Naming and telling part (subject and predicate)






                                      A sentence is a group of words which expresses
                                                     a complete thought.
                                                    Itconsists of two parts.









                                    Naming part/
                                       Subject                               Predicate







                       Which tells us who or what the                Part of a sentence which
                             sentence is about.                       tells about the subject.








                         John is flying a kite.                             Suman and kajol are
                          I wrote him a letter.                                playing tennis.
                                                                                       .






               Learning objective: The students will learn how to identify the naming part
               and telling part in a sentence.

               There are two parts of a sentence. The naming part and the telling part.


                     The naming part is also known as the “Subject”.

                     The telling part is also known as the “Predicate”.
                     Every complete sentence contains two parts: a subject and
                       a predicate. The subject is what (or whom) the sentence is about,

                       while the predicate tells us something about the subject.
