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.

DIRECTIONS Write an original poem consisting of at least 2 stanzas or 10 lines or more. You must include: 1 Theme from this list
MrRissso [65]

My chosen theme was love, and how love can allow one to survive.

Simile→→→→→→→→→→→→→→→→→↓

The sounds of his laugh, like music to my ears,

Imagery→→→→→→→→→→→↓

Allows my soul to transcend beyond the heartbreak of my past.

His heart against my ear, telling me "it'll be okay,"

Personification→→→→→→→→→→→→↑

Drives me beyond the fog of sorrow within my own.

He laughs as he listens, and, of course, I do the same,

But my chuckles sometimes come from a place deep within,

Though his cheesy jokes tend to make me smile,

My hysterics and cackles arise from the thought

That no matter how my old cruel world used to hold me down,

How I limped and tripped, dodging the pain given to me without remorse,

I was lucky enough to stumble straight into his loving arms.

<em>This probably sucks but I'd appreciate a brainliest lol : )</em>
