Select the correct answer.

Read the excerpt from the passage.

In the first frantic greetings lavished on himself as a noted sufferer under the overthrown system, it had been accorded to him to have Charles Darnay brought <u>before the lawless Court,</u> and examined.

Which type of phrase is the underlined portion of the sentence?

A. adverbial phrase B. adjectival phrase C. absolute phrase D. verb phrase

Answer:

C. absolute phrase

Explanation:

A phrase is a group of words that do not have a subject and verb and cannot stand on its own in a sentence.

An absolute phrase, on the other hand, is a type of phrase that is not linked to the sentence by any connective word but modifies the verb in that sentence, if it is removed from the sentence, it would not change the overall meaning of that sentence.
