When we come across a complex sentence, we will often want to diagram it. This helps us understand the parts of speech and the grammatical tools that are present within the sentence. In order to diagram sentences correctly, students must have a good grasp of the parts of speech and their functions within the language that is present.

Sentence Diagraming is a blackline master workbook that offers samples, exercises, and step-by-step instructions to expand students’ knowledge of grammar and sentence structure. Each lesson teaches a part of a sentence and then illustrates a way to diagram it. Designed for students at all levels, Sentence Diagraming provides students with a tool fo...
A sentence diagram is a visual representation of the words and parts of a sentence. A diagram shows how sentence elements relate to each other and to the sentence as a whole. A diagram frame, like the one shown here, is the starting point in diagraming sentences. Make the vertical line that cuts through the baseline equally long baseline above and ...
Every sentence has two parts: a subject and a predicate. The subject tells what a sentence is about. The predicate says something about the subject. A diagram shows words in the subject of the sentence on the left side of the diagram frame, and words in the predicate on the right side. The simple subject of a sentence is the key noun or pronoun (or...
Sheep graze simple subject simple predicate In a diagram, keep capitalization as it is in the sentence but omit any punctuation.
Sometimes the subject you is not included in a sentence but is understood. Place the understood subject in parentheses to the left of the vertical line. Example Jump! (you) Jump simple subject simple predicate EXERCISE Diagram each sentence. Children play. Stop! Listen! Parrots fly.
A simple subject or simple predicate may have more than one word. For example, the simple subject may be a compound noun, such as sugar maple, or a person’s full name, such as Dr. William Fort. The simple predicate, or verb, may be a single word or a verb phrase. A verb phrase, such as had been moving, consists of a main verb (moving) and all its a...
A sentence phrased as a question is diagramed the same as a statement. The positions of the subject and the predicate remain the same—the subject always appears to the left of the vertical line and the predicate to the right. Remember to keep capitalization as it is in the original sentence and to omit the punctuation.
A simple sentence has only one main clause; that is, it has a single subject and a single predicate. Its diagram uses only one baseline. However, either the subject or the predicate (or both) may have more than one part. In such a case, the baseline is forked to make space for the multiple parts.
A sentence may have both a compound subject and a compound verb. Then the baseline is forked on both sides of the vertical line, as in this example. Example Lee and Juan watched and waited.
The complete subject of a sentence consists of the simple subject and all the words that modify it. The complete predicate consists of the simple predicate, or verb, and all the words that modify it or complete its meaning. To diagram a sentence, begin by identifying and diagraming its simple subject and verb. Be sure to locate all parts of compoun...
Many sentences use modifiers to limit or describe nouns, pronouns, and verbs. Adjectives and adverbs are two types of modifiers.
An adjective is a word that modifies a noun or pronoun. It tells what kind, which one, how many, or how much. Examples include funny, those, five, and more. The articles a, an, and the are also adjectives. In addition, possessive nouns, such as Jack’s, and possessive pronouns, such as his, may be grouped with adjectives because they describe nouns....
An adverb is a word that modifies a verb, adjective, or other adverb by making its meaning more specific. Adverbs answer the questions when?, where?, how?, and to what extent? In the examples below, all the adverbs are underlined. To diagram a sentence with one or more adverbs, place each adverb on a slant line below the word it modifies.
In a sentence, an adverb that modifies a verb may appear before or after the verb. It may be separated from the verb by other words or phrases. In this example, the adverb suddenly may take three different positions. Note that all three sample sentences are shown by the same diagram. Since Then and suddenly both tell when, they both modify the verb...
A sentence may have both kinds of modifiers, with adjectives modifying nouns and pronouns, and adverbs modifying verbs. Example Loud thunder rumbled threateningly. thunder rumbled Loud threateningly subject verb adjective adverb In addition, the sentence may have other adverbs modifying these modifiers. To diagram an adverb that modifies a word alr...
Verbs that express physical or mental action are called action verbs. Some action verbs are complete in themselves, but others pass their action on to other elements in the sentence. These elements are called the objects of the action verbs.
A transitive verb is an action verb that is followed by a word or words that answer the question what? or whom? Such words are called direct objects. To diagram a sentence with a direct object, place the direct object on the baseline just to the right of its verb. Separate the two sentence parts with a vertical line that lies above the baseline onl...
An indirect object answers the question to whom or what? or for whom or what? after an action verb. Almost always, a sentence has an indirect object only if it has a direct object as well. In the sentence, the indirect object appears between the verb and the direct object. To diagram the sentence, draw a line that slants down from the verb, bends, ...
In a sentence with a compound indirect object, the horizontal line below the baseline is forked and the stack of indirect object parts is connected there, as in this example. Example Some resources gave us and our teachers useful facts. resources Some gave facts us subject adjective action verb direct object ind. obj., pt. 1 adjective teachers our ...
To diagram a sentence with all parts of a compound verb sharing a direct object, connect the horizontal lines holding the verb parts to the baseline at both left and right, as shown below. Then extend the baseline to hold the shared direct object. In some sentences, the shared object is a compound object. Example Students read and compared schedule...
A linking verb links, or joins, the subject of the sentence with a word or phrase describing or identifying the subject. The most common linking verb is to be. The word or phrase linked to the subject is called a subject complement. There are two kinds of subject complements—predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives—but they are diagramed the ...
A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb and renames or further identifies the subject. It may be modified by adjectives. To diagram a sentence with a predicate nominative, place the noun or pronoun on the baseline to the right of the linking verb. Draw a slant line between the verb and predicate nominative that ends ...
A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and further describes the subject. It may be modified by adverbs. To diagram a sentence with a predicate adjective, use the same approach as for a sentence with a predicate nominative. Place the adjective on the baseline to the right of the linking verb. Draw a slant line between the...
adverb EXERCISE Diagram each sentence. Decide first whether the sentence has a subject complement or a direct object, and use a slant or straight line, as appropriate, to separate that word from the verb. The current trial is rather remarkable. The young defendant appears frightened. The case involves burglary. Is the jurors’ decision final? The vi...
A sentence with a direct object may also have an object complement. An object complement answers the question what? after a direct object. It completes the meaning of the object by identifying or describing it. Object complements occur only with verbs having the general meaning of “make” or “consider.” To diagram a sentence with an object complemen...
