Class 3 English Grammar Chapter 1 The Sentence

A sentence is a group of words that makes a complete sense or meaning.
Example
Mayank, eats, mango.
If these words are joined together in a proper order, we get a clear meaning. It is then called a sentence.

More examples:

1. When we say Mayank, we mean a person.
2. When we say eats, we mean an action.
3. When we say mango, we mean a thing.

We combine them
Mayank eats a mango.
Now read the following groups of words:
1. Mayank mango eats.
2. eats Mayank mango.
3. mango Mayank eats.

These groups of words make no sense and do not have any meaning as they are not arranged properly. Therefore, they are not sentences.

Remember:
1. The words of a sentence are placed in a proper order.
2. There must be a verb (action word) in a sentence.
3. A sentence always begins with a capital letter.
4. A sentence always ends with a full stop, a question mark or an exclamation mark.
