A sentence can easily be compared to a car. It has many parts that are interdependant and one couldn't go without all of them. Would you get into a car with no brakes? Surely not! Now, would you write a sentence without punctuation? I sure hope not!!! This grammar garage was designed to help students practice all their sentence parts with quizzes and explanations and hopefully get them to build Mercedes or Ferrarri sentences instead of Lada or Chevette sentences.
