 Parts of
Sentence
A complete sentence has two parts.
Subject : The subject is what or whom
the sentence is about. The subject is the
person or thing in the sentence.

Example:
The dog is looking for something to eat.
Predicate : The predicate tells
something about the subject. It
has verb in it.
Example:
The dog is looking for something to eat.

Predicate
Circle the subject and underline the predicate in
the following sentences:

1. The monkey was sitting on the branch.

2. The lion chased and killed the bull.

3. I have made a cake.

 The subject tells who or what and
comes first in the sentence
 The predicate tells what the subject
did or are and comes last in the
sentence.
 The predicate contains the verb.
Important points to remember:

In most sentences, the subject usually

comes before the verb.
For example,
• You have broken my pencil.
• I am going to the US next month.

In imperative sentences, the subject is

hidden.
For example,
• Please, (you) sit down.
• (You) Don’t make a noise.
In such sentences, it is understood that
someone (the subject) is being spoken to.
™
In exclamatory sentences, the subject
comes before the verb.
For example,
• What a great singer she is!
• What an awful dream I had last night!

But in some sentences, the subject does

not come before the verb. ™
In interrogative sentences, the subject
comes after the verb.
For example,
• Are you ready to go?
• Where are the cupcakes?
Stay Home,
Stay Safe…!
