The document discusses predicates and predicators in sentences. It provides examples of sentences and identifies the predicator and predicate in each. The key points are:
- The predicator is the simple word that makes the most specific contribution to the meaning of the sentence.
- The predicate includes the predicator and any other words that can function as the predicator in another sentence.
- Sentences can have one-degree, two-degree, or more degree predicates depending on the number of referring expressions or arguments in the sentence.

expression on the sentence to identify where is the
