The sentence and its classification

A sentence is a group of words that are used together to express or convey a complete thought.It may include any of the eight parts of speech; however, the parts of speech that are used must be combined accurately to form a correct sentence. The two essential elements of a sentence that are used to express a complete thought are the subject and the predicate. They are further classified into declarative sentence, interrogative sentence, imperative sentence and exclamatory sentence. The purpose of the interrogative sentence is to provide assertion with regards to the concept that is indicated by the questions. With this the reader will be directly involve with the development of ideas through asking the reader to phrase the statement. The purpose of the imperative sentence is to show the desire of the writer with regards to the topics as well as to the actions that is being indicated. Imperative sentence involves the reader directly through addressing him or her and asking for a response. These classifications are in the form of simple sentence, compound sentence, complex sentence and compound-complex sentence. The sentence is considered as a simple sentence if it contains only a single independent thought or clause. In this kind of sentence, the subject, the verb and the complement maybe compounded or either modified by a single word or phrase.

Edward Lear born 12 May 1812 in the London suburb of Holloway, Lear was the twentieth of twenty-one children. Edward Lear was an English artist, illustrator, author, and poet, renowned today primarily for his literary nonsense, in poetry and prose, and especially his limericks, a form that he popularised.

In 1846 Lear published A Book of Nonsense, a volume of limericks that went through three editions and helped popularize the form. In 1865 The History of the Seven Families of the Lake Pipple-Popple was published, and in 1867 his most famous piece of nonsense, The Owl and the Pussycat, which he wrote for the children of his patron Edward Stanley, 13th Earl of Derby. Many other works followed.

Lear's nonsense books were quite popular during his lifetime, but a rumour circulated that "Edward Lear" was merely a pseudonym, and the books' true author was the man to whom Lear had dedicated the works, his patron the Earl of Derby. Supporters of this rumour offered as evidence the facts that both men were named Edward, and that "Lear" is an anagram of "Earl".
