If a sentence contains a word group such as ‘that makes it into established museums ‘/’because viewers finally agree
about its quality’ we tempted to mark the subject and verb in the word group as the subject and verb of the sentence but
these word groups are subordinate clauses, made into modifiers by the words they begin with: that & because
The subject of an English sentence may be a noun or a pronoun that refers to the noun, but not both.
e.g some art it stirs controversy
some art stirs controversy
pronoun
most pronouns substitute for nouns and function in sentences as nouns do
the most common nouns are personal pronouns(I, we, you, he, she, it, they) and relative pronouns(who,

e.g he called me
I called him back
