How do you know that the group of word is a sentence?

Answer 1

Well, first of all, your question is not really a complete question. It should read "How do you know that a group of words is a sentence?" But to answer your question, if a group of words have a subject (person, place, or thing) and a verb (action word) then it can be a sentence. A simple sentence would be as follows: The cat is sleeping.
You can add more details to a simple sentence but it is still just a sentence. For example: The black cat is quietly sleeping in the box.
You just need to make sure that the verb (action word) agrees with the subject (person, place, or thing). For instance, if you have a single subject then you have to have a single verb. For examble you could not say, "The cat are sleeping." But if you are talking about two cats then you would say, "The cats are sleeping." I think an easy way to remember this is to memorize this:
I am
You are
He is
She is
It is
We are
You are
They are

Then just substitute the subject in your sentence for whatever it matches in the above example.

Hope this has helped you!!!

Answer 2

By the construction used in formatting that group of words. There will be a subject, there will be a verb, there will be an object, there may be modifiers or other descriptive phrases. But they all relate to the subject. If they wander off on another topic, they are no longer part of that sentence.

Answer 3

A sentence starts with a capital letter and exits with a full stop.The make up of a sentence is intergrated into a paragraph.
The children have gone back to school after half term.
They had a two week break and the weather was good.
Their next holiday is at the end of the summer term.
I hope you found this little adage enlightening.

Answer 4

A sentence must have 2 things, a subject and a verb.

If a sentence seems to be missing a subject (who or what the sentence is about), then it may be an implied subject, usually "you"

The verb tells you what the subject does.

Answer 5

Most English sentences consist of two parts: a subject and a predicate. The subject is usually made up of either nouns or pronouns; the predicate must have a verb of some kind in it.

Answer 6

It must have a subject AND a verb. Like "The boy ran." Boy is the subject and ran is the verb. The qestions who or what? and what did they do? must be answered. You can have a one word sentence.... like RUN! The subject is an implied "you" because the speaker is telling "you" to run!

Answer 7

A sentence is composed of a subject and a predicate and ends in a punctuation mark..Predicate is another word for "verb".

Answer 8
