Sentences

A sentence is meaningfully complete group of words, consisting of an action or happening (represented by verb) and a doer of the action or the subject. In Sindhi, the verb generally comes at the end of the sentence, with the subject at its beginning. Other words, related to the verb or the subject come in between the subject and the verb.
