Topics in The Sentence

1

What is a Sentence?

  • A sentence is a group of words that expresses a complete thought.
  • It must begin with a capital letter and end with a punctuation mark: . or ? or !
  • Every sentence has a subject and a predicate (though not always clearly visible in simple sentences).
2

Phrase vs Sentence

  • A phrase is a group of words that makes some sense but not a complete thought.
  • A phrase does not contain a subject and verb combination that forms a complete idea.
  • Examples of phrases: 'in the park', 'with great care', 'must have gone'.
3

Types of Sentences

  • There are four main types of sentences based on their purpose.
  • Assertive (Declarative): States a fact or opinion.
  • Interrogative: Asks a question.
4

Transformation of Sentences

  • Exclamatory sentences starting with 'What' or 'How' can be changed into assertive sentences.
  • To transform: Restore normal word order, add words like 'very' or 'extremely', and change '!' to '.'
  • Example: 'What a beautiful flower!' → 'It is a very beautiful flower.'
