Every sentence in English follows a certain pattern.
There are several sentence patterns in English. A decent understanding of these
structures will help you to express your ideas in several different ways.
SUBJECT
The Subject is the agent of the sentence in the
active Voice. Subject is the person or thing that does the action of the
sentence, and subject normally precedes the verb.
Example :
She reads a novel everyday.
They play football at the park.
You write a story about your life on your blog.
Verb
The Verb follows the subject, it generally shows the
action of the sentence.
Example :
I have eaten.
Adi has lived in Yogyakarta.
She had finished her homework.
COMPLEMENT
A complement completes the verb. It is similar to
the subject because it is usually a noun or noun phrase, However, it generally
follows the verb when the sentence is in the active voice.
Note:Every sentence does not require a complement.
Example :
Sarijon bought a cake yesterday
·What did Sarijon buy yesterday? –> a cake.
He saw Tony at the movie
·Whom did he see at the movie? –> Tony
I explain pharmacology to my students
·What do I explain to my students? –>
