Fair is not a sentence.

Sentences require a subject and a predicate. Fair is not both.


Can you tell me how "No." or "Yes." or "Go." would be sentences? But why "Fair." is not?

"
No.

Sentences only require a verb.

"Go." is the shortest but complete sentence in English."


So "Fair." isn't a sentence but you say it is? Or what am I missing here

if an umpire sees a ball land just inside of the foul ball line, they would say "Fair" (with various punctuation depending on context)

great example thank you,

what about if they used it not as an umpire.

"Yeah but Charlie said he was old, haha I dont think so because hes only 18."
"Fair."
