Adjectival vs adjective phrase is there really a difference.


Recommended Posts

I was trying to figure this out looking on line but could not find a clear answer on adverbials vs adv phrase or adjectival vs adjective phrase. One site said that some use it interchangeably but another said there is a slight difference not really give clarity why. Can someone please help me understand the difference if any?

Check out here: https://linguistics.stackexchange.com/questions/21177/is-the-adverbial-phrase-and-adverb-phrase-identical

"An adverb phrase is best thought of as a phrase headed by an adverb, in the same way that a preposition phrase is a phrase headed by a preposition and so forth. An 'Adverbial' is a Modifier within a clause or sentence. In other words Adverbial is a grammatical relation like Subject or Object, whereas adverb phrase is a phrasal category like verb phrase or preposition phrase"
