Chapter 2 grammar Notes

Subjects and Predicates Sentence consists of two basic parts: subject and predicate Subject tells whom or what the sentence or clause is about Predicate tells something about the subject The Following examples contain the complete subject and the complete predicate. Example: Some residents of the desert can survive a long drought How can an animal survive that long?

The Subject The simple subject is the main word or word group that tells whom or what the sentence is about. The complete subject consists of the simple subject and any words or word groups that modify the simple subject. Examples Both of these birds are for sale. Complete: Both of these birds Simple: Both A dog with this pedigree is usually nervous. Complete: A dog with this pedigree Simple: dog

Predicate Simple predicate/verb: is the main word or word group that tells something about the subject Complete predicate: consists of the verb and all the words that modify the verb and complete its meaning. Examples Rosa has been looking for you all morning. Complete predicate: has been looking for you all morning Simple predicate: has been looking Spiders snare their prey in intricate webs. Complete predicate: snare their prey in intricate webs Simple predicate: snare

Finding the Subject To find the subject of a sentence, find the verb first. Then, ask Who? Or What? Before the verb. Note: The subject of a verb is never going to be in a prepositional phrase. Examples My cousin from Finland will arrive this afternoon. The verb is will arrive. Who will arrive? Cousin will arrive. Subject is cousin On the other side of the brook stands a cabin. The verb is stands. What stands? A cabin stands. The subject is cabin.
