- We can say a meaningful sentence is a group of words that tells complete thought/idea.
- It begins with a capital letter and ends with punctuation marks like ‘full stop’ and ‘question mark’.
- It also answers the question of “who” and “what”.
- It has a fixed order of forming the sentence to give meaningful sentence.
- Examples:
- The girl is dancing.
- The dog s running.
- The baby is crying.
- Some other sentences who don’t answer “who” are also meaningful sentences.
- Examples:
- This is an apple.
- That is an aeroplane.
- It is a car.
