Nominal sentences present a relatively simple grammatical structure and fulfill their function in a direct way. Verbal sentences, on the other hand, due to the presence of lexical elements and more complex relations, have a more elaborate structure. Analyze the two examples below and mark the correct option:


“The little girl quickly opened the red box in the kitchen.”

“Absolute silence in the library.”


A

The nominal sentence maintains its characteristic of not using a verb and, even so, expresses a complete idea by organizing nominal elements in a clear and cohesive way.


B

Nominal sentences should not be considered sentences, since this structure only occurs with the presence of a verb, as in clauses.


C

Verbal sentences are considered the only possible ones in certain genres or textual types, thus reflecting the factual characteristics of the text.


D

Nominal sentences shift the subject’s action from a noun to an adjective.


E

Verbal sentences have in the subject [noun] only one element for verbal conjugation.
