same in history

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we should tell a moderator about this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

brb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There's hardly any people online in History so that would be why and in Math the people are just too busy with the chat pod.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true alright here is the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What kind of phrase is the underlined group of words? After the game, we will go out for dinner. A. adjective phrase B. adverb phrase C. appositive phrase

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the underlined words are after the game

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An adjective phrase (or adjectival phrase) is a phrase whose head word is an adjective, e.g. fond of steak, very happy, quite upset about it, etc. The adjective in an adjective phrase can initiate the phrase (e.g. fond of steak), conclude the phrase (e.g. very happy), or appear in a medial position (e.g. quite upset ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is b or c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An adverbial phrase is a linguistic term for a group of two or more words operating adverbially, when viewed in terms of their syntactic function. Adverbial phrases ("AdvP" in syntactic trees) are phrases that do the work of an adverb in a sentence.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. The appositive can be a short or long combination of words. Look at these examples: The insect, a wingspanroach, is crawling across the kitchen table.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok good because I didn't know what the answer would be.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Was that all or do you need more help? Because I'm still trying to get help for my problems in Math Essentials.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh that is all thanks for the help can i have a medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks i gave you one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks, btw you might want to write the definitions I gave you on paper or whatever for future reference.
