sentence construction

A phrase is a set of words put one after the other that makes sense, like this sentence:
A sentence has a subject, a predicate, and one or more sentence complements. Unlike the sentence complement(s), the subject and predicate are necessary to preserve the meaning of the sentence.
The order of the phrase goes as follows: (complement)-Subject-(complement)-predicate-(complement).
When making a complex sentence, you put a comma and a conjunction in between the two separate ideas. Like in this sentence:
‘He reads a book and he continues to.’
During the sentence put after the conjunction, the subject is optional if already mentioned, like with the previous sentence.

If the subject is different, then it's obligatory to put the subject.
