PHRASE (PAGE 1) ABOVE PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE  A phrase is a group of related words that is used as a single part of speech that does not contain both a verb and its subject.  Ex. could have been hiding (no subject)  in the kitchen (no subject or verb)  to go with them (no subject or verb)

INTERRUPTERS  Use commas to set off an expression that interrupts a sentence.  Two commas are needed if the expression to be set off comes in the middle of the sentence. One comma is needed if the expression comes first or last.  Example: Ann Myers, our neighbor, is a fine golfer.  Naturally, we expect to win.  My answer is correct, I think.

INTERRUPTERS  *Use commas to set off nonessential participial phrases.  My sister, listening to her radio, did not hear me.  Paul, thrilled by the applause, took a bow.

APPOSITIVE PG. 7 (TWO SLIDES, SQUEEZE)  A noun or pronoun used to identify or describe another noun or pronoun.  Example: My oldster sister, Alicia, will be at basketball practice until 6 pm. (Non essential Appositive) (Non essential Appositive Phrases) Jamaica, a popular island for tourists, is in the Caribbean Sea. May I introduce you to Vernon, my cousin from Jamaica?

ESSENTIAL APPOSITIVES (PG.7)  *Do not use commas to set off an appositive that is essential to the meaning of a sentence. *  My sister Alicia is at basketball practice. (The speaker has more than one sister and must give a name to identify which sister)  The planet Mercury is closer to the Sun than any other planet in our solar system.
