have no sentence.
Verbs express either
action, like burping,
freaking, or touching, or
state-of-being, like am,
seems, will b
e. The first
kind of verb is called an
action verb, and the
second is called a
linking verb.

The direct object is not
the subject of the
sentence, it’s th
e noun
receiving the action. The
object isn’t d
oing anything,
it’s having something done
to it. A sentence doesn’t
need a direct object to be a
sentence.
Example: Jenny threw the
flowers.

A clause contains
a noun and a verb.
An independent
clause contains a
subject and a predicate
and can stand as a
sentence by itself. A
dependent clause
contains a verb and a
noun but cannot stand as
a sentence by itself. A
phrase is a group of
words that does not have
a subject and a verb.

between other words,
nouns usually, including
relation-ships of time or
