Type of phrase: Nominal sentence where the predicate is a prepositional or adverbial phrase

An Arabic nominal sentence consists of two parts: a subject and a predicate. The predicate describes the subject. The subject is a noun that is definite. In this type of nominal sentence, the predicate is an incomplete sentence that either consists of a preposition and a noun or an adverb (word for time or place) and a noun. The sentence does not need any verb in Arabic since the verb (is) is implied in this type of sentence.
