"was cleaning" is a verb phrase, so it would not be part of the subject. It would be part of the predicate.
"Was cleaning" is part of the predicate. It is the verb phrase that describes the action being performed by the subject.
"In the sentence 'It was cleaning,' 'It' is the subject, 'was' is a linking verb, and 'cleaning' is a gerund acting as the subject complement. Therefore, 'cleaning' is not a subject or a predicate on its own, but rather part of the predicate in this sentence."
Well, isn't that a lovely question! In the sentence "Was Herbert cleaning his messy room," the subject is "Herbert" and the predicate is "was cleaning his messy room." So, the subject "Herbert" is underlined in this sentence. Keep up the great work exploring language, my friend!
"Was Herbert cleaning" is a complete sentence with "Herbert" as the subject and "cleaning" as the predicate. The subject is the person or thing the sentence is about, and the predicate tells us what the subject is doing.
was cleaning is a past continuous verb phrase.
