WHAT’S NEW?

Sentence is a group of words expressing a complete thought. It begins

with a capital letter and ends with a period, a question mark, or an exclamatory
point.

Any group of words not expressing a complete thought is a sentence

fragment. It is not a sentence.

Two sentences or more written as one sentence form, is a run-on

sentence.

Write C if the sentence is complete and RO if it is a run-on sentence. Indicate

where a period should be placed in the run-on sentence and what word should be
capitalized. The first one has been done for you.
