Is listen to you a sentence or fragment?

"Listen to you" is a fragment.

Here's why:

* It lacks a subject. A sentence needs a subject (who or what is doing the action). In this case, we don't know who is listening.

* It lacks a complete verb. "Listen" is a verb, but it's in the infinitive form ("to listen"). It needs to be conjugated (e.g., "I listen") to be a complete verb.

To make it a sentence, you would need to add a subject and a conjugated verb:

* Example: "I listen to you."
