simple sentence
This is called a compound sentence. It consists of two or more independent clauses joined by coordinating conjunctions such as "and," "but," or "or." Each clause can stand alone as a complete sentence.
One independent clause + dependent clause= complex sentence Two independent clauses = compound sentence Two or more independent clauses + two or more dependent clauses = compound-complex sentence
When you combine two or more independent clauses along with a simple sentence, it is referred to as a compound-complex sentence. This type of sentence contains at least two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause, allowing for more complex thoughts and relationships between ideas. Additionally, a simple sentence can be included as part of the structure, contributing to the overall meaning.
You have described a "complex" sentence. - Simple sentence = An independent clause. - Compound sentence = Two independent clauses joined with a conjunction. - Complex sentence = An independent clause plus one or more dependent clauses.
A non-simple sentence is a sentence that contains more than one independent clause or includes dependent clauses, making it more complex than a simple sentence. It can be a compound sentence, which joins two or more independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions, or a complex sentence, which includes one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Non-simple sentences allow for more nuanced expression and can convey more elaborate ideas.
These are called compound clauses. An example: [I went to the shop] and [I bought a loaf of bread].
No, a complex sentence contains one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. A sentence containing two independent clauses is called a compound sentence.
A complex sentence has an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. A compound sentence has 2 or more independent clauses. A compound-complex sentence has two or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.
The simplest sentence consists of only a subject and a predicate (a noun and a verb) and is only one clause."Scott ran." is an example of such a sentence. It has one noun (Scott), one verb (ran), and is an independent clause (it stands alone as a sentence).A slightly more complex sentence can have two clauses as is evidenced by the following modification to the earlier example:"Scott ran, and he made it in time." The original sentence now contains two clauses (an independent one and a subordinate one).In general, though, "simple sentence" usually refers to a sentence with only one clause.
Compound sentence
A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses and does not include any subordinate clauses. For example, "I wanted to go for a walk, but it started to rain." Each clause can stand alone as a complete sentence, making the structure simple yet effective in conveying multiple ideas.
