Which of the following is a phrase fragment?

A) Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend.

B) Let's ask our parents if we can go tubing.

C) Did you just say that?

D) A great dog, that’s what we have!

I can't determine if it's A or C.

A) Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend. SO WHAT?

This does not tell us the full meaning of the sentence. It does not answer WHAT.

An example of the correct sentence is.....

Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend, WE WILL GO TO THE BEACH.

It's A (since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend). Took the test

C is a question with a subject and verb. Do you see them?

A is an adverbial clause. If you remove the word "Since" it'll be a complete sentence.

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the phrase fragment is actually option A. "Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend." It lacks a subject and a predicate. But hey, it's not all bad news! At least we can laugh at grammar together, right?

To determine if a phrase is a fragment or a complete sentence, we need to check if it has a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought.

A) "Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend." - This is a fragment because it begins with a dependent clause ("Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend") and does not contain a main clause that can stand alone as a complete sentence.

B) "Let's ask our parents if we can go tubing." - This is a complete sentence as it has both a subject ("we") and a predicate ("ask our parents if we can go tubing"), and it expresses a complete thought.

C) "Did you just say that?" - This is also a complete sentence as it has a subject ("you") and a predicate ("did you just say that?"), and it expresses a complete thought.

D) "A great dog, that's what we have!" - This is a complete sentence as it contains a subject ("we") and a predicate ("have"). Although it is a bit unconventional in structure because it begins with a noun phrase, it is still a complete sentence.

Therefore, the phrase fragment is A) "Since the weather forecast is beautiful this weekend."
