'sentence fragment' is not really a concept in Chinese I think. But then, define 'sentence', Western grammar has no solid definition.
句 is a character formed from 口 and 勹。 勹 is perhaps an old version of 包. That fits nicely with 'wrap your lips around this = say this' 句子 would then be 'something you say' in Chinese.
