Definition

A word, phrase, or clause that modifies—or provides information about—another word in the same sentence is known as a modifier. For instance, the term "vegetarian" modifies the word "pizza" in the following phrase:

• She placed an order for a vegetarian pizza.

The word "vegetarian" adds further context to the type of pizza being described.

Adjectives, which modify a noun, and adverb, which modifies a verb, are both examples of modifiers.

Explanation 

Look at these two instances:

‍

• I rode the train. 
• I rode the earliest train into the city.

‍

.

• Due to the modifiers it includes, the second statement is more detailed. 
• Modifiers' primary function is to increase the descriptiveness or specificity of sentences. 
• They can clarify a sentence's meaning, make it more precise, or just make it more interesting. 
• Although each of the aforementioned examples are full sentences, only one adds further information on the train experience. 
• These elements might act as foreshadowing, clarification, a way to distinguish this from another remark, or a way to grab the listener's attention, depending on how this line fits into a bigger dialogue.

Conclusion

Modifiers enhance a particular sentence in terms of detailing or description.
