What Makes a Sentence?

Hello fellows! Since our next lesson is about sentences, I want to share with you the basic components of sentences; these are phrases and clauses. A phrase is a group or collection of related words that may have nouns or verbals, but does not include a subject and a verb. While a clause is a collection of words that has a subject that is actively doing a verb. Here are some examples for you to understand phrases and clauses further.

    I think you forgot to include the subject, predicate, and the thought of the sentence as basic components of a sentence. :)
