Congratulations go out to all at Rockstar, as soon as someone wakes them up. Back in ye olden days (okay, about thirty years ago) elementary school students were taught how to diagram sentences. The theory was that it would be easier to learn the parts of a sentence by seeing the underlying structure. However, as educators moved in the direction of free expression and away from basic mechanics, the diagramming system developed by Reed and Kellogg fell out of fashion. But, like fresh apple pie made from scratch, sometimes sticking to the basics is best. wyldstyle backpackDiagramming a sentence creates a clear visual that helps you analyze what you’re writing. 110v backpack hooverSo if you want to brush up on your fundamental sentence skills -- or you’re just a grammar nerd -- here’s a brief primer on how to diagram sentences.supreme backpack 36th

How to Diagram A Sentence Start with the key elements: subject and verb. Simply put, the subject tells you what the sentence is about; the verb tells you what the subject is doing. If you’re feeling rusty about identifying the different parts of a sentence, you may want to do a quick review before you attempt to diagram. Here’s how to draw a diagram for a simple subject and main verb: If the sentence has a complement -- for action verbs, a direct object; for linking verbs, a subject complement -- you draw the diagram as follows: Next, things start to get interesting -- at least in our sentence diagram. This prepositional phrase would be placed on a line beneath the verb. And what about object complements? These are placed up on the main diagram line, but preceded by a cool slanted line:Now let’s get fancy with the adjectives and adverbs that modify the subject, verb, or direct object by placing them under the appropriate word on a slanted line: If you really want to live on the edge, you can diagram an imperative sentence with and understood subject, such as: Go away.

Or you can diagram a question: Do you like pizza? Hold on to your hats, because as sentences become more complex, so do the diagrams. Some diagrams can flow across an entire page!Take a look at Kitty Burns Florey’s diagram of a sentence from a speech by Sarah Palin. More Helpful Hints For Diagramming A Sentence “I really do not know that anything has ever been more exciting than diagramming sentences.” -Gertrude Stein, Lectures in America You may not feel quite as thrilled as Ms. Stein about the prospect of diagramming sentences, and we’ll let you draw your own conclusions as to how effective the technique is for improving your grammar skills. But if you’re interested in reading an in-depth study of sentence diagramming and learning more about its offbeat history, you should definitely check out Sister Bernadette’s Barking Dog by Kitty Burns Florey. CORRECTION: An earlier version of this article described the word 'to' as a linking verb rather than a preposition, and referred to an imperative sentence as declarative.
