Present Participle phrase || Explanation, examples, types, and tips || Advanced English grammar

Hello, learners!

In this lesson, we learn what a PRESENT PARTICIPLE PHRASE is and how to use it in a sentence correctly.

What is a Present participle phrase?

A phrase that starts with a present participle and modifies a noun in a sentence is called a present participle phrase. It starts with a present participle (an ING form of a verb) and is followed by its object and/or a modifier.

Examples:

The girl sitting beside the tree is the topper of our class.

Sitting – present participle
Besides the tree – adverb phrase (modifier)

Sitting beside the tree is the present participle phrase that’s starting with the present participle ‘sitting’ and modifying the noun ‘girl’. It tells us which girl the speaker is talking about by giving information about her.

Wearing a black coat, he enters the hall and waves at the students.

Wearing – Present participle
A black coat – the object of the verb ‘wearing’

The present participle phrase is telling us the state of the noun it’s modifying. When the subject (he) entered the hall and waved at the students, he was in a certain attire: wearing a black coat. So, the present participle phrase identifies the pronoun ‘he’ and gives us information about him.
