   • Sentences. Sentences are made of two parts: the subject and the predicate. The subject is the person or thing that acts or is described in the sentence. The predicate, on the other hand, is that action or description.
   • Clauses. Sentences can be broken down into clauses. For example: The boy is going to the school, and he is going to eat there. This is a complete sentence composed of two clauses.
   • Phrases. A group of two or more grammatically linked words that do not have subject and predicate is a phrase. Example of a complete sentence: The girl is at home, and tomorrow she is going to the amusement park.
   • Parts of Speech. A word is a “part of speech” only when it is used in a sentence. The function the word serves in a sentence is what makes it whatever part of speech it is.

   The Bank Dick, American screwball comedy film, released in 1940, that is widely regarded as one of W.C. Fields’s best movies. The comedian also wrote the film’s script.

   Fields played Egbert Sousè, a henpecked drunkard who lands a job as a bank guard after unwittingly capturing a robber. After hearing a con man’s sales pitch, he convinces his future son-in-law (played by Grady Sutton), who is also a bank employee, to embezzle money in order to invest in the scheme. However, bank auditor J. Pinkerton Snoopington (Franklin Pangborn) soon arrives, and Sousè becomes embroiled in a madcap scheme to prevent Snoopington from uncovering the missing money.

   Who played a bartender in 'the Bank Dick'?

   • Future Three Stooges member Shemp Howard portrayed Sousè’s favourite bartender. The Bank Dick was the last film to feature Fields in a starring role. Poor health aggravated by excessive drinking relegated him to cameo appearances in subsequent films until his death in 1946. The film’s title uses a slang word for detective (“dick”).

   What does he broke the bank mean?

   • With 'he broke the bank', there need not even be a bank, never mind a particular one, involved: this is an idiom. a (any, some ) bank. the (this, that) bank. This is like asking if it should be "he robbed a bank" or "he robbed my mother". Both are equally grammatical. They just don't mean the same thing.
