Explanation:
The subject is what the sentence is about. It tells us who or what performs an action expressed by the verb or is being described. A simple subject is the main word of the complete subject. The complete subject consists of the simple subject and all of the words that modify it. A compound subject consists of multiple simple subjects that share a verb or verb phrase.
The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes it. A simple predicate is just a verb or verb phrase. The complete predicate consists of the simple predicate and all words that modify it and complete its meaning. A compound predicate consists of multiple simple verbs that share a subject.
