The Subject in an English sentence is usually the noun or pronoun, which is talked about or is performing the action. The easiest trick to identify the subject is to ask yourself, "Who or what is doing the action?" or "Who or what is this sentence about?" The answer is usually the subject.

There are three types of subject in English language:
Subject | Description | Example |
Simple Subject | · This is a single word, typically a noun or pronoun. · It's the "who" or "what" of the sentence that performs the action or is being acted upon. | · The cat is sitting in the sun. · Meera is having her lunch |
Compound Subject | · A compound subject is made of two or more simple subjects joined by a conjunction like "and" or "or". · It indicates that multiple entities are performing the action or being acted upon. | · Tim and Peter are playing in the park. · Mike, Tira or Kate can come and be a part of the play. |
Complete Subject | · The complete subject includes the simple subject and any words like adjectives, articles, or other phrases that describe it. · These words provide more information about the subject. | · The soft white rabbit won the race. · The cute little boy is dancing in the rain. |

The Subject is the core component of a sentence in English language. It is the 'thing' that is being talked about or described in the sentence. The subject can be the noun, pronoun, or noun phrase that performs the action of the verb. For example: The girl is eating her food: The subject here is the 'girl' as she is the one who is doing the action, that is, eating her food.

Grammatically, in home and at home are correct. However, their usage varies in terms of context. The use of 'at home' shows something or someone is located in the home. However, 'in home' describes something that happens in the home. For more clarity, have a look at the examples below:
- At home: I left the keys at home.
- In home: The keys are placed over the refrigerator in home.
