Participial Phrases | EXAMPLES and HOW to identify them
What is a Participial Phrase? What are some examples? How do you identify participial phrases?

A participial phrase is a word group that has a participle along with any words that modify it or complete its meaning. Some participial phrases begin sentences (introductory participial phrases). Other participial phrases can be found in the middle of sentences (non-essential participial phrases).

EXAMPLES:
Speaking eloquently, Mr. Bond enthralled the audience.
[The participial phrase modifies the noun 'Mr. Bond'. The adverb 'eloquently' modifies the present participle 'Speaking'.]

Jay Jones, sometimes known as as Jay Jo, won the race.
[The participial phrase modifies the noun Jason Jones . ]

A participial phrase looks like a verb, but actually functions as an adjective; it modifies a noun in the same sentence. Phrases like this can “spice up” a noun and provide added description about what it's doing or what it looks like.
