Identify the subject and complete verb in each of the following sentences.
1. Please go to the store and buy some milk for the baby.
A. you; go/store
B. you; go/buy
C. store; go/buy
D. milk; go/buy
I think that it's D (milk is the subject and go/buy is the complete verb
2. Have you ever been to Georgetown to visit your brother?
A. you; been
B. you; have
C. you; have been
D. you; have ever been
I think it's D. (You is the subject, and have ever been is the complete verb)
thanks
1. D - no
go buy is the verb. But the subject is the person who is doing this action. Milk does not buy anything.
2. D - no
Ever is an adverb, not a verb.
Ah ok...thank you
1. B
2. C
Correct?
Yes, now you are correct..
Thank you
You're correct with your answers for both sentences!
For the first sentence, the subject is "you" and the complete verb is "go/buy." The subject is the person or thing that performs the action in the sentence, and the complete verb includes both the main verb and any other auxiliary verbs necessary to form the complete verb phrase. In this case, "you" is the subject and "go/buy" is the complete verb because it includes both the action of going to the store and the action of buying.
In the second sentence, the subject is also "you," and the complete verb is "have ever been." The main verb in this case is "have," and "ever been" is a past participle phrase that functions as a complement to the main verb. The complete verb is formed by combining the main verb "have" with the past participle phrase "ever been."
Great job! Keep up the good work!
