What best describes how you could fix a sentence fragment that is a subordinate clause?
To fix a sentence fragment that is a subordinate clause, you can either combine it with an independent clause or rephrase it to form a complete sentence. Adding an independent clause will make it a dependent clause, allowing it to function as part of a complete sentence. Alternatively, you can revise the subordinate clause into an independent clause by providing any missing subject or verb it may have.
How you do you tell a sentence from a fragment?
A sentence will have both a subject and a predicate (or one that is understood, for imperatives, e.g. "Stop!" = You must stop! / You should stop!) A sentence fragment will be missing either a subject or a predicate, or may be a dependent clause without an independent clause. Sentence: John has a dog that likes to play. Fragment: Has a dog that likes to play (no subject) Fragment: A dog that likes to play (no predicate for dog) Fragment: That likes to play (no independent clause) Sometimes fragments are acceptable in literary forms, e.g. where used for effect. "The killer had struck again! In broad daylight. And gotten away." (the phrase and clause are fragments that should have been part of the sentence)
