Question

Which of the following types of phrases can function as a noun in a sentence?

  1. Noun phrases
  2. Infinitive phrases
  3. Gerund phrases
  4. All of the above
  5. None of the above

hintHint:

For something to function as a noun it must be a phrase used to identify any of a class of people, places, or thing.

The correct answer is: All of the above


    Option4 is the correct answer.
    When an infinitive phrase works like a noun, it answers the question “what?” So, the infinitive phrase will be the subject. A whole gerund phrase functions in a sentence just like a noun and can act as a subject or an object.
