Incomplete thought Sometimes, a sentence has both a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete thought:

These are subordinate clauses, meaning they cannot stand alone. They need to be attached to another sentence.
Directions Read over the sentences combinations you wrote. Circle the main verb in the sentence and label it “verb.” Underline the subject in the sentence and label it “subject.” EXAMPLE:
SUBJECT
VERB
The pizza in the middle of the table is fresh from the oven.
