Every sentence has a complete
subject and complete predicate.
The complete subject tells
whom or what the sentence is about. For example;
The house, The red car, or
The great teacher.
The complete predicate
tells what the subject is or does. For example; (The
house) is white, (The
red car) is fast, or (The
great teacher) likes students.
The house
is white.
The red car is fast.
The great teacher likes
students.
Look at the sentences below. Tell whether the
blue colored part of the sentence is the complete subject, complete
predicate, or neither.
