Noun, Verb, Infinitive & Adjectival Phrases

The word "to" is missing to make this phrase INFINITIVE. In English grammar, an infinitive is the base form of a verb preceded by the word "to." In this case, the phrase should be "He wants to eat spaghetti for dinner." The word "to" is used to indicate the purpose or intention of the action.

An adjectival phrase is a group of words that functions as an adjective to modify a noun or pronoun. It provides additional information about the noun or pronoun, such as its quality, quantity, or characteristics. Therefore, the statement "An adjectival phrase modifies a noun/pronoun" is true. Adjectival phrases can be used to describe the size, color, shape, or any other attribute of the noun or pronoun they modify.

The correct answer is "The gorgeous house went on sale." This statement includes an adjectival phrase because "gorgeous" is an adjective that describes the house. Adjectival phrases are phrases that function as adjectives by modifying a noun or pronoun. In this case, the phrase "gorgeous house" modifies the noun "house" by providing additional information about its appearance.

The statement "I want to eat ice cream" includes an infinitive phrase. An infinitive phrase consists of the word "to" followed by a verb in its base form, and in this case, the verb is "eat". The phrase "to eat ice cream" functions as the object of the verb "want" in the sentence.

The statement "An interesting woman came over" includes a noun phrase. A noun phrase is a group of words that functions as a noun in a sentence. In this case, "An interesting woman" is the noun phrase as it consists of the determiner "An" and the noun "woman."

The correct answer is "The gorgeous woman walked by me." This statement includes a noun phrase because "the gorgeous woman" is a group of words that functions as a noun, as it is the subject of the sentence.

The phrase "extremely comfortable" is an adjectival phrase because it modifies the noun "home" by providing additional information about its quality or characteristic.

The statement "I am crying of happiness" includes a verb phrase. The verb phrase in this sentence is "am crying," which consists of the verb "am" and the present participle "crying." This phrase expresses an action (crying) and is used in the present tense with the helping verb "am."
