The subject of a sentence is the object, person, animal, or thing you are talking about in a sentence. (This is not to be confused with appositives, which is a further definition of a subject, usually separated by a comma on either side of it.) The predicate of a sentence is what is being said about the subject in the sentence, and it is always a verb (this includes is, am, are, has, have, had, was). Here is an example sentence: Betty danced onto the stage. In the preceding sentence, "Betty" is the subject, and "danced" is the predicate. Occasionally the order of subject-predicate can be flipped. Here is an example: On to the stage danced Betty. In a sentence there can also be multiple subjects and predicates. Here is an example: Billy and Joel and Mary and Alexis raced and chased each other at recess. In the preceding sentence the subjects are "Billy", "Joel", "Mary", and "Alexis". The predicates are "raced" and "chased".
