SENTENCE STRUCTURE


Sentence

A sentence is a group of words that are put together to mean something. A sentence is the basic unit of language which expresses a complete thought. It does this by following the grammatical rules.

Subject + Verb + Complement + Modifier

Sentence Pattern

 1. Subject
The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is doing or being something.

Example: 
Rully drinks water.
They are coming here.

2. Verb
A verb can be considered as one of the most important parts of a sentence. The verb is a part of speech which is used to demonstrate an action or a state of being.
Example:

Nana sings a good song.
I dont give up

3. Complement
Complement is a word or group of words that completes a grammatical construction in the predicate and that describes or is identified with the subject or object.
Example:

I drink a glass of bitter coffe.
Rini came here too early.
That girl is very beauty.

4. Modifier
Modifier is a word, phrase or clause that functions as an adjective or adverb which explains another word or group of words. Modifier serves to explain the time (Modifier of Time), explain the place (Modifier of Place), or explain how to carry out activities (Modifier of Manner).
Example:

Yuni cannot sleep properly in that room.

I will visit my Father tonight.


Sentence Stucture

There are four main sentence structures in the English language.
1. Simple Sentences-one independent clause; contains a subject and a verb.
2. Compound Sentences-two independent clauses joined with a conjunction; both of these clauses express a complete thought.

3. Complex Sentences-one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses (in the examples below, any dependent clauses are underlined).
4. Compound-Complex Sentences-a compound sentence (see above) that also contains a dependent clause (in the examples below, any dependent clauses are underlined).

Examples of simple sentences:
I eat rice everyday.

They are watching the movie.
 

Examples of compound sentences:
Doni drives bike, but Nico drives motorcycle.
We went to the hospital, and then we went to the house.

Examples of complex sentences:
When we arrived at home, we will repair your computer.
You should drink lot of water before you go to the hospital.

Examples of compound-complex sentences:
After we arrived at home, I went to school, and my brother went to field.
I need a new shoes, so my dad said that he would buy one.
