The shortest English sentence is 'it is'. It has a noun and a verb, which is what every sentence must have. 'It' is the noun and 'is' is the verb.

Well, actually, the shortest English sentence would have to be I am or I go or I do, any of which is one letter shorter. Grammatically speaking, Go as a command is also a complete sentence, as is Be. If you include unqualified interjections, then the hands-down winner would have to be O!

Can you give me an example of a complete subject and a complete predicate in the same sentence?

It is impossible to form a sentence without a complete subject and a complete predicate. Those are the two required constituent parts of any sentence. The subject is the simple subject and any of its associated parts, such as adjectives, and the predicate is the verb and any of its associated parts, such as adverbs and predicate objects. The shortest possible sentence in the English language is, "I am." The subject is "I" and the predicate is "am."

What is the shortest sentence in english language?

I'm. it has two letters so i guess it is tied with "go" as a sentence (my friend says go is because technically it has an implied subject) if either are legal sentences, and I'm not sure if go is because the definition of sentence I heard was a subject and a verb so if you count the contraction 'm (am) as a verb than these two are tied."I am" or "I do" would be the shortest sentences in the English language.The imperatives Be, Do, and Go may be complete sentences.No.It would be an imperative sentence, so that the subject is implied. This way the sentence can consist of only the verb: "Go."
