can someone help me with diagramming this sentence?

Question

Nouns are words that name people, places, things, or ideas.

Answer 1

I have software that can create sentence diagrams, but I'm not sure how to reproduce those in this Answers format. So here are just the elements of the sentence Nouns are words that name people, places, things, or ideas:

 

Nouns - subject of the main clause

are - main verb

words - head of subject complement words that name people, places, things, or ideas

that name people, places, things, or ideas - relative clause (or "adjective clause") modifying words

that - subject of the relative clause

name - main verb of the relative clause

people, places, things, or ideas - compound direct object of name consisting of the single-word noun phrases people, places, things and ideas

or - coordinator
