Parts of the sentence :

General Introduction : Generally a sentence has two parts.

They are-   subject and predicate.

Subject : The person or thing we speak about in a sentence is called the subject. 

As : Ram writes a letter. The dewdrops glitter in the sun shine.


Clarification :    In the above examples Ram and The dewdrops are the person and 'thing' respectively and we speak about them in the

sentences. They, therefore, are subjects.


Predicate : Whatever is said about the subject is called the Predicate.

As : Ram writes a letter. The dewdrops glitter in the sun shine.


Clarification : In the above examples writes a letter and shine in the sunshine are the parts of the sentences which are said about the subjects Ram and the dewdrops respectively. They, therefore are the Predicates.


Note : One may trace out the subject in a sentence only by putting the word 'Who ?' in the begining of a sentence. and the Predicate by the word 'What ?'

As : Ram writes a letter.                Who writes a letter ?                                   Ans. Ram


The dew drope glitter in the sunshine.                      What glitter in the sunshine.                              Ans. : The dew drope.


Similarly - Ram writes a letter.

What does Ram do ? Ans. : Writes a letter


and the dew drops shine -

What does the dew drops do ? Ans. shine in the sunshine.
