Sentence-Subject and Predicate

 

When we speak, we make a sentence to convey us to others.

Table of Contents

When we make a sentence we explain about some person or thing.

It means we speak about something and say something about that person or thing.

Every sentence has two parts-

1-    The part about what we speak.

This is called the Subject of the sentence.

2-    The part which is explained about the Subject.

This is called the Predicate of the sentence.

Subject of a sentence always comes first.

In Imperative sentences subject is omitted.

Here some sentences are given .Subjects and Predicates are separated by colours.
