Sentence Fragments and Run-ons: -A sentence is a group of words that tells a complete thought. It tells whom or what, and it tells what happens. Your writing will be easier to understand if you see complete sentences. -A group of words that is not a sentence is called a fragment. Parts of a sentence are missing. ex. A good book. Makes me happy. A good book makes me happy. -Two or more sentences that run together are called run-on sentences. Use end marks and capital letters correctly to keep sentences from running together. ex. do you want to find out more about moose go to the library Do you want to find our more about moose?
