A. Subject, Verb, Complement, Modifier (Definition)

1.    Definition Of Subject
The subject of a sentence or clause is the part of the sentence or clause about which something is being said. It is usually the doer of the action. It is a noun or a pronoun. All of the subjects on this page are italicized.
The location of the subject in English is normally located before the verb (verb). In the words of the command (imperative / command), you are considered as the subject says. Subject may be in the form of the word.
Example :
1. I am watching movie.
=> “I” is the subject of the sentence, controlling the verb and the complement.
2. You study english in my room.
=> "You" is the subject of the sentence, controlling the verb and the complement.
3. I go to campus by a motorcycle.
4. She is my mother.
5. It makes me happy.
Underlined word in the sentence above (I, You, She, It) is the subject. The subject tell us that is the person who doing something like watch, study, go, and much more.

2.    Definition Of Verb
Verbs are a class of words used to show the performance of an action (do, throw, run), existence (be), possession (have), or state (know, love) of a subject. To put it simply a verb shows what something or someone does. The verb follows the subject, it generally shows the action of the sentence, example :
1. We met our old friends yesterday in hospital.
=> word “met” is verb of the sentence, It tells us that the subject "we" that is the person who performs the action of the verb is "met our old friends” and the complement is adverb of place and time.

Underlined word in the sentence above (met, go, find, training, like, doing) is the verb. The verb is describes something that is being worked. Verbs can be affected by person and number to show agreement with the subject.

3.    Definition Of Complement
Complement a word or group of words that completes the meaning of the subject, verb, or object. Thus, there are three kinds of complement, namely: subject, verb, and object complement. A complement is the part of a Sentence that comes after the Verb and is needed to make the sentence complete.
Example :
1. My father drives a motorcycle everyday.
=> In this sentence “everyday” is complement. It is complement form adverb of time.
2. Cat caught a mouse yesterday in my room.
=> In this sentence “yesterday in my room” is complement. It is complement form adverb of time and place.

4.    Definition Of Modifier
Modifier a word, phrase, or clause that functions as an adjective or adverb that describes another word or group of words. Propositional modifier is a phrase or sentence that can be said to be started by the next word and terminated by a noun.
Example :
1. My Brother go to school everyday.
=> In this sentence have modifier of time “everyday”, because it’s show the time.
2. I put a book on the table.
=> In this sentence have modifier of place, because it’s show the place of book.
3. My Parents have been married about 25 years.
4. That is so beautiful.

The modifier normally follows the complement, but not always. However, the modifier, especially when it's a prepositional phrase, usually can't separate the verb and the complement.

B.  PRONOUN

Definition Of Pronoun :
A pronoun is used in place of a noun or nouns. Common pronouns include he, her, him, I, it, me, she, them, they, us, and we.
Example :
Adit is a smart. He studies a lot. He is making champion for competition. Finally he make be famous.
In the above paragraph, pronoun “he” is used instead of noun “Adit”. If we do not use pronoun in above paragraph, we will have to use the noun “Adit” again and again in each sentence. So, the purpose of pronoun is to avoid the repetition of a noun.
Examples. He, she, it, they, you, I, we, who, him, her, them, me, us, whom, his, its, their, your, mine, our and whose, myself, himself, herself , yourself,  which, this, that these, those,  are the pronouns which are mostly used.

3.    Reflexive pronoun
