What is a Sentence?



In simple terms, a sentence is a set of words that contain:

a subject (what the sentence is about, the topic of the sentence), and

a predicate (what is said about the subject)

Look at this simple example:

sentencesubjectpredicateverb YouspeakEnglish.

The above example sentence is very short. Of course, a sentence can be longer and more complicated, but basically there is always a subject and a predicate. Look at this longer example:

sentencesubjectpredicateverb Ram and TaraspeakEnglish when they are working.

Note that the predicate always contains a verb. Sometimes, in fact, the predicate is only a verb:

sentencesubjectpredicateverb Smokerises. 

So we can say that a sentence must contain at least a subject and verb.
