"Grammar is the logic of speech, even as
logic is the grammar of reason."
Richard C. Trench
Definition:
"A
simple complete sentence consists of a
subject
and a
predicate.
The subject is typically a
noun phrase,
though other kinds of phrases (such as
gerund
phrases) work as well, and some languages allow subjects to be omitted.
The predicate is a finite
verb phrase:
it's a finite verb together with zero or more
objects,
zero or more
complements,
and zero or more
adverbials.
See also
copula
for the consequences of this verb on the theory of sentence structure.
