Oración
From orar (to pray), from Latin orare (to plead, to ask), originally \"to speak, to make a discourse\"
Oración (sentence) is a group of words, within spoken or written language, that expresses a complete idea. It is made up of the person, thing, animal, or idea being talked about, and what is being said about that person, thing, animal, or idea. In Spanish grammar this split is called sujeto (subject) and predicado (predicate).
