In

Take the photos of the family at the play, neighbors in for a party.

What does the "in" mean? Is it the same "in" as , say, "Is she in?"?

And if the relative pronoun was added like this below, would it be the same?

Take the photos of the family at the play, neighbors that/who are in for a party.

TakaTake the photos of the family at the play, neighbors in for a party.
Part of the problem is that that is not a proper sentence: there is no way to associate the part before the comma with that which follows it.

Sorry, the original was:

Take the photos of the family at play, neighbors in for a party.

Do you mean it needs "and" like this, MM?

Hi Taka,
I watched Japan lose to Ivory Coast yesterday. But Honda scored a beautiful goal!

When I consider these words, I am not sure what your intended meaning is.
eg Are you ordering someone to take photos that have previously been mentioned?

TakaDo you mean it needs "and" like this, MM?Take the photos of the family at play and neighbors in for a party.
Yes, something like that. 'In' = visiting the home, I presume.

It was a huge loss, but thanks for the compliment on his performance, Clive.
