A tire that was wearing thin.
Is this a sentence or a sentence fragment?
It has two subjects, but only one verb.
A tire <~~no verb with this; therefore, no sentence
that was <~~pronoun with verb in dependent clause
What is it called when it's not a sentence?
ahh alright ty
i think its a sentence, but now im overthinking it and need a second opinion lol
YW!
