A semicolon (;)
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.
A compound sentence is formed by joining two or more independent clauses with a semicolon, a comma, and an independent marker.
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.
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.
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 has 2 or more coordinate independent clauses. A complex sentence is made from a dependent and independent clauses joined together.
You join 2 independent clauses together with a conjunction.
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.
A compound sentence has at least two independent clauses but no subordinate clauses (which are only in complex or compound-complex sentences).
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
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.
compound sentence
Identify two independent clauses that can stand alone as complete sentences. Connect the two independent clauses using a coordinating conjunction (and, but, or, so, for, yet, nor) or a semicolon. Ensure that the meaning and flow of the two independent clauses work well together in the compound sentence.
A compound sentence is formed by joining two or more independent clauses with a semicolon, a comma, and an independent marker.
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.
