prepositional phrases and Noun phrases

Post by SkyFox »

Hey guys, I have a question regarding a sentence

" Bob Jumps across the bridge"

From my understanding, "across the bridge" is the prepositional adverbial phrase that describes the word jump. I also understand that adjective phrases can be apart of a noun phrase. My question is can a noun phrase be part of an adverbial phrase? For example, can we say "the bridge" is the noun phrase that is a part of "across the bridge" ?
