LESSON:
To compress and focus ideas, we often embed one proposition inside another. For example, we can make a proposition about another proposition:

I suppose that he is hungry.

That I suppose something is a proposition, and the thing I suppose is also a proposition, with a subject (he) and a predicate (is hungry).

By adding clues like "that" we show when we are embedding one idea inside another.
