50 Examples of Unimembres and Bimembres Sentences

Prayers Unimembres and Bimembres

Most of the sentences we construct refer to Actions, thoughts or attitudes carried out by someone or describe circumstances of the world around us.

This means that two main components or members can usually be identified in sentences:

Depending on the presence or absence of these two structures, in syntax sentences can be divided into bimembres (two members) or uniomembres (one member).

Bimembres prayers

The sentences bimembres are those that contain the two members: the Holdtor and the Predicate. For example: Juana was late.(where "Juana" is the Subject and "arrived late" is the Predicate)

In addition to the predicate containing the verb and the subject containing the noun, within each of these structures you can find other elements that add information. For example: direct modifier, indirect modifier (in the subject), circumstantial , direct object (in the predicate)

On certain occasions the subject is not named, but it is understood. In these cases it is also a question of bimembre sentences because the subject is present in the sentence but in a tacit way. That is why it is called

tacit subject. Speech acts are full of sentences with unspoken subjects, as it would become very tedious and repetitive communication if all the time they were naming those who star in the facts. For example: We went to the concert this afternoon.(Tacit Subject: us)

The pasive voice sentences They are also bimembres, but in them there is a modification of the usual structure through which the direct object comes to the fore as patient subject, and the verb is preserved but in relation to another agent (agent complement) that can be named or omitted. For example: The notes were turned in by the teacher.

Single sentences

The single sentences are those in which the two components cannot be recognized, as they are simple expressions that express a feeling, an emotion, a courtesy or that describe a fact of reality, but that do not involve actions directly associated with individuals.

The impersonal sentences, including those that describe climatic phenomena (Tomorrow will rain), and those that are built with the verb have or do, which are invariable because they always go in the third person singular (There is something strange about you).
