1. We use words when we Speak.or write. We usually use these words in group in correct order.

The cat sat on the mat.
A group of words which makes complete sense, is called a sentence.
Thus a sentence is a group of words that are kept in a particular order to make a complete sense.

2. Sentences are of four kinds:

Those which make statements or assertions; as:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
This is called a Declarative or Assertive sentence.
Those which ask questions; as:
What is your name?
This is called an Interrogative sentence.
Those which express commands, requests or entreaties; as:
Be quiet.Have mercy on me.
This is called an Imperative sentence.
Those which express strong feelings, as:
How warm the day is!
What a shameful behaviour!
This is called an Exclamatory sentence.

3. Every sentence has two parts!

Subject and
Predicate

When we make a sentence

We name some person or thing.
Say something about that person or thing.

In other words, we must have a subject to speak about and we must say or predicate something about that subject.
(a) So, the part which names the person or thing we are speaking about is called the Subject of the sentence.
(b) The part which tells something about the subject is called the Predicate of the sentence.
For example:
Subject Predicate
Suresh runs
Birds fly
Girls play
My brother passed the examination
It is very cold today
The dogs bark at night.

4. The subject of a sentence usually comes first, but occasionally it is put after the predicate also; as:

Here comes the bus.
Sweet are the uses of adversity.

5. However, in imperative sentences the subject is left out; as:

Sit down—Here the subject you is understood.
Thank him—Here too the subject ‘you’ is understood.

6. A group of words, which makes sense, but not complete sense is called a Phrase. In the following sentences, the groups of words in italics are Phrases. These usually do not have Subject or Predicate.

Honesty pays in the long run.
The sun rises in the east.
The Prime Minister’s post is not a bed of roses.
Show me how to do it.
It was a sunset of great beauty.
