Well, I haven done subjects and predicates in a long time. So, my guess would be this bit,"you".

Edit: Read other post and forgot about some things. Lol, technically the direct objects are door and window as they are receiving the action close/shut. The subject would be "you".

Door Shut - The
and
Window Close - The


Door and Window are your subjects, and the words shut and close are your verbs.

The should be on slanted lines coming off of Close and Shut with The written on them. The lines would look like this \.

That's how that sentence would be broken down into brackets. The word The is used as modifiers in this sentence.


I'm a 4.0 GPA US High School Graduate.

Edit...fucking NGU, here's what I'm talking about..

You must login or register to view this content.

Except "The" would be following the slant of the line.

It's an imperative sentence, subject is You, verbs are shut and close, and the direct objects are door and window.

"The" is an article, not a modifier. A modifier would be a participial, appositive, or absolute phrase. Smile

Please read ChocoErased's post above. The subject is 'you'. Everyone who says it is door and window are wrong. Smile
