Identifying Complete Sentences
It is true that….
Rule: If you can put these words in front of
a group of words and have it make sense,
then that group of words IS a complete
sentence.

A CONCRETE IMAGE OF HOW SENTENCES WORK
What’s a sentence?
• Here are three sentences:
– He smiles.
– Autumn leaves twirled gently to the ground.
– The park district will open an outdoor ice skating rink
in November.
Length does not determine what is and is not a
sentence. Regardless of how long or short a group of
words is, it needs two parts to be a sentence: a subject
and a predicate.
•The subject tells us who or what.
•The predicate tells us what about it.
Who or what?
What about it?
He
smiles.
Autumn leaves
twirl gently to the ground.
The park district
will open an outdoor ice
skating rink in November.
These two parts connect to form a basic
sentence, also known as an independent clause.
INDEPENDENT CLAUSE = SENTENCE
Who or what? (subject)
What about it? (predicate)
The subject + the predicate connect to form a stable structure.
We can have just one word in each wheel…
Children play.
Students studied.
But most of the time our ideas include more details.
We add extra words to the wheels.
The neighborhood children play basketball at the
community center.
Students in the biology lab studied cells under
an electron microscope.
We can expand the wheels by adding adjectives:
Which one? What kind? How many?
Old magazines are stacked under the kitchen
table.
The weekend seminar explains how to start a
small business.
Meditation helps create a peaceful mind and
healthy body.
We can expand the wheels by adding
adverbs:
Where? When? Why? How? To what
extent?
Airline employees worked diligently to reschedule
our flights.
We carefully loaded the van with furniture.
The driver realized immediately that he had
missed the exit.
We can also add prepositional phrases:
The windows rattled in the winter storm.
We loaded our hamburgers with ketchup, mustard,
and onion.
Some car dealers make most of their profit on
parts and services.
We can think of adjectives, adverbs, and
prepositional phrases as the water bottle
on the bicycle.
Regardless of how much detail we add, the wheels give
the same kind of information. The subject tells us who
or what. The predicate tells us what about it.
Who or what?
What about it?
Randy
loves pizza.
Companies
benefit from customer loyalty.
Efficient train service will decrease traffic congestion.
Subjects and predicates connect directly. Do not
separate them with a comma.
Incorrect: Carlos and his family, showed me that
honor is more important than winning.
Correct: Carlos and his family showed me that
honor is more important than winning.
Dependent clauses
Dependent clauses cannot stand alone. They
are like baskets that need to be attached to a
basic sentence.
One kind of dependent clause begins with a
subordinating conjunction.
Common Subordinating Conjunctions:
AAAWWUBBIS:
although, after, as
while, when
until
before, because
if
since
Here are some more dependent clauses:
As soon as it stopped raining
Because I registered early
When we need a quiet place to study
We can place these subordinate clauses on the
back of a bike.
Note that because
the subordinate
clause comes AFTER
the main clause, there
is NO COMMA.
We saw a double rainbow as soon as it stopped raining.
I got the classes I wanted because I registered early.
We go to the library when we need a quiet place to study.
Subordinating conjunctions introduce the
subordinate clauses that create the complex sentence
We can also place these baskets in the front
of a bike.
Because
Note that the comma
after the subordinate
clause signals that
“something is out of
order”
As soon as it stopped raining, we saw a double rainbow.
Because I registered early, I got the classes I wanted.
When we need a quiet place to study, we go to the library.
More Subordinate Clauses
Another kind of dependent clause begins with
the relative pronouns who, which, and that.
We call these
relative clauses
who works part-time
which includes a swimming pool
that is parked in my driveway
These clauses are not sentences. They are like
baskets that need to be attached to a bike.
These baskets go after the word they describe.
Sometimes they’re in the middle of the bike. Note that we need
commas on both
sides of the
relative clause
ONLY IF the
relative clause
does NOT
DEFINE the noun
phrase that
precedes it.
Frank, who works part-time,will be our guide.
The new fitness center, which includes a swimming
pool, will open in February.
The car that is parked in my driveway is Henry’s.
Sometimes the relative clauses are on the back
of the bike.
Note again that we
need a comma
ONLY IF the relative
clause DOES NOT
DEFINE the noun
phrase that precedes
it.
We are making pasta for the Richardsons, who do not
eat meat.
I have tickets to the jazz festival, which begins at noon.
Karen likes books that have a happy ending.
Sentence Support
Regardless of what kind of basket we add, we need a
basic sentence to support it.
Example: The new fitness center, which includes a
swimming pool, will open in April.
Basic sentence: The new fitness center will
open in April.
Basket: which includes a swimming pool
Relative clause
Fragments
A fragment is just a part of a sentence. It may
lack a subject or a predicate. Often it’s a
disconnected basket.
Disconnected clauses
As soon as I understood the problem. I thought of a
solution.
I was not responsible. When I was sixteen.
The village will enlarge the parking lot. Which
serves weekday commuters.
Let’s rent the same movie. That we saw last
weekend.
Disconnected description and detail
It was an easy task. Especially for someone so small.
The corporation provides employees with benefits.
Like medical insurance and a pension.
We have ordered everything on the menu. Except
fried buffalo wings.
We put an ad in the Lake Norman Times. Our local
newspaper.
We can correct these fragments by attaching them to
the sentence.
As soon as I understood the problem,
I thought of a solution.
I sprinted down the street, trying to
catch the train.
The Logic of Punctuation
Readers are looking for the who or what and what
about it of a sentence, the main idea. Commas help
them see that main idea.
• If you begin a sentence with a basket, use a comma
to show readers where the addition ends and the
basic sentence begins.
According to the weather report, tomorrow will
be hot and humid.
If we go to the early movie, we can save money.
If the basket interrupts the sentence, use commas to
show readers where the addition begins and ends.
The art gallery, which opens this weekend,
features local artists.
Ruby, my sister’s best friend, will loan me her
car.
If the basket is attached to the end of the sentence, the
comma shows readers where the addition begins.
The award was given to James Johnson, the most
respected person in our town.
They are living in the present, not the past.
