Using Phrasal Modifiers (#2)

In Grammar Hint 172, we reviewed one way that phrases
can be used to modify nouns. Here is another way--by using
prepositional phrases.

Look at these two sentences containing prepositional phrases
showing places:

Alice has a son.
Alice's son is in elementary school.

Now look at two more sentences--but this time with
prepositional phrases showing time:

There's a meeting.
The meeting is at 3:30 PM

There are many ways to combine these sentences. One way
is by using phrasal modifiers:

Alice has a son in elementary school.

There's a meeting at 3:30 PM.

More than one phrase can be used to describe a noun.
To see how this works, let's add some sentences to the
ones we used above:

Alice has a son.
Alice's son is in the fourth grade.
Alice's son is at George Washington School.

There's a meeting.
The meeting is at 3:30 PM.
The meeting is next Wednesday.

There are many ways to combine the sentences above.
One way is by using phrasal modifiers:

Alice has a son in the fourth grade
at George Washington School.

There's a meeting at 3:30 PM
next Wednesday.

Notice that . . .
