Underline the ten fragments in the paragraphs.
Los Angeles is a multinational city with immigrants from all over the world. Many of these immigrants live in "ethnic" neighborhoods. For example, Chinatown. Is a unique community of approximately 14,000 people. Chinese culture dominates the area. Have Chinese restaurants, clothing stores, bakeries, banks, bookstores, gift shops, jewelers, markets, beauty salons, and more. Some of Chinatown's residents have lived there for 40 or 50 years, and they have never learned much English. Because they haven't needed it. Is possible to get almost any Chinese product or service in Chinatown. Without traveling to China. Los Angeles is an enjoyable city to visit. If you have a car. If not, you will need to depend on public transportation. Which is neither fast nor convenient. Los Angeles has a new subway, but it does not travel to most of the popular tourist attractions. There is no system of elevated trains or streetcars. Only buses, and they can take a long time to go anywhere. Because traffic is very heavy. Especially in the early morning and late afternoon, when people are traveling to and from work.

Hey there!

Sentence fragments are phrases that cannot stand alone because they do not have both a subject  and a predicate (action), or they have both but have a subordinate conjunction beginning them, making it incomplete. Let's find your answers below.

1. For, example, Chinatown. This phrase has a subject here but no predicate.

2. Is a unique community of approximately 14,000 people. This fragment has a predicate but no subject.

3. Have Chinese restaurants, clothing stores, bakeries, banks, bookstores, gift shops, jewelers, markets, beauty salons, and more. There is a predicate but no subject.

4. Because they haven't needed it. Although this has a subject and a predicate, it is still a fragment because of the word because, which makes it a dependent clause.

5. Is possible to get almost any Chinese product or service in Chinatown. This has a predicate but no subject.

6. Without traveling to China. This is just complement but it is not a subject or predicate.

7. If you have a car. This is a dependent clause again because of the word if, even though it has a subject and predicate.

8. Which is neither fast or convenient. Another dependent clause

9. Only buses, and they can take a long time to go anywhere. This is another dependent clause.

10. Because traffic is heavy. Also a dependent clause.
