Sentence pattern | Find Teacher Post Worksheets - Free Printable

To identify the sentence pattern, we need to break down each sentence into its main parts:
* S = Subject (Who or what is doing the action?)
* V = Verb (What is the action or state of being?)
* O = Object (Who or what receives the action?)
* C = Complement (A word that describes the subject or object, often following verbs like "is," "became," or "seems.")
* A = Adverbial/Adjunct (Words that tell us where, when, or how something happened. These are often optional.)

17. It helps get independence in 1947. *(Note: This sentence seems to have a typo in the original worksheet, likely missing a subject like "India" or meant to be passive. Assuming standard structure based on visible words)*:

* Subject: It (or implied subject)
* Verb: helps/get
* Object: independence
* Adverb: in 1947
* Pattern: SVOA (assuming "independence" is the object of the action).
