What are implicit phrases?

The term "implicit phrases" is not a standard grammatical term. It's possible you're referring to one of these concepts:

1. Implied meaning: This refers to the meaning that is not directly stated but can be understood from the context. For example, if someone says "I'm going to the store," it's implied that they're going to buy something.

2. Idioms: These are phrases whose meaning is not the literal meaning of the words. For example, "kick the bucket" means to die.

3. Unstated information: This refers to information that is not explicitly stated in a sentence, but is necessary to understand the meaning. For example, in the sentence "The cat sat on the mat," it's unstated that the cat is sitting on the mat at a particular time and place.

4. Ellipsis: This is the omission of words that are understood from the context. For example, in the sentence "I went to the store, but you didn't," the words "go to the store" are omitted in the second clause.

5. Implied verbs: This refers to verbs that are not explicitly stated but are implied by the context. For example, in the sentence "The door opened," the verb "opened" is implied, but not explicitly stated.

If you can provide more context or an example of what you mean by "implicit phrases," I can give you a more specific answer.
