What is a participial phrase and how is it used in modifying nouns?

A participial phrase is a group of words that includes a participle (a verb form that functions as an adjective) and any accompanying modifiers or objects. It is used in modifying nouns by providing additional information or description about the noun. The participial phrase usually comes after the noun it modifies and adds details about the noun's characteristics, actions, or qualities.
