Question

What is a complete subject and a complete predicate?

Answer 1

Hint: There are two sections to a full sentence: firstly it needs a subject and secondly has to be a predicate. A subject of a complete sentence is just what (or of whom) it is about, at the same time the predicate is information about the previously mentioned subject. The predicate is included in brackets [] in the following sentences, while the subject is made bold.
Example:
Original sentence; Blessy is washing her pink car.
Marked subject and predicate; Blessy [is washing her pink car].

Complete answer:
We now know that a subject of a complete sentence is just what (or of whom) it is about, at the same time the predicate is information about the previously mentioned subject. But then there are two types of subject and predicate, they are simple kind and complete kind.

For the complete kind of subject and predicate:
- All of the words that say who or even what the statement implies is about are included in the complete subject.
- Many of the words that describe what the subject is, or what the subject has, feels, or does are included in a complete predicate.

The main difference it has from simple subjects is that:
The main term or words in the complete subject are referred to as simple subjects. It's either a pronoun or a noun many of the times. The main term or words within a complete predicate are indeed what form the simple predicate. It is often preceded by a verb.

Example: My friend Genevieve, received a gold medal for her sports event Badminton.
In the above sentence; ‘My friend Genevieve’ is a complete subject and at the same time ‘received a gold medal for her sports event Badminton’ is a complete predicate.

Note: The components of the sentence are so called because they are a series of words used to describe how individuals build sentences together with the help of smaller components. The parts of a sentence do not always correlate to the different parts of speech; for example, the subject of a sentence may be a pronoun, or a noun, or sometimes may be an entire sentence or phrase. The parts of the sentence, like the parts of speech, are part of the fundamental syntax of English language, and it is critical that you take the chance to develop and comprehend these.
