What is the subject and verb in this sentence The smell of freshly baked bread at bakery near your apartment making you hungry?

This sentence is grammatically incorrect and lacks a clear subject-verb structure. Here's why:

* Missing Verb: There's no clear verb that indicates an action or state of being. "Making" seems like a verb, but it's acting as a participle, describing the smell rather than performing an action.

* Unclear Subject: The sentence implies that the smell is making you hungry, but "smell" is not a subject that can perform an action.

To make it a grammatically correct sentence, you could restructure it as follows:

* "The smell of freshly baked bread at the bakery near your apartment makes you hungry."

* Subject: "The smell"

* Verb: "makes"

This sentence clarifies that the smell is the subject and the verb "makes" describes its action of causing hunger.
