Phrase

In everyday speech, a phrase may be any group of words, often carrying a special idiomatic meaning; in this sense it is roughly synonymous with expression. In linguistic analysis, a phrase is a group of words (or possibly a single word) that functions as a constituent in the syntax of a sentence—a single unit within a grammatical hierarchy. A phrase appears within a clause, although it is also possible for a phrase to be a clause or to contain a clause within it.

Common and technical use

There is a difference between the common use of the term phrase and its technical use in linguistics. In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or other significance, such as "all rights reserved", "economical with the truth", "kick the bucket", and the like. It may be a euphemism, a saying or proverb, a fixed expression, a figure of speech, etc.

In grammatical analysis, particularly in theories of syntax, a phrase is any group of words, or sometimes a single word, which plays a particular role within the grammatical structure of a sentence. It does not have to have any special meaning or significance, or even exist anywhere outside of the sentence being analyzed, but it must function there as a complete grammatical unit. For example, in the sentence Yesterday I saw an orange bird with a white neck, the words an orange bird with a white neck form what is called a noun phrase, or a determiner phrase in some theories, which functions as the object of the sentence.

    by: Hegemon

    Now everything is conquered, we have enslaved the
    earth.
    No survivors, no surrender, we brought apocalypse!
    We are the new Genesis! Through the Nemesis!
    Crushing down all religions, raising up our new
    kingdom.
    There's no God or no Satan but only one sign!
    Humanity is what we breed.
    Nothing's holy! Nothing's impure! We are but filth!
    Pride and glory our destiny!
    We could have been blinded by illusion of such a power
    But we faced the enemy, the great one that's inside of
    And we defeated him so now we can rule all over the
    world
    Now we are free! We have conquered...
    Hell or heaven is just an idea for those who live in
    lie to understand what surrounds them.
    Seeking the truth is the only quest that's worth to
    fight for
    And crushing all principles is what we have done, for
    the old world is dead and gone!
    There's no such free spirit than the one who breaks its
    chains itself...
    Riding the land with horses of fire burning at stake
    for everything to putrify
    Bringing the peace of steel! Stealing the will to the
    ones against us, making them crawl.
    Annihilation of all resistance!
    We fear nothing!
    ITENOU PEDJET!
    There are walls higher than those built by man.
    Beware of knights that don't fear light.
    They will bring you death if you hide behind your
    faith!
    Water, wind, fire, and earth! These are the only true
    words that should command to all of us!
    God and Satan are just a game to play if you look for
    fame!
    But the only choice to get out is to search for light!
    Now everything is conquered we have enslaved the earth.
