Such a word or a group of words that conveys a complete meaning to the listener is known as sentence. It may contain a single clause as well as many clauses.
A typical sentence contains a subject and predicate, but it's not necessary for a sentence to contain a subject and predicate to be called a sentence. It maybe an assertion or statement, question, command, request or a feeling expression.
