In a sentence

ほし星starがきれいpretty

The stars are pretty

How it works

が (subject) points out the subject — 星ほし (star) — as the thing being talked about. The sentence ends on the adjective きれい (pretty) with no copula at all; in casual speech you can drop です (is) and let the adjective stand as the whole comment.
