Predicates Simple, Compound and Complete By Emily Lonze, Cammie Landmen, and Conner Sankbeil

The Definition of a Predicate The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells something about the subject.

A simple Predicate is… A simple predicate has one verb Here is an example, the predicate is underlined: My mother cooked supper. (cooked is the verb)

A compound Predicate is… A compound predicate consists of two (or more) such predicates connected Here is an example the compound predicate is underlined: My mother cooked supper and served it to us. (cooked and served are the verbs; "and" is the conjunction

A complete predicate is… complete predicate tells what is said or being said about the subject and completes the sentence The complete predicate is easy to locate once you know what the complete subject is. It's everything in the sentence that the complete subject isn't. Here's an example: The girl with the short brown hair came to my house

How To Identify a Predicate To find the predicate, first identify the subject and ask “What?” The answer to this question should be the predicate.  The predicate usually follows the subject in a sentence. However, it can be placed before the subject in a question (Was it your mother’s purse?),in an implied sentence (Look out!), or in a phrase or clause at the beginning of a sentence to add special emphasis (Even more interesting was the fact that she knew it would probably rain).
