Asked by Grace
I have the sentence: Kyle seems calm despite his situation. Kyle is the subject, seems is the being verb, calm is a subject complement adjective that describes Kyle. My question is, is "...despite his situation" an adverb phrase? Is it describing calm or seems?
Thanks,

I would say it's an adjective phrase, describing "calm." But I can see it both ways!

I think it's definitely an adverb phrase. Since calm is an adjective and seems is a verb, which ever the phrase modifies, it is still an adverb phrase.
