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: "Running down the street, the dog chased the ball." In this sentence, "Running down the street" is the participial phrase describing the noun "dog."
