The document discusses the key components of a simple sentence in English: subject, verb, and optionally object or additional information. A simple sentence must have at least a subject and a verb. The subject is who or what the sentence is about, and can be found by asking "who" or "what" the sentence is about. The verb is what the sentence says about the subject, and can be found by asking what the sentence says about the subject. An object receives the action of the verb and can also be included. Additional information, usually an adverb, provides details like place, time, or manner.

In English language every simple sentence must have at least
a subject and a verb, such a sentence is called a "simple
sentence". subject of the sentence is who or what the sentence
speaks about. verb is what the sentence says about the subject.
in the following sentences verbs and subjects are specified.

The subject is a noun (any person, place, or thing). a pronoun also can be
the subject of a sentence, actually pronouns (I, we, he, she, . . .) are used in
place of nouns.
1) To find a subject in a sentence we can ask who or what the sentence is
about.
• Who is the first sentence about? Hamid
• Who is the second sentence about? The man

A complete and meaningful sentence begins with a capital letter and ends
with a period.

the subject.
• What does the first sentence say about Hamid? Hamid is jogging.
• What does the second sentence say about the man? The man doesn't speak.
