English As A Second Language I realize this task is not perfect. But I hope to be
useful for us. Criticisms and suggestions are needed here to make this task better.
Hopefully we as a student in the "English" can work more professionally by using

CLAUSES AND PHRASES

Both clauses and phrases are the basic components of writing a sentence.
When combined with other parts of speech and other parts of sentences, clauses
and phrases to help build a complex system in which your words convey the
meaning. Understanding the difference between the two is very important to write
grammatically correct sentences and well constructed.
 A.    Clauses
Adverb clauses are clauses that function as adverbs. Adverb clause is a
dependent clause (clause that can not stand alone) that indicates how, when,
where, why, or under what conditions something to happen or even could be to
express the contrast (the difference). Adverb clause begins with a subordinating
conjunction belonging to the conjunctions.
A clause is a group of words that can act as a sentence, but not necessarily a
complete sentence itself. All clause contains a subject and a predicate, which
always contain a verb. A predicate says something about what the subject did.
Some clause can stand alone as a complete sentence; others can not. Below are
some examples of clauses:
Example :
1.    She danced. (“She” is the subject. “Danced” is both the verb and the
predicate. Even though the clause is only two words, it functions as an
independent clause because it can stand alone as a sentence.)
2.    While she is dancing, the audience cannot tear its eyes off her.
In Example 2, there are actually two clauses. The first “while she is dancing”
contains a subject (she) and a predicate (is dancing), but it cannot stand alone as a
sentence, making it a dependent clause. The second clause, “the audience cannot
tear its eyes off her,” contains a subject (the audience) and a predicate (tear its
eyes off her), and because it can function as a sentence on its own, it is an
independent clause.

  B.     Phrases
A phrase is a group of two or more words that does not have the subject and
verb combination and does not form a predicate. It can contain a noun or a verb,
but does not have a subject or predicate. Essentially, a phrase provides some sort
of additional information or provides more context to the sentences you write. A
phrase can never stand alone as a sentence; however, a phrase can nestle itself
inside clauses that are either complete sentences on their own or ones that are
dependent on the rest of the sentence. When a phrase is within a clause, it
functions as a part of speech. Below are a few examples of a phrase:
Example :
1.      The dance was held at the reception hall. (“At the reception hall” is a
prepositional phrase. It does not have a subject or predicate, and it cannot stand
alone as a sentence.)
Example 2 revisited: While she is dancing, the audience cannot tear its eyes off
her.
In Example 2 revisited, “off her” is a prepositional phrase that is nestled within
the independent clause identified earlier. It does not contain a subject/predicate,
nor can it stand alone as a sentence.

Understanding the difference It is vital to understand the main differences

between clauses and phrases to ensure your writing is clear in both construction
and context. If you are unsure whether a group of words is a clause or phrase,
break down the words into the parts of speech to help you decide. If there is a
subject and a verb with a predicate, it is a clause. If there is a noun but no verb or
a verb but no noun and does not have a predicate, it is a phrase. Always keep in
mind that sometimes phrases are built into clauses.
