What are Appositives
Appositives are nouns or noun phrases that follow or come before a noun, and give more information about it.
Example, ... “a golden retriever” is an appositive to “The puppy.” The word appositive is derived from the Latin phrases ad and positio meaning “near” and “placement.”

Examples : The puppy, a golden retriever, is my newest pet.

Example 2: A two-month-old rambunctious puppy, Brady ripped up a pillow while I was away for a moment in the kitchen.
Explanation: The appositive “A two-year-old rambunctious puppy” precedes the noun “Brady.”
6
Angry at Brady, I began yelling but stopped when I looked at him, a sweet little puppy unaware of his wrongdoing and still not quite housetrained.
Here the appositive is the noun phrase “a sweet little puppy unaware of his wrongdoing and still not quite housetrained.“
As is shown in these two examples, appositives can be simple or complex and can appear in any part of the sentence.
