Post Putting Words Together

PHRASE: an expression (can be a single word, but usually more) which contains a single thought but is not necessarily a complete sentence. Words make up phrases; phrases make up sentences. By some definitions, a phrase cannot contain a verb.
PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE: A phrase beginning with a preposition.
for example:I am sitting sitting in the class (here "i" is subject) and (am sitting) is verb,The phrase "in the class" is a prepositional phrase
while,(i am sitting) is a complete sentence
SENTENCE:the basic unit of writing. A sentence should have a subject and a predicate. The subject is the noun to which the sentence's verb refers; the predicate is the verb plus whatever other parts modify or elaborate on it.
Example: my brother sings(contains possessive pronoun,subject,verb)
types of sentences:
There are several types of sentences. The major ones are:
1-declarative
2-interogatory
3-imparitive
4-run on sentence
5-sentence fragment
