Example: This bus travels across town but does not stop by the train station. We have to identify the subject, verb and prepositional phrases in the sentence and we are wondering if "but does not stop" is a prepositional phrase, and if not, why?
@heathermarie,
So, what's the consensus amongst you all?
This is a compound sentence:
Bus/ travels ...but ...(it) does travel
All other words are modifiers
By / station (prep phrase)
