∙ 14y agoA dependent clause has a dependent word at the beginning of the sentence, but it has no subject in the sentence will that be a fragment?
To fix the sentence fragment "Hit the stone hard," you can add a subject at the beginning, such as "He hit the stone hard." This creates a complete sentence with a subject, verb, and object.
Yes, a dependent clause without a subject is considered a sentence fragment because it does not express a complete thought on its own. It lacks the necessary components to function as a complete sentence.
Yes, "Is you won the trophy" is a fragment sentence because it is missing a subject and does not express a complete thought. It could be corrected by adding the subject "You" at the beginning to make it a complete sentence, such as "You won the trophy."
A sentence missing a subject or a verb is a fragment.
A sentence fragment is a part of a sentence, such as just the subject noun, or just a verb.
Yes, "When did you go?" is a sentence fragment because it is missing a subject. Adding a subject, such as "Where did you go," would make it a complete sentence.
"The cat purred." is a sentence because it has a subject, which is the cat and a verb which is purred. A sentence fragment has either a missing subject, a missing verb, or both.
A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence. A complete sentence requires at least a subject and verb. A sentence fragment is missing one of these.
In order to not write a sentence fragment, you must always have a subject in your sentence and a predicate. For example: Fragment: Went to the movies. Sentence: I went to the movies.
A sentence fragment can be joined to another fragment or sentence, or the missing part (subject, predicate, object) can be supplied.
A sentence will have both a subject and a predicate (or one that is understood, for imperatives, e.g. "Stop!" = You must stop! / You should stop!) A sentence fragment will be missing either a subject or a predicate, or may be a dependent clause without an independent clause. Sentence: John has a dog that likes to play. Fragment: Has a dog that likes to play (no subject) Fragment: A dog that likes to play (no predicate for dog) Fragment: That likes to play (no independent clause) Sometimes fragments are acceptable in literary forms, e.g. where used for effect. "The killer had struck again! In broad daylight. And gotten away." (the phrase and clause are fragments that should have been part of the sentence)
A sentence fragment is part of a sentence that has either no subject or predicate. In most instances, it does not make sense if it stands alone. "Going to the races" is a sentence fragment. WHO is going? The only time this would not be a fragment is in response to a question in dialogue.
