The Sentence

We make use of signs and gestures to express our thoughts sometimes but we cannot only depend on them. We also need words to convey our feelings hidden behind our thoughts and words are formed by joining alphabet.
Similarly we join words to form a sentence.

Bill cat on mat.
Go do so.
Will do at sat.

The above words are all in a group but they cannot be termed as sentences. The words in a sentence are in a proper order and they make a complete sense. For example:

Bill sat on a mat.
I shall go and do so.
Will you do my work?
The above group of words are sentences for they are arranged in definite order and they make a complete sense.
Definition of Sentence:-   A sentence is a group of words that make a complete sense.
