How do you use tale in a sentence?

Answer 1

First identify the part of speech. Tale is a noun because it is a name for a thing. Nouns do lots of jobs in a sentence but most often they are the subjects of simple sentences. The subject noun is the person, place, thing or idea that is doing something or being described. I will use another noun, dog, as an example.

A dog runs fast. The sentence tells me what the noun dog is doing.

A dog is a good friend. The sentence describes the dog being something.

Do the same with Tale by either telling what the tale is doing or describe what the tale is like (remember tale means a story so my two sentences would not make sense with it.).

A more complicated senentce puts the noun after the verb and the longer description first: The fastest thing in the world is a dog.

Nouns can also be used as objects and even as a special type of adjectives:

It was of a dog I wanted to speak.

I will be in the dog house if I don't do my own work.
