According to the form, it is
classified become 4 types:
Simple Sentence
Compound
Sentence
Compound Complex
SentenceComplex Sentence
SIMPLESENTEN
has one subject and one verb.
Example : I like to study grammar.
is also called an independent clause.
An independent clause ends with a period or
semicolon.
The dog barked.
The wary mouse watched from underneath
an upturned cereal box.
The man walked..
We have breakfast at 06.30 o’clock.
EC
Sentences
Independent clause: only one subject and one verb
I love you.
One verb
One
subject
Compound Sentence
A compound sentence is made up of two or more simple sentences joined by one of the
following:
A comma and one of the FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so)
I like to study grammar, and I love this class.
A semicolon
I like to study grammar; I love this class.
A semicolon and a transitional
I like to study grammar; therefore, I love this class.
The Examples of Compound Senten
The cat was unsuccessful in
his attempt to catch the
mouse, and the mouse was
equally as unlucky in his
attempt to get the cheese.
The dog had watched all of
this, but he had refused to
become involved.
The mouse could wait until
dark, or he could risk a
daylight raid on the pantry.
The cat usually slept during
the day, yet curiosity held
him at the corner of the
kitchen.
Independent
clause
Independent
clause
Two independent clauses joined together
I love you, and
you love me.
Examples of dependent
clauses include the
following:
 Because Mary and Samantha
arrived at the bus station before
noon
 While he waited at the train
station
 After they left on the bus
A complex sentence is an independent
clause joined by one or more
dependent clauses.
A subordinating conjunction begins the
dependent clauses.
A dependent clause that begins a
sentence must be followed by comma.
A dependent clause has a subject and a
verb, but it does not make sense on its
own.
Complex Sentence
Dependent clauses such as those
above cannot stand alone as a sentence,
but they can be added to an independent
clause to form a complex sentence.
Subordinating
Conjunctions
Dependent clauses begin
with subordinating
Conjunctions. Below are some
of the most common
subordinating conjunctions:
Because you love me,
I love you.
Dependent clause
Independent
clause
After
Now that
In order that
Although
As
Because
Before
Even though
If
Since
Though
Unless
Until
When
Whenever
Whereas
Wherever
While
The Examples of
Complex Sentences:
You will pass the exam if you study
hard.
Because you love me, I love you.
Nicky and Fitri went to the movies
after they finished studying.
Note:
- independent
- dependent
A dependent clause joined to an independent
clause. (The dependent clause needs the rest of
the sentence for support.)
Even if
Now that
That
Where
Once
Rather than
As if
Whether
In order
That
So that
Which
Than
In case
As long as
As much as
In as much
At least
A dependent clause
contains a subject and verb. It
begins with a subordinating
conjunction, and thus it does not
express a completed thought. A
dependent clause is also called a
subordinate clause.
Dependent clauses, like
babies, cannot stand alone.
A Tip on Punctuation
Because you love me.
Fragment!
Since dependent clauses are only
part of a sentence, you can never connect
them to another sentence with a
semicolon. Semicolons are only used
between two independent clauses.
• I have loved you for years ; although I
never admitted it.
• I have loved you for years, although I
never admitted it.
No!
OK
Another Examples of Complex
Sentence
 After he gave it some thought, the mouse
decided to wait until later for his trek.
 The cat fell asleep on the warm kitchen
because he was deprived of sleep the night
before.
 When the mouse heard the soft snoring of
his sleeping nemesis, he scurried to the
pantry and grabbed enough food for a
week.
 The dedicated, feline sleuth keeps his
nightly vigil even though the foresighted
mouse will not be venturing out this week.
A compound complex
sentence is the last and most
complicated type of sentence.
It contains at least one
dependent clause and at least
two independent clauses.
Compound Complex
Sentence
Dependent clause
Because we are a family, I
love you, and you love
me.
2 independent clauses
A dependent clause added to two or more independent clauses
Compound Complex
Sentence?
Sentence
Compound Complex
Sentence
A compound-complex
sentence is a sentence that has at
least two independent clauses and
at least one dependent clause.
The same subordinating
conjunctions are used to introduce
the dependent clauses.
The same coordinating
conjunctions (FANBOYS) are used
for joining the independent
clauses.
ExamplesExamplesExamples
Even though it seems the
two were bent on the
other’s destruction, the
cat and mouse were
rather fond of one
another, and neither
wanted the other’s
defeat.
After the two
adversaries had spent
years playing this “cat
and mouse” game,
they were joined by
their children, and the
fun continued.
This game was
begun thousands of
years ago, and it will
continue far into the
future as other cats
and mice revel in
hide-and-seek.
Thank You…
