#2: Initial revision
A sentence has a subject and a verb, sometimes an object. > He recites. (Subject: he; Verb: recites) > > She throws a book. (Subject: She; Verb: throws; Object: a book) A sentence fragment is missing some part of that. > Ran down the street. (Verb: ran; no subject) > > His impossibly high cheekbones. (Object: cheekbones; no subject or verb) > > Full of stars. (Just a descriptive clause; there's neither subject, verb, or object) Generally a sentence fragment means you have to _add_ something, not remove something. You might have to edit your question to include some examples, and we can show you what's missing from them.
