(noun phrase or not noun phrase)

1. (the two squirrels) are fighting over an acorn. = noun phrase

2. i gave half of my lunch (to my sister) yesterday. = noun phrase

3. maria loves (to go dancing.) = ?

4. i like ice cubes (in my water.) = not noun phrase

In the sentence 3. Maria loves to go dancing, "to go dancing" is not a noun phrase.

Explanation:

A noun phrase should present a noun and other words that modify such noun (determiners or modifiers). It functions as a noun would function in the structure of the sentence. The phrase "to go dancing" does not fit such description. Thus, it is not a noun phrase.

As a matter of fact, the phrase "to go dancing" is an infinitive phrase. Infinitive phrases are comprised of a verb in the infinitive form (to + base form of the verb) and modifiers or other words related to the infinitive. Infinitive phrases can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs in a sentence. In the specific sentence we are studying here, "to go dancing" functions as a noun, being the object of the verb "loves".

3. Maria loves to go dancing.

Maria - subject

loves - verb

to go dancing - object
