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.
Compound 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
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.
In order to be "compound," a sentence must have more than one independent clause. So a sentence with 2 or more independent clauses is a compound sentence.
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 has 2 or more coordinate independent clauses. A complex sentence is made from a dependent and independent clauses joined together.
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.
As in sentence types? A complex sentence is one that has one or more dependent clauses and an independent clause. The dependent clause can be located anywhere in the sentence. A compound sentence is one that contains two or more independent clauses.
A compound sentence is one that contains at least two independent clauses and is typically joined by a conjunction. An independent clause contains a subject and predicate and forms a complete thought.Example: Mary went to the park, and David went to the store.A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. Unlike independent clauses, dependent clauses cannot stand alone as complete sentences.Example: Because it's raining today, Mary will not be going to the park.
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.
"I'm sitting at my computer, with a box of tissues and a cat in my lap." (^^independent clause ^^) (^^dependent clause^^) It's an independent clause (a sentence that can stand alone) and one or more supporting sentences or sentences with additional detail (dependent clauses).
