A compound sentence is formed by joining two independent clauses, which are complete thoughts, using a comma followed by a FANBOYS conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) or by using a semicolon. For example, "I wanted to go for a walk, but it started to rain" is a compound sentence using a comma and a conjunction.
