Which words in the sentence form the participial phrase? Sitting patiently, my mother read a magazine in the waiting room. A. Sitting patiently B. in the waiting room C. read a magazine D. my mother read

The participial phrase is always used as an adjective phrase to modify a noun or pronoun. It includes the participle together with its modifiers, objects, or predicate words. The present participle form always ends in -ing, but the endings for past perfect and passive perfect participles may vary.
