Given below are two statements regarding Phrase and Clause. Statement I: Phrase - A phrase is a group of words with a finite verb in it. Statement II: Clause - A clause is a group of words with an infinite verb in it. Choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Both Statement I and Statement II are false
A phrase is a group of words without a finite verb, so Statement I is false. A clause must contain a finite verb along with a subject, not merely an 'infinite' verb form, so Statement II as worded is also false. Hence option (B), both statements false, is correct.
