Explanation

A sentence is a group of words that makes complete sense and expresses a complete thought. It must have a subject and a predicate. A statement is a type of sentence, not the general term. A phrase is a group of words without a complete meaning (lacking a subject-verb unit), and an idiom is a fixed expression with a figurative meaning.
