A simple subject is what or whom the sentence is about, the main noun. A simple predicate is the action the subject is doing in the sentence, a verb. These are simple, not associated with the compound subject or compound predicate, which are inverse to these. SO:

Sentence: The old dog loafs by the fire.

Simple subject: dog

Simple predicate: loafs

A simple subject is the keyword in the complete subject; it is either a noun or a pronoun. In your sentence, it is 'dog'.

The simple predicate is the keyword in the complete predicate; it is a verb. In your sentence the verb is 'is'.
