A sentence fragment is 'A phrase or clause that is punctuated and capitalized as a sentence but does not constitute a complete grammatical sentence.' Here are some fragments:

A simple complete sentence has a subject, a verb and an object. i.e. I love chocolate.

A fragment is an incomplete sentence lacking this property which can't stand alone.
