Phrase
In everyday speech, a
phrase may be any group of words, often carrying a special idiomatic meaning; in this sense it is roughly synonymous with
expression. In linguistic analysis, a phrase is a group of words (or possibly a single word) that functions as a
constituent in the
syntax of a
sentence—a single unit within a
grammatical hierarchy. A phrase appears within a
clause, although it is also possible for a phrase to be a clause or to contain a clause within it.
