"Complete" predicates have lots of details (adverbs, phrases) about the verb. Simple predicates have simply the verb

Example: The dog ran down the street. Simple predicate: ran

What is a simple predicate?

A simple predicate is the verb and any auxiliary verbs that might be present in the sentence.Examples:The dog barks.I will go.She will not scream. (not is an adverb and not part of the simple predicate.)The simple predicate is the main verb in the predicate that tells what the subject does.The complete predicate is the verb and the words that follow the verb that are related to that verb.A sentence can have more than one predicate.Examples:The dog wagged its tail. (the simple predicate is 'wagged')The dog wagged its tail. (the complete predicate is 'wagged its tail')The dog wagged its tail and ran for the ball. (the two simple predicates are 'wagged' and 'ran')


What is a predicate?

The predicate is the part of the sentences that is not the subject and its modifiers. A predicate is the verb and the words that follow the verb that are related to that verb. A sentence can have one or more predicates. A predicate may be just a verb.The simple predicate is the verb or verb phrase in the sentence (the simple predicate includes helper verbs such as did and can, but not adverbs).The complete predicate includes the verb and all the words that go with it to tell about the subject.For Example: "I did not go to school."Complete predicate - did not go to schoolSimple predicate - did goExamples of predicates in bold:Mary is driving. (the predicate is a verb only)He will come soon. (soon is an adverb modifying the verb 'will come')Mom made some chocolate chip cookies.We had some lunch and then went to the movie. (this sentence has two predicates)

What is the differences between the simple predicate and a complete predicate?

Predicates: Complete predicates are all words other than the subject and its modifiers. Simple predicates are only the verb with helping word (i.e. has, have, had, was, is, etc.) If there are any. Simple predicates are the part of the predicate that includes only the verb(s). The dog stole and buried the bones. "stole" and "buried" are the simple predicates. They can actually be considered a compound predicate, which is a type of simple predicate in which the subject does two or more actions. "stole and buried the bones" is the complex predicate. It includes everything that can modify the action.

What is true of all predicates?

All predicates are statements that assert something about a subject, typically comprising a verb and any objects or modifiers. They can be classified into various types, such as simple, compound, or complex predicates, depending on their structure. Predicates play a crucial role in forming complete sentences, conveying actions, states, or conditions related to the subject. Additionally, they can vary in specificity and can be true or false, depending on the context.
