    A Phrase in English grammar is a group of words that work together as a unit in a sentence. It does not have both a subject and a verb, does not express a complete thought, and can act as a single part of speech. Phrases help add detail, function, description to a sentence. Some of the examples of Phrases are given below:

    • He goes jogging in the morning
    • On the way to Parliament house, we caught sight of Prime Minister's car
    • They have been sleeping all day
    • The girl with curly hair is my cousin
