Clauses, like phrases, are word groups that add information to a sentence. Unlike phrases, clauses always have a subject and predicate (verb). Clauses that form a complete thought are called independent clauses, and clauses that do not form a complete thought are called dependent, or subordinate, clauses. A phrase is a group of words that lacks a subject, a predicate (verb), or both. Most phrases are named for the function they serve in a sentence (noun phrase, adverb phrase, verb phrase).
