Sentence Correction Rules

The document outlines 3 rules for sentence correction: 1) A complete sentence requires a subject, verb, and object. The subject is a noun or pronoun and the verb is an action or linking verb. The object describes the subject. 2) Words in a sentence must follow the order of subject, verb, then object. 3) Each sentence can only have one subject-verb combination, so long sentences should be split or combined with conjunctions like "and" or "but".
