    A sentence expresses a complete thought through a subject and finite verb. There are three types of sentences: simple sentences which express a single thought with one subject and predicate; compound sentences which join two or more simple sentences of equal importance; and complex sentences which combine two or more simple sentences where one depends on another to complete its meaning. A clause and phrase are parts of sentences, with clauses being parts of complex sentences and phrases consisting of two or more words without a finite verb.

    (v.

    ) to cancel by authority

    The judge would not abrogate the law.

    abrupt

    (adj.) happening or ending unexpectedly

    A sentence is an assemblage of words so arranged as to convey a determinate


    sense or meaning, in other words, to express a complete thought or idea.
    No matter how short, it must contain one finite verb and a subject or agent
    to direct the action of the verb.

    "Birds fly;" "Fish swim;" "Men walk;"--are sentences.

    A sentence always contains two parts, something spoken about and something
    said about it. The word or words indicating what is spoken about form what
    is called the _subject_ and the word or words indicating what is said about
    it form what is called the _predicate_.

    In the sentences given, _birds_, _fish_ and _men_ are the subjects, while
    _fly_, _swim_ and _walk_ are the predicates.

    There are three kinds of sentences, _simple_, _compound_ and _complex_.

    The _simple sentence_ expresses a single thought and consists of one


    subject and one predicate, as, "Man is mortal."

    A _compound sentence_ consists of two or more simple sentences of equal


    importance the parts of which are either expressed or understood, as,
    "The men work in the fields and the women work in the household," or "The
    men work in the fields and the women in the household" or "The men and
    women work in the fields and in the household."

    A _complex sentence_ consists of two or more simple sentences so combined


    that one depends on the other to complete its meaning; as; "When he
    returns, I shall go on my vacation." Here the words, "when he returns"
    are dependent on the rest of the sentence for their meaning.

    A _clause_ is a separate part of a complex sentence, as "when he returns"


    in the last example.

    A _phrase_ consists of two or more words without a finite verb.

    Without a finite verb we cannot affirm anything or convey an idea,


    therefore we can have no sentence.
