Which answer correctly identifies the underlined word in the sentence?


Sarah was so happy to have a part in the newly written play.







A

infinitive phrase





B

participial phrase





C

D

Verified Answer :

A phrase typically has more than one word: so it is not a phrase, either infinitive (an infinitive phrase here is: to have a part) or participial phrase.

Written is also not an infinitive: here the infinitive is "to have".

The correct answer is: participle, "written" is a past participle.
