What are the example of phrases with interrupt sentence?

It seems like you're asking for examples of phrases that interrupt a sentence, which is a common feature of parentheticals. Here's how it works and some examples:

Parentheticals

* Purpose: Parentheticals add extra information, comments, or explanations to a sentence. They can be used to:

* Clarify a point

* Provide an aside

* Emphasize something

* Add humor

* Provide an example

* Structure: They're usually enclosed in commas, parentheses, or dashes.

Examples:

1. Commas:

* "The cake, which was chocolate with raspberry filling, was delicious."

* "My brother, a talented musician, plays the piano beautifully."

2. Parentheses:

* "The new restaurant (located on Main Street) has a great menu."

* "I've been to Paris (twice) and I love it there."

3. Dashes:

* "The concert was amazing – the band played all my favorite songs."

* "I tried to call you – I left a message on your phone."

Phrases that can Interrupt:

* Explanatory phrases: (e.g., "in fact," "for example," "on the other hand")

* Interjections: (e.g., "Wow," "Really?")

* Short comments: (e.g., "you know," "I think," "it seems")

* Appositives: (e.g., "my dog, a golden retriever," "the city, a bustling metropolis")

Important Notes:

* The interrupting phrase should be grammatically correct and make sense within the sentence.

* The sentence should flow smoothly even with the interruption.

* Use parentheticals sparingly to avoid overusing them and making your writing cluttered.
