Answer 1

Answer:

1 . Basic sentence patterns : All other sentences in English can be longer if the writer wants to add more information to a sentence or combine short sentence patterns using a conjunction (and, but) into one long sentence. For example: Carol is smart, likes ice cream and likes to swim every day at Gallaudet.Every sentence in English (except interjections) has a subject and a verb. The subject is either a noun or a pronoun. The verb is either an action verb or a helping verb.

There are several basic sentence patterns in English.
