The subject of a sentence is simply “what is being discussed”, the THEME of the sentence. The predicate of a sentence is the part, which talks about the actions of the subject and the consequences of the actions.
A phrase is a group of words that does not make a complete sense. It is a part of a sentence but not a sentence.
In the above expressions in SUBJECT column, Nos. 1 and 2 are phrases because they do not make sense. Everything under PREDICATE column is phrase, because each of them has no subject.
