The person, place, or thing that the sentence is about is the subject.
The subject of the sentence performs the action.
The suffix is -ent. It means something that performs an action.

This is the definition of the subject of a sentence, normally a noun. The action or identity (verb) is the predicate.That is called a noun. The subject of the sentence is the noun. A noun varifies a person, place, thing or idea.
It can take any form. The form is not decided by action but by the tense you are writing in.present tense -- He eats his lunch at 12:30.past tense -- Today he ate his lunch at 1:00.future tense -- Tomorrow he is eating his lunch in the park.In these sentences the same action is referred to - eat - but the action takes place in the present, past or future
A verb shows an action.
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.
No it is the person place or thing (noun), the action is a verb which is the predicate.
False. The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is being talked about or performing the action in the sentence. The action is typically carried out by the verb.
A verb is a word used to say the action of a person place or a thing
No, verbs do that. A noun is a word for a person, place, thing, or idea.
A noun is a word that represents a person, place, thing, or idea, while a verb is a word that expresses action, occurrence, or a state of being. In a sentence, the noun typically performs the action described by the verb. For example, in the sentence "The dog barks," "dog" is the noun and "barks" is the verb.

A complete sentence needs to have a subject and a predicate. subject = a person, place, thing or abstract idea. predicate = an action
The subject is the person or thing performing the action, the person or thing the sentence is about. For example, Marie bought a new book. (The person performing the action is Marie.) Another example: "Answers.com is a wonderful website." (What is the sentence about? Answers.com.) The subject often (although not always) comes at the beginning of the sentence, and is used with the main verb: My sister studied at Northeastern University. (Since the subject answers the question "who, or what, performed the action, "sister" is the subject.)
A complete sentence contains a person, place or thing doing something. The person, place or thing is called the subject of the sentence. The "doing something" part of the sentence is called the action, predicate or verb. Traditionally, text books say that a complete sentence is one that contains both a subject and a predicate.

I will be accused of being picky, picky, picky. What describes who or what a sentence is about is the sentence. Take the sentence "Jane bought dinner." What is the sentence about? It could be about Jane. You know Jane. She NEVER picks up the tab. But guess what happened Saturday? The sentence could be about buying. Jane preferes to cook, and she's good at it. But when Fred offered to cook dinner, Jane stepped in and bought dinner instead. Or the sentence could be about... you know.You may be asking about the subject of a sentence. Yes, usually the subject of something like a book is what the book is about. But subject as used here is a technical term, and not necessarily the substance of a sentence. In the sentence above Jane is the subject. Jane is the one who performs the action of the predicate.
