Fragments are incomplete sentences. Run-ons, comma splices, and fused sentences are all names given to compound sentences that are not punctuated correctly.

A verb, from the Latin verbum meaning word, is a word (part of speech) that in syntax conveys an action (bring, read, walk, run, learn), an occurrence (happen, become), or a state of being (be, exist, stand).
