Basic (Simple) Sentence Types A simple sentence describes only one thing or idea, and expresses a complete thought, and has only one verb - it contains only an independent (main) clause. Even adding adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases to a simple sentence or joining several nouns with a conjunction does not change it into a complex sentence. Main basic sentences include: Declarative (Narrative) Sentence: is used to form statements. The subject precedes its verbs. For example: "Angus has eaten the black pudding."

Sentences and Sentence Structure Subject and Predicate Prepositional Phrases Complements Verbal Phrases ... Types of Sentences Introduction to Subject and Predicate A sentence has two essential parts: a complete subject and a complete predicate. The complete subject includes the simple subject a noun or a pronoun ) and any words or group of words that modify it. For example: The pilot of the aircraft struggled at the controls during the storm. (Pilot is the simple subject.) The swarms of mosquitoes and flies annoyed the campers night and day. (Swarms is the simple subject.) The simple predicate is the verb . The complete predicate is the verb plus all the words that modify it and complete its meaning. For example: The swimmers dove into the lake, searching for the lost anchor. (Dove is the simple predicate.) The driver cut the engine and emerged from the car triumphant. (Cut and emerged are the simple predicates.) Test your Knowledge of Subject and Predicate In the following sentences, identify the complete subject and identify the simple subject.

The Grammar Key Sentence Structure and Parts of Speech CD The Sentence Structure and Parts of Speech CD offers over thirty narrated lessons covering the parts of speech and includes reviews and challenging sentences to meet every student’s need. Each lesson begins with a review of the "KEY" and the specific questions it asks. Then, after a narrated text, students are given matching questions to ensure they understand the information provided in the lesson. Next, they are introduced to sentences where they must demonstrate their understanding by labeling specific words. If students make a mistake, the program will inform them at that precise moment and offer them clues to work toward the right answer. Although The Grammar Key requires students to identify the right answer before they can move on to the next sentence, it still displays a final grade at the end of that lesson from the number of mistakes made. This not only ensures 100% mastery of all work performed, but saves you, the teacher or parent, from having to check the answers.

Language in use English Language Introduction Finding Things Specification Main Topics ... Search Sentence Structure The analysis and deconstruction of a sentence is a vital skill in understanding language. Sentence analysis is not always easy but it is an essential tool in understanding how language works. Sentence analysis is often referred to as "Grammar" but the latter is a sometimes imprecisely used word for "a systematic account of the rules governing language" (Crystal). Analysis of a particular sentence will demonstrate that you have some understanding of the meaning of grammar, of what a rule is, of what is accepted usage and how to interpret meaning and its significance. It cannot be stressed too strongly that the ability to deconstruct a sentence is essential for any candidate seeking to achieve a good grade at English Language AS/A Level. The green sports car - an example of a deconstructed sentence.

Questions on Sentence Structure Question: The subject of my query is a sentence from the best-selling book by Huston Smith , The World's Religions The hot issue in philosophy of science in recent years is whether science provides us with true and genuine knowledge, or if not, then what does it give us? I have been in heated dispute over the grammatical soundness of the above sentence with a friend. It is my stubborn belief that the sentence is ungrammatical, and yet I am unable to explain why. Could you please analyze the problem (if there is one) and perhaps give me a suggestion or two as to how the sentence might be better phrased (if that be necessary). Thank you very much. Answer: Oh my. This is a sentence sufficiently ungrammatical that its grammar problems actually affect its logic. Let's start with the pure grammar. The sentence parses into a standard English type of subject-verb-predicate nominative. There are complicating factors all along the way. In the subject, there is a string of prepositional phrases that don't attach easily to adjacent modifiers. But the real problem is the predicate, which is composed of two clauses. The reader, already taxed by a complicated subject, longs for relief in the predicate. But the predicate is compounded of two nonparallel elements: an indirect question and a direct question. Because direct questions are formed in English by inversions, there's an extra layer of nonparallelism. Making the predicate parallel will help sort out where the meaning goes awry. Let's try:

Home TV Radio Talk ... A-Z Index THURSDAY 22nd September 2005 Text Only Looking at syntax/ grammar /sentence structure This area is usually considered difficult by students (and others). The area is vast, but in this section we're just going to look at a small number of sentences, and the effects that the writer has achieved with their construction. Here are the first four sentences from The BFG by Roald Dahl: 'Sophie couldn't sleep. A brilliant moonbeam was slanting through a gap in the curtains. It was shining right on to her pillow. The other children in the dormitory had been asleep for hours.' Identify the verbs in each of the four sentences. Type in the subject of each verb - (reminder - that's the part of the sentence which performs the verb). You can leave out 'could', which is a modal auxiliary (ignore the term for now), and so doesn't count for our purpose here. What you should have is this: KEY: SUBJECT= GREEN VERB= RED " Sophie couldn't sleep. A brilliant moonbeam was slanting through a gap in the curtains. It was shining right on to her pillow.

Jun 01 '00 No, Epinions is not English 101, as one epinionator put it in a review I recently read. We aren't here to "grade" each other; the worst writer on the site can at least potentially earn as much money as the best - and that's one of the beauties of how the whole thing works. So no, I'm not here to "judge" you, in the sense that your English teacher was. Heck, I'm not even here to teach you! (And it's risky business writing about such pesky details as grammar and spelling - none of us is perfect, we all hit wrong keys, and little bloopers get past even our most compulsive editing efforts.) But here's where those petty little bourgeois (did I spell that right - very possibly not!) aspects of sharing your opinion of a product, service, or an issue come into play: when you put an epinion out there, you are doing so with the presumed purpose of helping someone make a decision. To buy, rent, use, do, read, see...whatever it is you're writing about. Now, since I don't know you and you don't know me, except through these pages, how I'm going to weight your opinion of whatever-it-is is based only on what you have shown me in your posted opinion. Just like in "real life" (oh dread, oh mercy, say it isn't so!), if you come across as an intelligent, trustworthy person I will be more likely to find your opinion valuable.
