shown most people that the traditional ‘rule’ was too prescriptive. -the underlying rationale was that utterances / written strings should make sense: if you utter or write any of the above examples without suitable context, you’ll get some strange looks from the people you’re following. But in the right context, these are fine, often more suitable than complete sentences.
Where are the shortest examples (Yes, No, Here, Please! Why is that? …) sentence substitutions, and the longer ones, where a person coming in as you were speaking could make a good guess at what you were talking about, sentence fragments.
All of them, the Storm. Storm in a Storm.
is a sentence fragment. Note that it is given the capital and the stop given to true sentences.
Is this sentence wrong for the simple reason of lack of a predicate? If a sentence does not have a verb, it probably doesn’t have a predicate. Why is there no verb in the above sentence?
In informal writing, this sentence would likely be fine, if the surrounding context provides an obvious predicate. For example, the context could be:
“All the superheroes were in the meeting place. Why.” All except Storm. ” (Apparently Storm is a superheroine)
The first sentence above implies that the predicate is “were at the meeting place”. As explained, the predicate is “at the meeting place”

the superheroes except Storm were at the meeting place.” “I

In a human nature, one wouldn’t ask and get answers unless you have said “All of them came. All have come” ” – This is a complete sentence with a subject and verbal part. This sentence should not be overlined by verbs (except, of course, the subject is spelled), but it should be completed with verbs (not just the punctuations) Of course, in everyday language, words are used to answer and are not in complete sentences. What if there is just a fragment of a
sentence?
