      Subject and Predicate

      Let’s read following sentences:

      Mina is tall.

      Girls are playing.

      Birds are chirping.

      Bold part of the sentences tells us about the person or thing we are talking about.

      Underlined part of the sentences tells more about the subject.


      Therefore,

      A simple sentence has two parts- a subject and a predicate.

      Subject- tells who or what did something

      Predicate- contains verb and tells us what the subject did or is doing.

       

      In some cases subject are hidden in the sentence only.

      Example:

            1.   Come here. (‘You’)

            2.   Don’t shout. (‘You’)

            3.   Stop. (‘You’)

            In the above sentences ‘You’ is the subject.
