The appositive phrase is "the woman running for mayor" which renames the noun "Janice Limerick."

What is the appositive for My Uncle Joe bought a dozen tulips

There is no appositive in the sentence given.

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun or pronoun just before it.

An appositive is set off in a sentence with a comma before and after it.

Examples of the sentence with appositive are:

My uncle, Joe, bought a dozen tulips.

  • The noun 'Joe' renames the noun phrase 'My uncle'.

My Uncle Joe, a friendly fellow, bought a dozen tulips.

  • The noun phrase 'a friendly fellow' renames the noun phrase 'my Uncle Joe'.

The man, my Uncle Joe, bought a dozen tulips.

  • The noun phrase 'my Uncle Joe' renames the noun phrase 'the man'.

Note: The only other noun (tulips) or noun phrase (a dozen tulips) in the sentence is the direct object of the verb 'bought'. When a noun or noun phrase follows a direct object to rename it, it's called an object complement.

Example: My Uncle Joe bought a dozen tulips, yellow ones.
