==Theory==
An interesting issue that has arisen is the distinction between a [[complement]] and [[adjunct]].
Line 9 ⟶ 17:
May be it's that I can imagine a ''house'' without its adjunct, but not an ''end'' without its complement.

I appreciate the need to give informal, easy-to-understand definitions, however I think that some of the stuff on the page now is inaccurate. You see a phrase is something said to person such as bomey.comy which is a phrase originated from California. It is a ceratain group of words said and widely used.
Line 21 ⟶ 29:
As to the difference between complements and adjuncts, I intend to write articles on the two subjects sometime soon. The difference is syntactic, but briefly, a complement is generally very specific to its head, and a head generally imposes strict conditions on what kinds of complements it can take whereas adjuncts can generally modify almost any head. ''white'' and ''at the end of the street'' are adjuncts and ''of the street'' is a complement. The best test to distinguish them is to note that you can say something like ''Which house? The white one'' and ''Which house? The one at the end of the street'', but you can't say ''Which end? *The one of the street''.

Is '''syntactic properties''' the same as [[syntactic categories]]?
 
-- [[User:Karl Palmen|Karl Palmen]] --
 
A syntactic property is a property of a syntactic structure, such what type of a construction in can appear in, etc. It might be different from a syntactic category in some cases, I think. --- [[User:AdamRaizen|AdamRaizen]] --

The bulk of the article seems to assume that Head-Driven Phase Structure grammar is the only possible valid context for use of the term as it applies to grammars. This POV seems to be the underpinning of discussion above as well. I would like to consider qualifying those sections as such and reintroducing some more common senses of the term. --[[User:Tabor|Tabor]]-- 21:43, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 
: Actually, there's nothing at all HPSG specific about the article. The assumption that sentences can be divided up into headed "phrases" is shared by an enormous number of grammatical theories; it's not exclusive to HPSG. --[[User:Cadr|Cadr]]-- 06:23, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 
A phrase is a widely used expression using a specific group of words. Such as some people say "Whats up dog."

== Phrase ==
 
A phrase function as a noun,verb,adjective or preposition in a sentence. The function of phrase depend on it construction (words it contain) [[User:D law 22|D law 22]] ([[User talk:D law 22|talk]]) 07:38, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 
== Foolish explanation of phrase ==
 
It has become a tendency that we follow the theories of high personalities. Rather than the theory we pay attention only to the theorist. That too, thinking that the so-called theorist is there in such and such a university. We forget that these high personalities have given up there meditative power and lost themselves merely in the timely materialism.
In this article 'phrase' has been foolishly malexplained. The writer doesn't have his own meditation. He merely follows what others have foolishly said. Against such articles I am angry enough to have a legal procedure had against these shallow and so-called writers. They have directly tried to mislead the world of knowledge.
