Ms. Sue, would crustaceans be the Complete Sub and the rest of the sentence be the complete predicate?
If a sentence has the verb are, can that be a complete predicate as well?
Simple subject: crustaceans
Complete subject: These crustaceans
Simple predicate: wait
Complete predicate: wait for feeding time at high tide.
The verb "are" is never the complete predicate. It's used as a helping verb with another verb or it's used to connect the subject with the predicate nominative or predicate adjective.
These past three days have been quiet and enjoyable. What is the subject
A young boy asks for help.
The complete subject of the sentence is "These crustaceans."
To find the complete subject, we need to identify the noun or pronoun that the sentence is about. In this case, it is the word "crustaceans," which refers to a type of shellfish or marine arthropod. The word "These" is an adjective that describes the crustaceans, indicating that the speaker is referring to specific crustaceans. Therefore, "These crustaceans" is the complete subject.
The complete predicate of the sentence is "wait for feeding time at high tide."
To find the complete predicate, we need to identify the verb or verb phrase that shows what the subject is doing. In this case, the verb is "wait," and the complete predicate includes the verb phrase "wait for feeding time at high tide." This phrase explains what the crustaceans are doing – waiting for feeding time – and where they are waiting – at high tide. Therefore, "wait for feeding time at high tide" is the complete predicate.
