Which word in the sentence does the appositive phrase modify? That little bakery near the parkway, The Bake Shack, sells delicious muffins. A. little B. muffins C. bakery D. parkway

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My guess would have to be.. A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay this is tricky.... We have to find a word(appositive) that modifies a word.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm, Ok. Doesn't Little modify Bakery?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A's wrong. Because we have to find what "The Bake Shack", which is an appositive, modifies.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's your second guess?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The Bake Shake modifies Bakery. So My second guess would be C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You got it ! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:p Yay! xD
