What is a simple predicate and explain in a sentence?
Usually a sentence is divided into the subject and the predicate. The subject is all of the words that make up who/what is doing the action in the sentence. The predicate is all of the words that make up the action being performed. Ex: My eighty-five year old gray-haired grandmother bought a new, red Porsche. Subject: My eighty-five year old gray-haired grandmother Predicate: bought a new, red Porsche. The simple subject is the one, main noun that is doing the action (grandmother) The simple predicate is the one, main verb that is the action being performed (bought). Sometimes, the sentence will have a helping verb in it, also. Ex.: My mother is watering the flowers.
