📚 Quick Study Guide

    🔍 A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence. It might be missing a subject, a verb, or it might not express a complete thought. 💡 Common causes of fragments include starting with a subordinating conjunction (like 'because', 'although', 'if') without completing the thought. 📝 To correct a fragment, add the missing element or combine it with another sentence. 🍎 A dependent clause cannot stand alone. It needs an independent clause to form a complete sentence. ✍️ Example of a fragment: 'After the rain.' A complete sentence: 'After the rain, the sun came out.'
