What is a Sentence?
A sentence is a set of words that is
complete containing a subject and
predicate, conveying a statement,
question, exclamation, or command.
Basic Parts oF a
Sentence
Every sentence requires at least a verb
and a subject; a verb is an action, and a
subject is the noun that does the action.

For example:
I am waiting.
How to Write a Complete
Sentence?
• Capitalize the first letter of the first word
in a sentence.
Examples:
• The sun rises in the east.
• Riza went to the market to buy fruits.
End a sentence with a period, question mark,
exclamation point, or quotation marks.
Examples:
• I like fantasy novels.
• What is the name of the movie you were
watching?
• Most of the time, the sentence's subject comes first, the
verb comes second, and the objects come last. (Subject
-> Verb -> Object)
Examples:
• He is reading the book.

Subject Verb Object


• If the subject is singular, the verb must also be
singular. If the subject is plural, the verb must be
plural. This is known as subject-verb agreement.
Examples:
• She works hard for her family.

• Transition words and phrases
(also called linking words,
connecting words, or
transitional words) are used to
link together different ideas in
your text.
