Analyse the Sentence

Syntax, Grammar & Sentence Analysis Game

LanguagePrimary, Secondary, Sixth Form
Play Analyse the Sentence →

A language game to master sentence analysis: a sentence appears, you are told what to find (the subject, the predicate, the adjectives, the plural words…) and you select the right words before checking. You can mark a single word or a whole group. Sentences are generated automatically, so there is endless variety, and every answer comes with an explanation.

🧠 Pedagogical Benefits

Syntax without fear

Identifying subject, predicate, head and objects directly on the sentence trains parsing actively, far more effective than copying rules.

Word classes

Telling nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, adverbs and prepositions apart at a glance consolidates the grammar taught throughout primary and secondary school.

Gender and number

Marking feminine, masculine, singular or plural words reinforces morphology and agreement, the basis of correct writing.

💡 Practical Example

"The sentence “The big dog runs in the park” appears and the predicate is asked: the student selects “runs in the park” and checks. Another round asks for the adjectives and they mark “big”."

📝 Analysing sentences on paper

Prefer to learn without screens? Try this analogue version:

  1. 1

    Write a simple sentence on a sheet.

  2. 2

    Underline the subject (who it is about) in one colour and the predicate (what is said) in another.

  3. 3

    Circle the verb: it is the head of the predicate and agrees with the subject.

  4. 4

    Mark the other word classes (articles, adjectives, objects) with different symbols.

If you like Analyse the Sentence, these activities work similar skills:

Colour analysis

Give each function a colour (subject, verb, object…) and paint whole sentences. Very visual for memorising structure.

Cut-up sentences

Cut the words of a sentence and rearrange them by syntactic group like a puzzle.

Word hunt

In any text, find every adjective or every pronoun on a page. Grammar using what you already read.
