What is an appositive phrase as a modifier?

An appositive phrase is a type of modifier that provides additional information about a noun or pronoun in a sentence. It consists of a noun or pronoun followed by a modifying phrase or clause that renames or identifies the noun or pronoun. The appositive phrase is set off by commas and can be placed before or after the noun or pronoun it modifies. It helps to provide more details or clarify the meaning of the noun or pronoun in the sentence.
