  1. These two items are really confusing at times, but as we move on with our discussion, I hope I could have a clear view of the difference between the two items.

    Revised:
    To have more knowledge about phrases and clauses, you can visit these links:

    It's better to pluralize the words "phrase" and "clause" because you are not only pertaining to one phrase or one clause, but also to the rest of phrases and clauses. You cited two links in your post; hence, you must use "these links" instead of "this link."

  5. I agree with Jason's revision of your sentence. It is also good if we can easily identify if the given is a clause or a phrase.
