HELLO DEAR EXPERTS,
I WANTED TO ASK THAT HOW DO WE DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN SUBORDINATE CLAUSE AND PHRASES? ALSO TELL THAT WHETHER THE UNDERLINED PART IS A SC(SUBORDINATE CLAUSE) OR A PHRASE:

Gus is the cat at the Theatre door.

PLZ REPLY FAST AS I HAVE MY ENGLISH EXAM TOMORROW.....THANK YOU :/

Dear student, A phrase is simply a collection of words that does not have a subject doing an action but it may have noun or verbals. For example: before the test. This is a phrase as it does not have any subject. A subordinate clause has a subject and a verb but it is dependent because it does not convey a complete meaning. For example: though I am very moody. In your question, ' at the theatre door' is a phrase as it does not have a subject and a verb. Regards.
