A simple subject is a noun (person, place, or thing) or pronoun that is doing the action (the verb). The word order in a basic English sentence is subject, verb, object ( the object is the 'receiver' of the action).
Example sentence: The man saw the bus. In this sentence the man is the one who is doing the action (see/saw) the man is the subject, see is the verb (past tense) and bus is the object.
However, subjects can also be a clause.
Exmple sentence: What we need is a sharp knife. In this sentence the noun clause what we need is the subject, but because there is no noun or pronoun doing the action, this is not a simple subject.
