Explanation:
Sentence fragments are groups of words that look like a sentence but are not actually a complete sentence. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. A sentence fragment lacks one or more of these elements.
You can correct sentence fragments by connecting them to another sentence fragment or a nearby sentence or by adding a subject or predicate.
