What is a "modifier"?

A modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that provides additional information about another word or group of words in a sentence. Modifiers help to clarify, specify, or enhance the meaning of nouns, verbs, adjectives, or adverbs. For example, in the phrase "the tall building," the adjective "tall" is a modifier that describes the noun "building." In the sentence "She runs quickly," the adverb "quickly" modifies the verb "runs," indicating how she runs. Modifiers can be essential for adding detail and richness to sentences, but they must be placed carefully to avoid confusion or ambiguity. Understanding modifiers is crucial for effective communication, as they contribute significantly to the overall meaning and clarity of a sentence.
