 * =Sentence fragment notes!=
 * To be a sentence, a word group must consist of at least one full independent clause.
 * An independent clause includes a subject and a verb, and it either stands alone or could stand alone.
 * Pull the fragment into a nearby sentence.
 * Rewrite the fragment as a complete sentence.
 * Ex.: We had just sat down to dinner. When the cat leaped onto the table.
 * A subordinate clause is patterned like a sentence, with both a subject and a verb, but it begins with a word that marks it as subordinate, such as //because//, //before//, or //although//.
 * Subordinate clauses function within sentences as adjectives, as adverbs, or as nouns.
 * Ex.: Although psychiatrist Peter Kramer expresses concerns about Prozac. Many other doctors believe that the benefits of antidepressants outweigh the risks.
 * Parts of compound predicates -
 * A sentence consists of a subject and a verb, its complements, and modifiers. Because the parts of a compound predicate have the same subject they should appear in the same sentence.
 * Ex.: The woodpecker //finch// of the Galapagos Islands carefully //selects// a twig of a certain size and shape. //And// then //uses// this tool to pry out grubs from trees.
 * Lists – a list should follow a colon or dash, and a fragmented list can be connected with a term like: //especially//, //such as//, or //namely//.
 * New! Improved taste!
 * Not again!
 * Especially my mother.
