Subjects as noun markers
I am a homeschooler and am having trouble with the area of coming up with a subject that follows the pattern of: (example) Noun marker, noun, prepositional phrase. Can you explain this further?

Determiners are said to "mark" nouns. That is to say, you know a determiner will be followed by a noun. htm

Determiners are said to "mark" nouns. That is to say, you know a determiner will be followed by a noun.
So your pattern: noun marker, noun, prepositional phrase is exemplified by any of these: (the first word is the noun marker)
the cat in the hat
a man in his bed
my brother with his train set
John's book on the table
every student in the class
