A sentence must have a minimum of a subject (which can be a noun or a pronoun) and a verb; and a sentence must express a complete thought. Examples:
- I ran. (the subject is the pronoun 'I', the verbis 'ran')
- Minnie ran home. (the subject is the noun 'Minnie', the verb is 'ran')
- The dog ran after the cyclist. (the subject is the noun 'dog', the verb is 'ran')
- We love strawberries. (the subject is the pronoun 'we', the verb is 'love')
There are some sentences that are a single Word. An imperative sentence can consist of just the verb, the subject is implied. Examples:
- Stop! (the implied subject is the pronoun 'you', the verb is 'stop')
- Come here. (the implied subject is the pronoun 'you', the verb is 'come')
