1. A simple sentence contains a single independent clause: one single or compound subject and one single or compound verb, for example: "The dog and cat ran around the house." "Dog and cat" is a compound subject. "Ran" is a single verb. 2. In contrast, a compound sentence contains two independent clauses linked together by a conjunction, for example: "The dog and cat ran around the house, but they didn't break anything." The first independent clause is "The dog and cat ran around the house" and the second independent clause is "they didn't break anything" and these two clauses are linked by the conjunction "but". 3. Lastly, a complex sentence contains at least one independent clause and at least one dependent clause, for example: "The dog and cat ran around the house because they were full of energy." The independent clause is "The dog and cat ran around the house", and the dependent clause is "because they were full of energy." The second clause is "dependent" on the first for full meaning.
'My dog and I' if this is the subject of the sentence or clause; 'My dog and me' if this is the object of the sentence or clause. Examples:My dog and I ran home when the rain started.My neighbor and her dog often walk with my dog and me.

It's a clause that makes a complete sentence all by itself. So... Julie ran outside. "Julie ran outside" is an independent clause. Julie, who is my friend, ran outside. "Who is my friend" isn't a sentence by itself, so it's a dependent clause.

It is a complex sentence because it has one independent clause : the little boy ran faster and a subordinate clause : than the midget. The subordinate clause relies on the independent clause so it's a complex sentence. Hope that's right :D lol
Part of a sentence that makes sense by itself. Here is an example.the italics is the independent clause.The dog ran very far across the beach.
Your mom, your dad, and your dog.
No. "The dog is a domesticated sub-species of the wolf" is a complete sentence, an independent clause. A dependent clause is one that cannot stand on its own as a sentence.
You need a subject and a verb. This is true whether the clause is dependent -"The dog jumped onto the sofa"or independent -"The dog who jumped onto the sofa"
This sentence is a complex sentence because it contains one independent clause ("The officer ran into the house") and one dependent clause ("where the fugitive was hidden"). The dependent clause cannot stand alone as a complete sentence.
An independent clause is a group of words that can stand on their own as a sentence. Something like "Johnny ate the apples." An independent clause has to have the same requirements as a sentence (Subject and verb), and has to be able to stand alone.The reason it isn't the same thing as a sentence is that we discuss independent and dependent clauses as parts of simple, compound, and complex sentences. Therefore, the sentence could be "Johnny ate the apples, which prevented mom from making her famous apple pie." "Johnny ate the apples" is still an independent clause, but it is part of a larger sentence (in this case it is joined to a dependent clause and the sentence is a complex sentence).If the sentence were joined to another independent clause, the sentence would be compound (and yes, you can have compound-complex sentences, which require at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause).AnswerPart of a sentence that makes sense by itself.
