Mr. Morton a stack of presents.Sarah Subject gave Predicate

What???? How do I find subjects and predicates?????????? HELP! WELL… You don’t need a map, just some simple instructions. Let’s get digging!

The simple subject is the who or what the sentence is about…. The subject is the “do-er” or the “be-er” of the sentence. The simple subject is usually found at the start of a declarative sentence. Take a look: Mr. Mortan was given a present by Sarah. What is the simple subject in this sentence?

To find the subject… Identify and eliminate any prepositional phrase(s). *The subject of the sentence is NOT part of the prepositional phrase.

Sometimes there is an understood “you” that will be the subject. (The subject is not actually stated, but is “you” because the speaker is directly addressing the person to whom the directive is given.) Take a look: Go to the store! Leave the room! Give that to me. Pay the bill. What would the subject be in these sentences?

The complete subject are simple subject plus the additional words that often describe or explain the subject. Ex. What is the complete subject of the following sentence? The kind police officer helped at the accident.

The simple predicate is the verb or the action of the sentence. It shows a physical or mental action or describes a state-of-being. The simple predicate is usually found at the end of a declarative sentence. Take a look: Mr. Mortan was given a present by Sarah. What is the simple predicate in this sentence?

When additional words help describe the simple predicate, the simple predicate plus those words are known as the complete predicate. The complete predicate consists of the rest of the sentence other than the subject.

To find the predicate… Identify the subject and ask what the subject is doing. The answer to this question should be the predicate. *The predicate follows the subject in a sentence. However, it can be placed before the subject in certain sentences. Interrogative sentence example: Was it your mother’s purse? Sentence beginning with here or there: Here is where the girl will dance. (When using the adverb here or there at the beginning of a sentence, the subject will be after the verb.)
