 a subject and a verb.  A PHRASE IS ONLY A GROUP OF WORDS.
 The most common phrases are PREPOSITIONAL.
 To know what a clause is, know what it isn't.  A clause is not a

 Maybe you can think of a few more rabbit-log prepositions.  You should   
 also be aware of these commom prepositions:
 AFTER
 SINCE   WITH
 AMONG   WITHOUT
 over the log
 under the table

 from the store   onto greater things   above the clouds
