What is a sentence?
Answer
A sentence is a group of words that makes complete sense. It tells us something or asks a question. For example: 'I like apples.' or 'Where is my book?'…
Why is 'sweet oranges' not a sentence?
Answer
'Sweet oranges' is not a sentence because it does not make complete sense. We don't know what about sweet oranges — who likes them? Are they tasty? A sentence must give a full idea.
Is 'Open your book.' a sentence? Why?
Answer
Yes, 'Open your book.' is a sentence because it makes complete sense. It gives a clear command or instruction, and we understand what someone wants us to do.
What two things must every sentence have?
Answer
Every sentence must begin with a capital letter and end with a full stop (.), question mark (?), or exclamation mark (!). For example: 'She runs fast.' or 'Are you happy?'…
Correct this: 'anita likes ice cream.'
Answer
The corrected sentence is: 'Anita likes ice cream.' It starts with a capital letter and ends with a full stop.
When does a sentence end with a question mark?
Answer
A sentence ends with a question mark when it asks a question. For example: 'What is your name?' or 'Where do you live?'…
