Which one are you thinking?

"The simple predicate, or verb, is the main word or word group that tells something about the subject."

So, what do you think it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

toy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Keep in mind that the predicate is the verb. Puppy is the subject, so what did the puppy do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

grabbed the large toy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so let's put this into a sentence. Would it make sense to say "The puppy grabbed" or to say "The puppy the large toy?"
