A Simple Sentence contains a subject and a verb, as opposed to a compound sentence, which is more like two sentences combined by a conjunction (and, but, or, although, etc), commas, or semi colon(;). Examples of Simple Sentences: The dog ran. Most humans are omnivores. George, eat all of your vegetables. Examples of Complex Sentences: The dog ran towards the bus, but it was driving at high speed. Humans are omnivorous creatures; they eat both plant and animal matter. George ate all of his vegetables, played in the rain, and caught a cold. -KD
