I am going to help you. I heard you had some questions about grammar or sentence fragments, is it?

要來幫助你們。我聽說你們有一些關於文法與不完整句子的問題，對吧

Those can be tricky. This short slideshow will tell you all you need to know about sentence

那些句子會有些弔詭。這個簡短的幻燈片秀會告訴你們所有與不完整句子的相關

fragments. Pay attention, and you'll soon be a genius just like me.

知識。專心去學，你很快的會變成跟我一樣的天才。

Quite simply, every complete sentence has a subject and a verb. Take this sentence as

非常基礎地，每一個完整的句子都包含一個主詞與一個動詞。以這個句子

an example: The alien is hungry.

為例：這個外星人肚子餓了。

I'm so hungry. Need food. Must invade planet earth to find food.

我好餓。需要食物。必須要入侵地球以獲取食物。

In that sentence ("The alien is hungry"), alien is the subject; is hungry is the predicate.

在這個句子（這個外星人肚子餓。），外星人是主詞; 肚子餓了是"謂語"。

But "need food" and "must invade planet earth to find food" are fragments. They do not have

但是"需要食物"以及"必須入侵地球以獲取食物"都為不完整的句子。它們沒有

a subject.

主詞。

Yummy, yummy food!

好吃，好吃的食物！

That is also a fragment because it has no verb.

這一句同樣是不完整的句子，因為它並沒有動詞。

So is a fragment always short?

所以，不完整的句子通常很短嗎？

No, some sentences are very short like "I dance." Fragments can be either short or long. Take

不，有些完整的句子也是非常短，如"我會跳舞"。不完整的句子可以是長也可以短。拿

this one for example. "Although the alien is hungry" is a fragment. It is a dependent

下面這一句為例子。"雖然外星人肚子餓了"是不完整的句子。它是一個從屬

clause. These start with what's called a subordinate conjunction. Words like although, if, because,

子句。這些句子會以所謂的"從屬連接詞"起頭。像是 although、if、because

after, while, since are all subordinate conjunctions.

、after、while、since都屬於從屬連接詞。

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you.

啊，這有道理。謝謝你。

No problem. Now you know all you need to know about fragments. Always make sure your sentences

沒問題。現在你知道所有與不完整句子有關的知識。請隨時確認你使用的句子

have both a subject and a verb. Thanks for watching. Bye for now!

都含有至少一個主詞和一個動詞。謝謝你的收看，就先到這囉！拜拜～
