What is a "sentence"?
A sentence is a group of words that expresses a complete thought, idea, or statement. It typically contains a subject, which indicates who or what the sentence is about, and a verb, which shows the action or state of being. For example, in the sentence "The dog barks," "The dog" is the subject, and "barks" is the verb. Sentences can be simple, containing just one independent clause, or complex, consisting of multiple clauses combined together. They can also vary in length and structure, and they often convey information, ask questions, give commands, or express emotions. Proper punctuation is essential in sentences to clarify meaning and enhance readability.
