what is a group of words that has a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought

1 answer

A group of words that has a subject and a verb but does not express a complete thought is called a dependent clause or subordinate clause. For example, in the sentence "Although she was tired," there is a subject ("she") and a verb ("was"), but the clause does not express a complete thought and leaves the reader expecting more information.
