The document defines and provides examples of different types of sentences: - Simple sentences contain a subject and a verb with a single independent clause. - Compound sentences join two or more independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions. - Complex sentences combine an independent clause with one or more dependent clauses using subordinating conjunctions. - Compound-complex sentences have at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses, making them the most complex sentence structure.

2. WHAT IS A SENTENCE
A set of words that is complete in itself, typically
containing a subject, predicate and consisting of a
main clause and sometimes one or more
subordinate clauses.

3. TYPES OF SENTENCES
• Simple Sentence
• Compound Sentence
• Complex Sentence
• Compound-Complex Sentence

4. SIMPLE SENTENCES
A simple sentence has the most basic elements that
make it a sentence:
• Subject.
• Verb.
• Complete thought.

5. SIMPLE SENTENCES
Simple sentence only have a single Independent
clause.
In other words we can also call independent clause a
simple sentence.

6. COMPOUND SENTENCES
• Two (or more) independent clauses joined by a
coordinating conjunction or semicolon is called
compound sentence.
• So a compound sentence is like two or more
Simple sentences added together.
• A compound sentence does not contain any
dependent clauses.

7. COMPOUND SENTENCES
There are Seven (07) Coordinating conjunctions that
connect two (or more) Independent clause together
to form Compound sentence. These are:
• For
• And
• Nor
• But
• Or
• Yet
• So
Coordinating conjunction

8. For is used to indicate reason and purpose
And is used to join two statements additional comments.
Nor is used to indicate negative thoughts.
But is used to contrast between two statements.
Or is used to show choice between two option.
Yet is used for something that’s not happened. It is often used in
negative terms
So is used for reason for something or expresses conformation

9. COMPOUND SENTENCE
• Note: Even if two Individual clause are connected with
a coordinating conjunction, they can not be called
compound sentence without complementing each
other.

10. COMPLEX SENTENCE
• A complex sentence combines an independent clause
with one or more dependent clauses.
• A complex sentence always has a subordinating
conjunction.

11. COMPLEX SENTENCE
(main clause + conjonction + dependent clause)

12. SUBORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
• An independent clause to a dependent clause. It can be at the
beginning, middle or end of the sentence.
• These are:
After, how, until, although, if, unless, wherever, as, while, when, before, since,
soon, because, that.

13. • Subordinating conjunction are used in a Complex sentence as Time,
Reason, Place, Contrast and for Similarities.
SUBORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS

14. • To connect independent and dependent clauses, you need
subordinating conjunctions like “after,” “while,” or “since.” If the
dependent clause comes first, you will generally need to
separate the clauses with a comma.
