use the drop-down menus to identify the underlined phrase in each sentence.
a statue of great size stood in front of the castle.
lets take a photograph of the beautiful mountair
the family who lives next door asked me to baby
(adjectival phrase
adverbial phrase
verbal phrase)
Brief Explanations
- For "A statue of great size stood in front of the castle": "of great size" describes the statue (a noun), so it's an adjectival phrase.
- For "Let's take a photograph of the beautiful mountain": "of the beautiful mountain" describes the photograph (a noun), so it's an adjectival phrase.
- For "The family who lives next door asked me to baby - sit": "next door" describes where the family lives (modifies the verb "lives" in the relative clause, acting as an adverbial to show location), so it's an adverbial phrase. But since the drop - down has adjectival, adverbial, verbal, and the first two underlined phrases are adjectival (modifying nouns), let's focus on the first sentence's underlined phrase "of great size": it functions as an adjective to describe "statue", so it's an adjectival phrase.
