the decorations of the new house,including the furniture and curtains
in the above statement "including" is a modifier so it is refering to a house or to the decorations in the statement?and logically it should refer to which word(house or decorations)?
In that sentence, 'including' is a modifier referring to a previous noun, 'decorations' and that noun's modifier, the prepositional phrase functioning as an adjective, 'of the new house'.
@centrox,
noun in the prepositional phrase cannot be the noun of noun modifier?
It is not in that sentence.
