Normally the phrase would be "independent from", and list the object. The phrase "independent of" has limited use compared to the adverb form "independently of".
Example : "The city's funds were independent fromthose of the county."
Example : "The voltage from a carbon battery is independent of it's size."
A group of words that contains a subject and a verb and can stand alone as a complete sentence is called an independent clause. Independent clauses express a complete thought and can function on their own. For example, "She enjoys reading." is an independent clause.
The difference between a compound sentence and a complex sentence is that a compound sentence has two independent clauses, connected by a Coordinator. A complex sentence on contains one independent clause. A complex sentence also always contains a subordinator.
Compound sentence
A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The independent clause can stand alone as a complete sentence, while the dependent clause relies on the independent clause to make sense.
A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses, and no dependent (or subordinate) clause(s). The independent clauses that make up a compound sentence may be connected with a coordinating conjunction, conjunctive adverb, or semicolon.
A sentence that contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction.
Simple Sentence .
A compound sentence contains multiple independent clauses, each of which has its own predicate. Therefore, the number of predicates in a compound sentence is equal to the number of independent clauses it contains. For example, in the sentence "I went to the store, and she stayed home," there are two independent clauses and thus two predicates.
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 compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses that are joined by a coordinating conjunction (such as "and," "but," or "or") or a semicolon. Each independent clause can stand alone as a complete sentence. For example, "I wanted to go for a walk, but it started to rain."
A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses connected by a conjunction.
This is a simple sentence:Your favorite meal (subject) is (predicate) breakfast (object).It contains a single independent clause, unlike a compound sentence that contains two or more independent clauses joined by a coordinator. Coordinators are the following words:forandnorbutoryetso.
