What are complete predicates and simple predicates?

Answer 1

"Complete" predicates have lots of details (adverbs, phrases) about the verb. Simple predicates have simply the verb

Example: The dog ran down the street. Simple predicate: ran

Example: The dog ran down the street. Complete predicate: ran down the street

Answer 2

The simple predicate is the verb in the sentence. If the verbs are connected by "and" showing two actions by the subject, such as "ran and played," the simple predicate is both verbs.

The complete predicate is the verb and all the words that modify the verb and complete its meaning.

For example: The dog stole and buried the bones.

"stole" and "buried" are the simple predicates.

They can actually be considered a compound predicate, which is a type of simple predicate in which the subject does two or more actions.

"stole and buried the bones" is the complete predicate. It includes everything that can modify the action.

Answer 3

The complete subject is the noun or pronoun and includes all of the words in the subject, for example (complete subject in bold):

My favorite recipe for sugar cookies is my mother's.

The simple subject is just the noun or pronoun that serves as the subject, for example (simple subject in bold):

My favorite recipe for sugar cookies is my mother's.

A predicate is the verb and all of the words related to that verb. The complete predicate includes all of the words in the predicate, for example (complete predicate in bold):

We can make some of those sugar cookies from mom's recipe.

The simple predicate is the verb, the word or words of the action (or state of being), for example (simple predicate in bold):

We can make some of those sugar cookies from mom's recipe.

Answer 4

A complete predicate is the verb and everything after it. The complete subject is everything before the verb.

Answer 5

The complete predicate tells about the subject. For instance, in the sentence, "The dog ran quickly down the street." The complete predicate is "ran quickly down the street."
