Subject and predicate of the sentence
For can form a sentence (any kind) two phrases are required to perform two essential functions of speech: the role of subject and the predicate function.

• The noun phrase, however, can perform other functions (direct object, for example), in addition to the subject.

There can be no predicate sentences, but there are those without subject. They are called impersonal sentences .
The impersonal sentences are those that have as an impersonal verb predicate (such as rain, sunrise, etc.)..
also considered impersonal sentences formed with the verbs have and make , such as: There are many reasons that make it appropriate. There were parties in the neighborhood ...
