When you speak or write use complete sentences! Your message may not be clear if you use sentences that are not complete.

A complete sentence has two parts,
a subject and a predicate.

DON'T WORRY!

IT'S
EASY!

Think of it like this...
SUBJECT  +  PREDICATE  =  COMPLETE SENTENCE

The subject tells who or what the sentence is about. It can be one word, or more than one word.
Here are some examples:

games 

the public library

my uncle
 

The predicate tells what the subject does.
It is the action.
Here are some examples:
are fun to play
has many books
reads to me every night

Think:
SUBJECT  +  PREDICATE  =  COMPLETE SENTENCE

  Games are fun to play.

The public library has many books. 

  My uncle reads to me every night.
 

Keep this important point in mind...

Without a subject and a predicate,
a sentence is not a complete sentence.
