A modifier can be an adjective,
an adverb, or a phrase or
clause acting as an adjective or
adverb In every case, the basic principle is the same:
the modifier adds information to another element in the
sentence.
In this chapter, you will begin by working with single-word
modifiers -- adjectives and adverbs
-- but the information here will also apply to
phrases and clauses which act as
modifiers.
