Ορισμός και Σημασία του "predicate"

01

a fundamental component of a sentence that contains the verb and provides information about the subject, including actions, states, or descriptions

What is a "predicate"?

A predicate is the part of a sentence that tells something about the subject, usually including the verb and any objects or modifiers associated with that verb. It provides information about what the subject does or what is happening to the subject. For example, in the sentence "The dog barks loudly," "barks loudly" is the predicate that describes the action performed by the subject "the dog." Predicates can be simple, consisting of just the verb, or complex, including additional information like objects or adverbs. Understanding the predicate is essential for grasping the complete meaning of a sentence, as it links the subject to the action or state being expressed.
