what is sentence ???​

Answer 1

${\huge {\underline {\purple {\mathbb{ANSWER}}}}}$

In functional linguistics, a sentence is a unit of written texts delimited by graphological features such as upper case letters and markers such as periods, question marks, and exclamation marks.

Answer 2

$\huge{\boxed{\color{red}{Sentence}}}$

A sentence is a group of words which makes complete sense.

$\huge\colorbox{white}{\color{purple}{Explaination}}$

Read these words :

$\colorbox{silver}{\color{black}{build,~birds,~trees,~in,~nests}}$

Do these words make complete sense ?

No, they do not make complete sense.

Now read the same words in another order.

$\colorbox{silver}{\color{black}{Birds~build~nests~in~trees.}}$

Do these words make complete sense ?

Yes, they do. These words make complete sense and they form a sentence.

• When we write a sentence we must remember these things :

• The words must be placed in their proper order to make complete sense.

• The sentence must begin with a Capital Letter

• A full stop (.), a question mark (?) or a sign of exclamation (!) must be placed at the end of a sentence.

• The word 'I' is always written in Capital Letter.
