Answer to Question 1

fragment
When the writing is an incomplete thought, it is called a sentence fragment. A sentence is a
group of words that expresses a complete thought and includes a subject and a predicate.

Answer to Question 2

predicate
The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells what the subject is or does or what is done
to the subject. The simple predicate is the main verb of the sentence plus any helping verbs,
usually the various forms of the verb to be. The complete predicate is the simple predicate and
all the words that modify it.
