Grammar bites !!

A sentence is a combination of words having a complete sense or meaning. It consists of two parts:

• Subject (The noun part)
• Predicate (The verb part)

The part of the sentence having the subject is telling about the doer whereas predicate shows its action or describing about the doer.

FOR EXAMPLES:

• The boy(S) plays football.(P)
• He(S) goes to school.(P)

Sentences are of different types depending upon the sense of speaking:

• Assertive (Simple statement)
• Imperative (Order, request etc.)
• Interrogative (Question)
• Exclamatory (Expression)

☃️ There is one more type of sentence, known as Verbless sentences, which is small but have a sense like: Why not? , Yes! ,So what? etc$.$
