Answer:

A nominal sentence is one in which the subject is the topic, and a verbal sentence is one in which the subject is the subject of a verb. Consider the following. In this example, the subject is “the colour of this corundum” and it is not the subject of any verb. Hence the sentence is nominal.

Explanation:

Nominal sentence (also known as equational sentence)[1] is a linguistic term that refers to a nonverbal sentence (i.e. a sentence without a finite verb).[2] As a nominal sentence does not have a verbal predicate, it may contain a nominal predicate, an adjectival predicate, in Semitic languages also an adverbial predicate or even a prepositional predicate. In Egyptian-Coptic, however, as in the majority of African languages, sentences with adverbial or prepositional predicate show a distinctly different structure.[3]. The relation of nominal sentences to verbal sentences is a question of tense marking. In most languages with nominal sentences such as Russian, Arabic and Hebrew, the copular verb does not surface in indicatival present tense sentences. Conversely, these languages allow the copular verb in non-present sentences.
