(Ferris Bueller's Day Off)
(Note: "Life moves pretty fast" and "you could miss it" are independent clauses. "If you don't stop and look around once in awhile" is an adverb clause.)
An independent clause is a sentence that can stand on its own.
Example sentence - You must read the contract completely in order to find the clause that applies.
A clause is a specific part of a legal document. An example sentence would be: She was advised to read that clause very closely.
An example of a dependent clause using "who" is: "who lives next door." This clause cannot stand alone as a complete sentence because it relies on the rest of the sentence for context and meaning.
A complex sentence is where u use a main clause and a subordinate clause example It was raining outside the trampoline was getting wer
Can't you do a better question
Sit where 2 can see you
A compound sentence has two independent clauses (groups of words that can stand alone as a sentence) joined by a conjunction such as "and" or "but". For example: "I am happy and she is sad." A complex sentence is formed by one dependent clause and one independent clause. A dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and predicate, but that cannot stand alone to form a sentence. An example of a dependent clause would be "When I get older" and a complex sentence would be "I will drive cars when i get older.
A main clause = it is independent, i.e. it does not depend on any other sentence. A subordinate clause = a sentence depending on/subordinated to a another sentence, either a main clause or another subordinate clause. (you ask the main clause a question and you answer with the subordinate). e.g. "Can you tell me/ (the main clause) when the book was written?" ( the subordinate clause = a Direct Object). or "This is the book/ that I told you about". (the second clause is an Attributive or a Relative Clause). or If she had know this, / she wouldn't have trusted him." (the first sentence is an If Clause or a Conditional).
A complex sentence has an independent clause which is joined to a dependent clause. An example of this is "Mary went to the store before she made dinner."
Its a set of words that can't stand alone and be a complete sentence. Here's an example. This is an independent clause: I wrote. Here is the dependednt clause: to her. Together they form: I wrote to her.
"building a building' is not a sentence, it's a sentence fragment. Completing a sentence by adding a subject and auxiliary verb: He is building a building. Example as a noun clause as the sentence subject: Building a building is expensive. Example as a noun clause as the object of a preposition: He plans on building a building.
