1. The smell of cooking is delicious to the hungry camper.
2. A good fire is difficult to build.
looking for simple subject and predicate
1, smell. Predicate. Camper subject
2. Fire subject. Build predicate
The only one you have right is that fire is the subject of the second sentence.
The simple predicate (verb) in both sentences is "is." What is the subject of the first sentence?
Camper
Have good time at the fair find the subject and predicate
You are correct in identifying the simple subject and predicate in both sentences. Let's break them down:
1. "The smell of cooking is delicious to the hungry camper."
- Simple subject: "smell"
- Simple predicate: "is"
- The complete subject is "The smell of cooking," and the complete predicate is "is delicious to the hungry camper."
2. "A good fire is difficult to build."
- Simple subject: "fire"
- Simple predicate: "is"
- The complete subject is "A good fire," and the complete predicate is "is difficult to build."
To identify the simple subject of a sentence, you need to isolate the main noun or pronoun that the sentence is about. The simple predicate, on the other hand, refers to the main action or state of being in the sentence. By understanding these concepts, you can analyze any sentence to find its simple subject and predicate.
