Sentence Analysis – Adverbial Phrases Worksheet

This adverbial phrases worksheet is designed for 6-12 year children to help them identify and practice finding a subject, predicate, and adverbial phrases in the sentences.

 We have discussed the  subject and predicate in a sentence  from a previous worksheet. Let us learn about  adverbial phrases  and how to identify them in a sentence.

What is an Adverbial Phrase?

An adverbial phrase is a group of words that together act as an adverb. It modifies other parts of speech—such as verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs and phrases.

 Let us understand this concept with an example:

• Samantha left her math book in the school.
• Samantha  is the subject, 
• left  is the predicate, 
• her math book  is a direct object, and, 
• in the school , is the adverbial phrase that tells us  where .

Let us try one more example: 

• Jonathan was walking very fast.
• Jonathan  is the subject
• was waking  is the predicate
• very fast is the adverbial phrase that tells us how.

Follow the rules mentioned above and find the subject, predicate, and adverbial phrases in the sentences.

Adverbial Phrase Worksheets

Related ela standard: l.9-10.1.

When you have two or more words that take on the role of an adverb in a sentence, you have an adverbial phrase. They are sneaky and can often go unseen. They are grammatical chameleons and can be helpfully applied to just about any sentence pattern, as need. They are often dramatic and can contribute a great deal to the overall role of the significance within a sentence. They often take on the role of explaining how something should or will be done in a sentence. These worksheets highlight the use and placement of adverbial phrases within sentences.

What Are Adverbial Phrases?

Adverbial phrases are the sets of words that serve as an adverb in the sentence. An adverbial phrase consists of multiple words. The basic function of the adverbial phrase is to modify the other terms in a sentence. These terms that are modified include adverbs, adjectives, and verb. Adverbial phrases explain when, why, and how some activity occurred. It always relies on the verb and subject of the sentence. An adverbial phrase is made up of at least two parts, an adverb and a prepositional phrase that comes before or after the adverb. The adverb in the adverbial phrase acts as the head of the phrase. For example:

Nathan parked his car. Nathan parked his car there. Nathan parked his car right there.

The first sentence does not contain an adverb, but the second sentence contains the adverb "there" to show the location where the car was parked while the third sentence contains the adverb phrase which consists of two words "right there". There are three types of adverbial phrases that are used in a sentence. These three types are given below:

In Regards to Manners

This type of phrase tells how some action has been done e.g. He talked to her in a sarcastic tone. The above example tells that the act of speaking was done sarcastically.

Using It With Time

This type of adverbial phrase states when an action was performed or how frequently something happens. e.g. she completed her homework in fifteen minutes. This example shows that the act of writing was done in fifteen minutes.

The Concept of Location or Place

Adverbial phrase of time tells us about where an action is performed. E.g.: He was sitting at the back of the seat She started her business anywhere near your place In the above two examples, the italic parts are pointing out the place of action.

Clauses and Phrases

Skip to the clauses and phrases worksheets and activities

Clauses and phrases are the building blocks of sentences. Every sentence must have at least one clause to be considered grammatically correct. Understanding how clauses and phrases work will help you better understand sentence structure. You’ll need to have a working knowledge of subjects, predicates, and objects before you continue .

A sentence can have more than one clause, but it needs AT LEAST ONE CLAUSE or it is a fragment, not a sentence.

In the first example sentence, the action is took . Ask yourself, "Who took?" Since I takes the verb, I is the subject. Together, the subject and the predicate form a clause . So the first example sentence has one clause.

The predicate in the second sentence is love . So we ask ourselves, "who loves?" The answer to this question is I , so I takes the predicate love . Together, they form a clause. But there is another predicate in this sentence. Spend is also a predicate. Once again, the subject I takes this predicate. So this example sentence has one subject and predicate working together in the first clause, and a second subject and predicate working together in the next clause. The second example sentence has two clauses .

Phrases do not contain a subject and a predicate , or we would call them clauses. Phrases provide additional information about subjects, predicates, and / or objects. Understanding how phrases work is helpful when analyzing sentence structure.

In these example sentences, the phrases are red . The first example sentence has a predicate, fell , and a subject, Jack . The phrase provides additional information about the subject, but it is not required to form a complete sentence. The phrase does not contain a subject and a predicate. It cannot grammatically stand by itself.

In the second example sentence, the predicate is left and the subject is I . On the other side of the sentence, a phrase provides additional information about an object in the sentence, Whole Foods. Phrases can come at the beginning, middle, or end of sentences. Try reading the sentence without the phrase and notice that the sentence does not actually NEED the phrase. It is grammatically nonessential. Then try reading the phrase without the rest of the sentence. Notice that it hangs? The phrase depends on the sentence to complete its meaning.

Independent clauses have a subject and a predicate and express a complete thought. Dependent clauses have a subject and a predicate but do not express a complete thought because of a conjunction like “because.”

Please sir can you explain the types of clauses

Sir can you teach me some tricks to identify phrases and clauses tomorrow is my exam

I still dont understand it

Amudha Godfrey Fernando

Can u give the answer As soon as possible

Which answer?

I want to give test of adverb clauses and phrases

What is a phrase?

A phrase is a group of words containing a subject OR predicate (or object) but not a subject AND a predicate. A subject AND a predicate makes a clause.

There are lots of different types of phrases. For example, the prepositional phrase, which provides information about the location of the subject or object in time and/or space.

I left my folder under the desk .

This is a prepositional phrase providing more information about the location of an object (the folder) in relation to another object (the desk).

Phrases often provide additional information and are not essential to the sentence construction, unlike the clause, which is the essential part of the sentence, I left in the above example.

sir what is the difference between a subordinate and coordinating clause?

Can you have a dependent clause without subject or verb even though it does not have a complete thought?

No, by definition a clause must have a subject and a predicate. Conjunctions are what make them dependent.

Sir I am confused in sentence , phrase and clause. Give me 10 of 5 examples of each in a same sentence

1. This is a clause. 2. Clauses have subjects and predicates. 3. Clauses can stand by themselves and express a complete thought. 4. Some sentences have multiple clauses. 5. Sentences with just one clause are called “simple sentences.”

Phrases 1. The frequently used phrases 2. cannot stand alone 3. The red, red horse

Well, I hope you get the idea.

Thanks a lot sir. This is really helpful for the second language learners.

this is kind of tough sir. any extra helps??

Tell me whether it is phrase or clause in following sentence Because of the cost which I bought from the pot pouri

because of the cost which i bought from the poy pouri Hey Jamal, Jamal first ,the punctuation of your sentence is wrong.It should be like – Because of the cost, which i bought from pot pouri. so, this sentence is a subordinate clause.

What is the difference between phrase and dependent clause?

A clause has a subject and a predicate. A phrase does not.

Sentences are grammatical units containing at least one subject and a predicate.

Predicates are verbs. Tense is related to verbs.

It is well known that verbs express actions, but it is lesser known that verbs have the extra role of showing time.

We conjugate verbs to show time. This is called verb tense .

Since every sentence must have a verb, and every verb has a tense, every sentence has a tense.

Let’s Look at an Example:

Mr. Morton walked to the store.

This sentence has one predicate, which is the verb walked .

Walked is the past tense verb form of walk . The past tense form of a verb shows that the action occurred in the past. It is usually formed by adding “-ed” to the end of the verb.

If you want to know more about verbs and verb tense, or subjects and predicates, you should check out my free parts of speech web app . I think Units 2 and 6 would be of interest to you.

Best wishes!
