a phrase that begins with a participle and acts like an adjective
a set of two more words that together function like a noun
Instead of two more words that add detail to a verb and together function as an adverb

Answer 1

A participial phrase is **a phrase that begins with a participle and acts like an adjective**. It typically includes the participle along with any modifiers, objects, or complements. For example, in the sentence "Running down the street, the dog barked loudly," "Running down the street" is a participial phrase that describes the subject, "the dog."
