Key Notes :

📝 Simple Subject & Simple Predicate

Every sentence has two main parts: the subject and the predicate.

Simple Subject (Who or What the Sentence is About)

Definition: The main noun or pronoun that tells who or what the sentence is about.

Examples:

• 🐱 The little cat sleeps on the mat.
• ✅ SS: cat
• ❌ Complete subject: The little catl

Hint: Ask yourself → “Who or what is doing something?” 🤔

Simple Predicate (What the Subject Does)

Definition: The main verb or action that tells what the subject is doing.

Examples:

• 🐱 The little cat sleeps on the mat.
• ✅ SP: sleeps
• ❌ Complete predicate: sleeps on the mat

Hint: Ask yourself → “What is the subject doing?” 🏃‍♂️
