Question

What is a complete subject?

Answer 1

Hint: It is made of all the words that tell whom or what the sentence is related to.
For identifying the complete subject in a sentence, see who or what performs the action in a given sentence.

Complete answer:
Subjects refers to who or what performs the action in a given sentence. Without them, sentences cannot be really sentences; they are fragments. Subjects can either be simple subjects or complete subjects , which depends over whether they do or do not consist of modifiers.

In general, a complete subject refers to the simple subject, or the main word or all terms in a subject, along with any of the modifiers that might define the subject. A complete subject is basically all of the words telling what or whom a sentence discusses, consisting of any modifier.

The subject refers to the place , person or thing we are writing about while the predicate is what the subject is or does. Both the subject as well as the predicate may be one word or a group of words. The complete subject is the simple subject as well as all the words which describe or explain it.
