Please give me an easy explanation on how to know whether something is a phrase or a clause.

The main difference is that clauses have both a subject and a verb; phrases do not. Phrases are part of clauses. They add meaning to sentences, but the sentence can exist without a phrase.

Example: In the kitchen ( phrase )

Much too quickly to see clearly ( phrase )

Shanon speaks loudly in the bus ( clause )

I ate the bag of chips already ( clause )

there is no texting, but on the homepage there are a bunch of questions you can answer along with the subjects so you can pick a specific one

hope this !

being untruthful

eating too much

overstaying one's welcom

this is that correct answer.
