Question
Identify the option used to create the adjective phrase (in bold) in the following sentence:
"A Woman dressed in fine silk walked through the doors.”
- Adverb
- Prepositional phrase
- Infinitive phrase
- Noun clause
Hint:
We know that a preposition is a word that expressed the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another word in the sentence. A prepositional phrase includes the preposition and object of the preposition, when a prepositional phrase is functioning as an adjective phrase, it is telling us which one, what kind or how many.
The correct answer is: Prepositional phrase
An adjective prepositional phrase describes a noun or pronoun. It answers the questions which one, what kind, how much, or how many. 'A woman dressed in fine silk walked through the doors'. Here, 'woman' = noun being described; 'in' = preposition; 'in fine silk' = adjective phrase.
