            stringing together a series of words. This means that others must understand the sentence. A sentence usually consists
            of a subject and an object that conveys a statement, question, exclamation, or command. Writing is created by arranging
            sentences in a logical order that is understandable to the reader.
            A sentence is a group of words that makes complete sense. A sentence has different parts as shown below.
