Lesson 97

Parts of the Sentence - Subject/Verb

InterjectionsAn interjection is a word or word group that shows feeling. A mild interjection is followed by a comma; a strong interjection is followed by an exclamation mark.
Source: Lesson 85, like the introductory thereSome sentences begin with an introductory there. To be an introductory there, it must meet these rules: it must be the first word of a sentence; it cannot mean where; and it must be with a state of being verb.
Source: Lesson 96, do not fit grammatically with the rest of the sentence.  They are never the subjectThe subject tells who or what about the verb.  Source: Lesson 91.  They come at the beginning of a sentence and may be set off with a comma.

Example:
Oh, I like your new car.

 
 
 

Instructions: Find the subject, verbVerbs show action or state of being. Most verbs are action words, but a few verbs indicate state of being or existence.
