This document discusses the basic elements of a sentence. It explains that every sentence has a subject and a predicate. The subject is the part about which something is said, and the predicate is the part that says something about the subject. It further breaks down sentences into their simple subject and predicate, which are the main words, as well as their complete subject and predicate, which include any modifiers.
