A record of past events and times, known to us all as history
We tried hard but there was nothing we could do.
A simple subject is the key word that tells the reader what or whom the sentence is talking about. The simple predicate is the main verb that describes the subject. A very simple example of a simple subject and predicate in a sentence could be, "Anna runs."
A simple sentence contains one independent clause.For example,John walked into the center of town.In this case,there is only one short,simple sentence.Another example could be,The train whistled past.This sentence is short and simple. A compound sentence contains two independent clauses which are closely related.A conjunction usually joins the two clauses.Remember to put a comma after the first clause and before the conjunction that joins the two clauses.For example;The team played hard,and they won the game easily.In this case,there are two sentences that are being combined together to make one sentence.Another example could be;Soccer is a low scoring game,but it is very exciting.This sentence is also combined together to make one sentence. Hope this helps!
No. Since we don't know you we can't write a sentence about you. A declarative sentence is a very simple sentence with a period at the end. You could write what your favorite sport, movie, or book is.
Yes.Here's an example:"Are Sam and Pat fit to play on Saturday?""They are."In the sentence "They are", They is the subject, and are the complete predicate.However, such a sentence presumes an antecedent. It could hardly open a new discourse.
A simple sentence from instructions on how to jumpstart a car battery could be: "Connect the red cable to the positive terminal." This sentence contains a subject and a verb, conveying a complete thought without any additional clauses. Simple sentences like this are effective for clear and straightforward instructions.
If a sentence is a compound sentence, you can break it up into two or more pieces which would be complete sentences in themselves. Example: I am going to visit my sister, and then I am going to go home. This could also be phrased as, I am going to visit my sister. Then I am going to go home. A simple sentence cannot lose any section without becoming a sentence fragment. For example: We are friends. If you remove any word from that sentence you no longer have a sentence.
He could not be specific when asked by the police, but he was able to give a simple description of the man he saw running from the house that was robbed.
You cannot end a sentence with I could not. I could not anyhow. Could you? Maybe you could. Maybe someone else could. But I know I could not. Example Sentence: I know I could not.
An example of a sentence with are could be:"We are very happy that you could come to our party."
Example sentence - She could wear the coat if she could find a seamstress to alter it to fit her.
Example: How could you do that to me? turns into: How could you!? or How could you do that to me!?
