GRAMMAR TO FORM A SENTENCE

OBJECTIVE

IT IS NECESSARY THAT STUDENTS KNOW HOW TO FORM PRAYERS BECAUSE SPANISH GRAMMAR IS DIFFERENT FROM ENGLISH GRAMMAR AND THIS WILL HELP STUDENTS TO BE ABLE TO ESTABLISH CONVERSATIONS WITH GREATER EASE

SIMPLE SENTENCE

POINT 1
A simple sentence contains a single subject and predicate. It describes only one thing, idea or question, and has only one verb - it contains only an independent (main) clause.

Any independent clause can stand alone as a sentence. It has a subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought.

For example:

Jill reads.

Point 2

Compound sentences are made up of two or more simple sentences combined using a conjunction such as and, or or but. They are made up of more than one independent clause joined together with a co-ordinating conjunction.

For example:

"The sun was setting in the west and the moon was just rising."

VERB

Here we can see that the verb to tell is followed immediately by a person (the indirect object, explained later), an infinitive with 'to', and, possibly, an object for the verb you substitute for DO.

Verbs also show a state of being. Such verbs, called BE VERBS or LINKING VERBS, include words such as: am, is, are, was, were, be, been, being, became, seem, appear, and sometimes verbs of the senses like tastes, feels, looks, hears, and smells.

For example:

"Beer and wine are my favourite drinks." The verb "are" is a linking (be) verb.

SUBJECT

The PredicateOnce you have identified the subject, the remainder of the sentence tells us what the subject does or did. This part of the sentence is the predicate of the sentence.
