Answer 8

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.

Do you think it actually is appositive?

It can also add to a subject. Since we're stealing things that pop up on Google, Kate, "Joe, a gourmet, likes good meatballs." is an appositive. Joe isn't a noun, but rather the subject.
