Question

read the sentence. we wrote in our journals for twenty minutes each day. which type of phrase or clause is underlined in the sentence? adjectival clause adjectival phrase adverbial clause adverbial phrase

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • An adjectival clause has a subject and a verb. The underlined part "in our journals" has no subject or verb, so it's not an adjectival clause.
  • An adjectival phrase modifies a noun. "In our journals" does not modify a noun here.
  • An adverbial clause has a subject and a verb. Again, "in our journals" lacks these, so it's not an adverbial clause.
  • An adverbial phrase modifies a verb (in this case, "wrote"). "In our journals" tells where the action (wrote) took place, which is the function of an adverbial phrase.

Answer:

adverbial phrase
