Ava says “The soup is hot.” has no telling part because nothing happens in it. Why is she wrong?
1
The sentence has no naming part either so nothing can be right about it.
The word soup is really the telling part of that sentence.
She is correct because a group of words with no action cannot be a sentence.
The words “is hot” tell what the soup is like so they are the telling part.
