The correct answer is C. Many of the candidates.
The subject in a sentence is the noun or pronoun that is doing or being something. The verb expresses the action that the subject is doing or being. I can be a simple subject, a complete subject and a compund subject.
A simple subject is only a noun or pronoun. A complete subject includes all the modifiers. A compound subject includes more than one subject--for example, when there are two people performing an action.
In this sentence, the candidates are the ones who are speaking, so the <u>simple subject</u> is "<em>candidates"</em> and the <u>complete subject</u> is "<em>Many of the candidates"</em>.
Answer:
Tense.
Explanation:
A tense is a grammatical indication of when a verb happens/ occurs. It categorizes the time, the duration, the completeness, or the continuation of any act that is done.
In grammar, there are three primary categories of tenses- past tense, present tense, and future tense. And according to what tense is used in a sentence, the time can easily be known or understood.
For example, the sentence "I went home late last night" is in the past tense as the tense form of "went" is the past tense of "go".
Similarly, "I will be going home" signifies a future tense as the sentence uses "will+be+-ing" form of the verb.
