SUMMARY (Part 1)
1. A sentence contains a subject and a verb. It is a complete thought and makes sense.
2. The basic sentence structure is SVO (Subject,Verb,Object).
3. A subject can be a noun or a pronoun.
4. Nouns are names for any things: boy, food, rattan, John, Singapore, beauty, toilet, university, bus, etc. Nouns can be divided into 2 categories:
----------------------------------------------------
COMMON NOUN // PROPER NOUN
COMMON NOUN // PROPER NOUN

5. A Pronoun is a word used in place of a noun. It avoids repetition of a noun and monotonous in sentences. Only the subject pronoun is used as the subject in a sentence.
6. A verb comes after the subject (SVO)
7. The verb can be divided into 2 classes:
i) Main verb (actions): jump, eat, kick, smile, jog, cycle
ii) State of being (auxiliary verbs):is/was,are/were,has,have/had,
8. A verb shows time (tenses):past, present, future
