A sentence is a group of words that tell us a complete idea. It usually starts with a capital letter and ends with a period (.), a question mark (?) or an exclamation point (!).
For example:
- The cat runs.
- Do you like ice cream?
- Wow! That is fun.
Every sentence has two important parts:
- Subject: Who or what the sentence is about. (Like 'The cat')
- Predicate: What the subject does or is. (Like 'runs')
So, when you put words together to tell someone something, you make a sentence!
