Adjective Phrase
A group of words that describes a noun/
pronoun in a sentence that what kind and
which one the noun/pronoun is. It consists of
an adjective plus any modifier (Adverb).

about a noun/pronoun and it does
the work of an adjective.
An adjective Phrase can include
Adjectives

Conjunctions

of her collection.

3. She saw three sleek gold sports-cars.

Difference between a Noun Phrase
& an Adjective Phrase
The basic difference between noun phrase
and adjective phrase is that a noun phrase
acts as a noun while an adjective phrase
acts as an adjective.
An adjective phrase, just like an adjective,
is used to describe a noun or a pronoun.
The dog covered in mud is mine.
