ORIENTACIONES SOBRE EL TEMA: The Sentence

PARTS OF THE SENTENCE

Key: Yellow, bold = subject; green underline = verb, blue, italics = object, pink, regular font = prepositional phrase

Independent clause: An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence. It contains a subject and a verb and is a
complete idea.

o I like spaghetti.
o He reads many books.

Dependent clause: A dependent clause is not a complete sentence. It must be attached to an independent clause to
become complete. This is also known as a subordinate clause.

o Although I like spaghetti,…

o Because he reads many books,…

Subject: A person, animal, place, thing, or concept that does an action. Determine the subject in a sentence by asking
the question “Who or what?”

o I like spaghetti.
o He reads many books.

Verb: Expresses what the person, animal, place, thing, or concept does. Determine the verb in a sentence by asking
the question “What was the action or what happened?”

o I like spaghetti.
o He reads many books.
o The movie is good. (The be verb is also sometimes referred to as a copula or a linking verb. It links the subject,
in this case "the movie," to the complement or the predicate of the sentence, in this case, "good.")

Object: A person, animal, place, thing, or concept that receives the action. Determine the object in a sentence by
asking the question “The subject did what?” or “To whom?/For whom?”

o I like spaghetti.
o He reads many books.

Prepositional Phrase: A phrase that begins with a preposition (i.e., in, at for, behind, until, after, of, during) and
modifies a word in the sentence. A prepositional phrase answers one of many questions. Here are a few examples:
“Where? When? In what way?”

o I like spaghetti for dinner.

o He reads many books in the library.

English Sentence Structure

The following statements are true about sentences in English:

 A new sentence begins with a capital letter.

o He obtained his degree.

 A sentence ends with punctuation (a period, a question mark, or an exclamation point).

o He obtained his degree.

 A sentence contains a subject that is only given once.

o Smith he obtained his degree.

 A sentence contains a verb or a verb phrase.

o He obtained his degree.

 A sentence follows Subject + Verb + Object word order.

o He (subject) obtained (verb) his degree (object).

 A sentence must have a complete idea that stands alone. This is also called an independent clause.
o He obtained his degree.

Simple Sentences
A simple sentence contains a subject and a verb, and it may also have an object and modifiers. However, it contains
only one independent clause.
Key: Yellow, bold = subject; green underline = verb, blue, italics = object, pink, regular font =prepositional phrase
Here are a few examples:

 She wrote.
 She completed her literature review.
 He organized his sources by theme.
 They studied APA rules for many hours.

Compound Sentences
A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses. These two independent clauses can be combined
with a comma and a coordinating conjunction or with a semicolon.

Key: independent clause = yellow, bold; comma or semicolon = pink, regular font; coordinating conjunction = green,
underlined
Here are a few examples:

 She completed her literature review, and she created her reference list.
 He organized his sources by theme; then, he updated his reference list.
 They studied APA rules for many hours, but they realized there was still much to learn.

Using some compound sentences in writing allows for more sentence variety.

Subject
The subject of a sentence is the noun---or word group acting as a noun---that performs the action expressed in the
predicate of a sentence or clause. The subject may be one word: Sally loves chocolate. The subject may be in a noun
phrase:

 Seeing the parade was exciting.

 The black and white dog was barking fiercely at the stranger.

THE SUBJECT CAN BE SIMPLE OR COMPOUND

The subject is simple when one person does the action and is compound when two or more people do
the action. Example:
- Sandra grew up on the Street. ( simple subject)
- John and Peter make and their own clothes ( compound subject)

Predicate
The predicate is the part of the clause or sentence that says something about the subject. In other words, the part of
the sentences that is not the subject and its modifiers is the predicate. A predicate can be one word or several words,
not all of which are verbs.

The principal part of the predicate is the verb.

 The dog sniffed.

 The dog has been sniffing.
 The dog sniffed, looked around, and growled.

THE PREDICATE CAN BE SIMPLE OR COMPOUND

The predicate is simple when the subject does one action and it is compound when there are two or more actions. Example:

- Chris speaks French fluently.

- Joseph swimms and plays in the swimming pool.
