Answer: Terms that describe the underlined portion of the sentence ("who is running for mayor") are: <u>nonrestrictive</u> and<u> clause.</u>
Explanation:
- A clause is a grammar unit that, unlike a phrase, contains a verb and a subject. It is different from a sentence in that it does not convey a complete thought and does not make sense on its own. In this case, "who is running for mayor" is a<u> </u><u>relative clause. </u>
*An appositive is <u>a noun/noun phrase</u> which identifies another element in a sentence (typically another noun phrase). This is not the case here, as this construction is a relative clause and not a noun phrase.
- A nonrestrictive clause, also known as a nonessential clause, is a clause which provides details that are not essential for a sentence to make sense. In other words, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same without this clause - <em>Sayeed Johnson will be speaking at the city library tonight.
