Study Notes

Subjects in a Sentence

The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that the sentence is about.
The subject performs the action of the verb in the sentence.

Predicate in a Sentence

The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or being.

Plural Nouns

A plural noun is a word that refers to more than one person, place, thing, or idea.
Plural nouns are typically formed by adding an "-s" or "-es" to the end of the singular form.

Possessive Nouns

A possessive noun shows ownership or possession.
Possessive nouns are formed by adding an apostrophe and an "s" to singular nouns ('s) and by adding an apostrophe to plural nouns ending in "s" (s').

Simple vs. Compound Sentences

A simple sentence contains one independent clause, which is a group of words that can stand alone as a complete sentence.
A compound sentence consists of two or more independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).
