1. A noun phrase, or nominal (phrase), is a phrase that has a noun or pronoun as its head or performs the same grammatical function as a noun.

2. Noun phrases consist of a noun and all of its modifiers. Modifiers can include adjectives, articles, participles, or possessive nouns and pronouns, just to name a few. Noun phrases can function as any noun in the sentence, whether as subjects, objects, or subject complements.

3. Noun phrases are simply nouns with modifiers. Just as nouns can act as subjects, objects and prepositional objects, so can noun phrases. Similarly, noun phrases can also work in a sentence as adjectives, participles, infinitives, and prepositional or absolute phrases.
