Using Correct Punctuation Quick Check Which phrase defines an appositive?

1 answer

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames or provides additional information about another noun right next to it. It typically follows the noun it describes and is usually set off by commas if it is non-restrictive (meaning the information can be removed without changing the meaning of the sentence). For example, in the sentence "My brother, a skilled guitarist, is performing tonight," "a skilled guitarist" is the appositive providing more information about "my brother."
