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.
a complete subject and a complete predicate
There are two kinds of clauses and three types of clauses in the English language. The two kinds are independent and dependent. An independent clause consists of a subject and a predicate that represent a complete thought. Dependent clauses depend on independent clauses to make complete sense. the three dependent clauses are noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses.
A sentence consisting of multiple clauses joined by coordinating conjunctions and/or punctuation.
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.
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.

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
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
A conjunction is used to link clauses in a sentence. Common examples include "and," "but," "or," and "because."

Actually, a subordinating conjunction is a word that joins a dependent clause to an independent clause. It shows the relationship between the two clauses and makes the dependent clause subordinate to the independent clause.
A sentence consisting of multiple clauses joined by coordinating conjunctions and/or punctuation.
A subordinating conjunction is used to connect independent and dependent clauses together. These conjunctions show the relationship between the clauses, such as cause and effect or time sequence. Examples include "because," "although," and "when."
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.
