It leaves you "hanging," or left without a sense of what is going to happen next. Let's see:

When I won, ...

What happened when you won? Jumped into a pool? Won the lottery? You don't know, so it's not a complete sentence.

Answer:

The group of words "when I won" is imply a fragment, since it is not complete in itself.

Explanation:

A sentence can be defined as a set of words, usually containing a subject and a predicate and, sometimes, consisting of a main clause and subordinate clauses, that is complete in itself. It starts with a capital letter and ends in a full-stop, exclamation mark, or question mark.

When we say a sentence should be complete in itself, we mean to say a sentence is supposed to make sense on its own. When we have a group of words such as "when I won", lots of elements characterizing a sentence are missing. There is no capitalization at the beginning, no punctation to mark the ending but, most importantly, it makes no sense. Information is missing and we cannot fully understand the structure. That's why "when I won" is not a sentence.

Consider the following three statements:
Rama09 [41]

Answer: A their weight in creases

Explanation: This would be a correlational relationship.

Correlational relationship means the occurances can occur at the same time...they might be associated but one does not cause the other.

Casual relationship is basically a cause/effect relationship...one event occurs because of the other.

Just because a childs weight increases, does not mean their vocabulary expands...there are skinny people with great vocabulary. However, that does not mean that a " chubby " person cannot have good vocabulary.
