SIMPLE SENTENCE

Simple sentences are independent clauses.
They contain a subject and a predicate.
Rule 1: Simple sentences can be very short, consisting of only one word (a
noun) for the subject and one word (a verb) for the predicate. The noun is called
the simple subject, and the verb is the simple predicate.
John laughed.
Rule 2: Simple sentences can be long, although they still consist of one subject
(a noun and modifiers) and one predicate (a verb and other elements). The noun
is called the simple subject, and the verb is the simple predicate.
The tall, good-looking boy with the curly blond hair laughed uproariously at
his best friend’s suggestion.
Exercise A. Identify the subject and predicate in these simple sentences.
Circle the simple subject and underline the simple predicate.
