Is the subject of the sentence is the action that takes place in that sentence?

The subject is the one doing the action or what the sentence is about. Examples: She is going to the store. (She is the subject). I am hungry. (I would be the subject). The action that takes place in a sentence is the verb.


What effect do adverbs and verbs give?

In a typical sentence, the subject (the one who performs the action) is usually a noun, and sometimes a pronoun. The action that the subject does is usually a verb. The boy ate his lunch. The doer of the action is "boy" and what action he did is "ate." But we can make the sentence more interesting by describing the noun-- which requires an adjective; or describing the verb-- which requires an adverb. So, the hungry boy ate his lunch quickly. Hungry is an adjective-- it tells us more about the boy. And quickly is an adverb, which tells us more about the verb.


Two sentence written as one sentence is usually separated by a comma?

If you combine two independent clauses (two sentences) into one sentence, you need to use a comma and a conjunction. Right: I am hungry, and I am tired. Right: I am hungry, but I am not going to eat. Wrong: I am hungry and I am cold. Wrong: I am hungry, I am cold. You could also use a semicolon if the two thoughts are closely related. If you use a semicolon, do not use a conjunction. Right: I am hungry; I am going to eat. Wrong: I am hungry; and I am going to eat.
