Example Sentences In English And In Spanish

The prayers, in both English and Spanish, are syntactic units that we use to communicate. A sentence is a set of words that are put together and structured in a specific way to convey meaning.

Although sentences in English and Spanish have a different grammatical structure, they share certain basic elements that all sentence has, as a subject (which carries out an action), a verb (an action, state or process that a subject executes or suffers) and certain complements that add information to what is said (such as complements of time, place, direct objects, indirect objects, etc.).

Basic structure of sentences in Spanish:

The sentences in spanish are composed of two basic elements: subject and predicate. The subject is a noun phrase (a set of words whose nucleus is a noun) that has within the sentence the function of performing or undergoing the action expressed by the verb. For its part, the predicate contains a verb, which is the core of the predicate, and different verb complements that add information and create more complex sentences. Let's see some examples:

• Luisa (subject) walked (verb) down the street (complement).
• She and I (subject) were (verb) classmates (complement).
• You (subject) have (verb) a nice smile (complement).

Basic structure of sentences in English:

The sentences in English They are based on a subject or pronoun, a verb and objects or complements, such as the direct object, the indirect object, adverbs, etc.

The subject It can be a noun or a pronoun. In English, the pronouns are: I, you, he, she, it, we, you they. When the subject is a noun, it can be accompanied by an article and adjectives: "The white cat", "The black horse", "The handsome man", etc. Remember that in English the adjective is always written before the noun.

For his part the verb, as in Spanish, is the word with which an action is expressed, which is performed by the subject. Verbs in English are conjugated according to the pronoun and the verb tense. For example, when verbs are in the present tense, a –S Final conjugation when the pronoun is she, he or it: "She works", "He works", "It works". Let's look at some examples of sentences in English:

• I (pronoun) bought (verb) a car (direct object).
• You (pronoun) are (verb) a good friend (direct object).
• I (pronoun) drink (verb) coffee (direct object) every morning (adverb of time).
