Identify the italicized word or phrase. the president is about to "speak". participle infinitive verb phrase

The answer is: infinitive.

An infinitive verb does not possess any inflection that indicates a particular tense. It usually follows "to."

The rest of the options are incorrect because the participle of speak is spoken and a verb phrase contains a main verb, or a main verb plus auxiliaries or modal verbs. The verb in a verb phrase indicates the type of clause, such as declarative or imperative.

answer: i feel like it would be group discussion

explanation:

well stockyards mean a large yard containing pens and sheds, typically adjacent to a slaughterhouse, in which livestock is kept and sorted. and i'm assuming that by party you   mean a large group of people which does make sense because chicago is a very crowded place much like new york. stockyards tend to take up a lot of room due to needing the area for pens to keep animals in and the fact that stockyards are usually right by slaughterhouse where they process and distribute the product. so its much like a zoo but with some dead animal products close by.
