In the investigation both of the orthography and signification of words, their ETYMOLOGY was necessarily to be considered, and t

hey were therefore to be divided into primitives and derivatives. A primitive word, is that which can be traced no further to any English root; thus circumspect, circumvent, circumstance, delude, concave and complicate, though compounds in the Latin, are to us primitives. –Preface to A Dictionary of the English Language, Samuel Johnson What is the connotation of the word primitives as it is used in the passage?

The fence was very strong. In this sentence is a predicate .
NNADVOKAT [17]

The predicate is the very and everything that follows after it, which could include adverbs, prepositional phrases, and other parts of speech.  For example, "The dog ran across the street to the neighbor's house".  Find the verb (the action or in your case, a linking verb such as is, are, was, wear, am).  In my example, the verb is 'ran'.  So the predicate is:

    -ran across the street to the neighbor's house

For your sentence, the predicate is -was very strong.
