around nine o'clock is it a phrase or an independent clause or a dependent clause
Answered by Writeacher
Clauses have subjects and verb. No subject, no verb here; therefore, it has to be a phrase.
Answered by Jahnay
A phrase because it acts as like a noun. for example someone can ask you what time is it and you can answer with the phrase "around 9 o'clock"
Answered by Ms. Sue
Jahnay - this phrase is not acting as a noun.

It's a prepositional phrase, acting as an adverb, telling when about the verb.
