    SENTENCE FRAGMENTS

    A sentence is a group of words that contains three things:

    • A subject (that makes sense with the verb
    • A verb (that goes with the subject)
    • A complete thought

    A sentence fragment is a group of words that lacks one or more of these three things.

    While there are many ways to end up with a fragment, almost every fragment is simply a result of one of the following three problems:

    • It is missing a subject
    • It is missing a verb.
    • It fails to complete the thought it starts.

    Fragments are no big deal in conversation; spoken English is full of them.
