The document discusses different types of conjunctions and how they are used. There are two main types: coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions join equal grammatical structures like words, phrases, and clauses. They include FANBOYS conjunctions like for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. Correlative conjunctions join items in a parallel structure and include pairs like either/or and neither/nor. The document also covers punctuation rules for using coordinating conjunctions in sentences and series.
The document discusses conditionals in English grammar. It explains the structure and use of zero conditionals and first conditionals. Zero conditionals use the simple present tense to describe general truths and things that always happen under certain conditions, such as "Water boils if you heat it to 100 degrees." First conditionals use different verb tenses to talk about possibilities in the present or future, such as "If it's sunny, we'll go to the park." The document provides examples and practice exercises to illustrate the use of these conditional structures.
The document discusses well-formed arguments and the components that make an argument valid, cogent, or ill-formed. It provides examples of different types of arguments and explains that an argument is well-formed if the conclusion is supported by the premises, valid if the premises cannot be true and conclusion false, and cogent if the conclusion is probable if premises are true. Truth of premises alone does not determine if an argument is good. Form must also be considered.
This document provides a lesson on possessive nouns. It defines possessive nouns as nouns that show ownership of another person, place or thing in a sentence. Examples are provided such as "the airplane's engine" where the airplane owns the engine. The document then provides multiple choice questions for students to practice identifying possessive nouns in sentences by selecting the correct possessive form of a noun to fill in blanks.
This document defines and provides examples of different types of clauses, including main/independent clauses which can stand alone as sentences, and subordinate/dependent clauses which cannot stand alone and need to be attached to an independent clause. It discusses noun clauses, adjective clauses, adverb clauses, complement clauses, and embedded clauses. Noun clauses function as subjects, objects, or objects of prepositions. Adjective clauses modify nouns. Adverb clauses modify verbs and provide information like manner, place, time, reason, purpose, result, comparison, or condition. Complement clauses are arguments of verbs, nouns, adjectives or prepositions. Embedded clauses are clauses placed inside other clauses.
This document provides 8 basic rules for using commas in sentences: 1) use a comma before a conjunction joining two independent clauses; 2) use a comma after introductory phrases or dependent clauses; 3) use commas to separate items in a series; 4) use commas before and after non-essential elements; 5) use commas between coordinate adjectives of equal importance; 6) use commas to separate elements of dates and places; 7) use a comma before a direct quotation; 8) use commas before and after interrupting words or phrases. For each rule, examples are provided and the reader is asked to write their own example sentence. The document concludes with information on a quiz and works cited.

Simple, compound, and complex sentences inmsgilmore
The document discusses four types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. A simple sentence contains one independent clause. A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. A compound-complex sentence contains at least two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. Examples of each type are provided.
Conjunctions are words that connect sentences, clauses, or words. There are three main types of conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions connect two independent clauses; correlating conjunctions connect two equal phrases; and subordinating conjunctions introduce a dependent clause. Coordinating conjunctions include FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). Subordinating conjunctions show one clause is subordinate to the other clause. Conjunctive adverbs introduce independent clauses and transition between sentences or clauses. Proper use of conjunctions is important for clear communication.
The document discusses the three main types of sentences: simple sentences containing one subject and verb, compound sentences containing two or more independent clauses joined with a conjunction, and complex sentences containing one independent clause and at least one dependent clause.

It explains that fragments lack a subject and verb, while run-on sentences and comma splices join two independent clauses without correct punctuation. The document offers ways to fix each issue, such as adding subjects or verbs to fragments, and using coordinators, subordinators, semicolons or periods between independent clauses for run-on sentences. Activities provide practice identifying and correcting these sentence problems.

An independent clause has both a subject and a verb. The document also notes that a comma should be used after an introductory phrase to indicate the main clause is beginning. Examples are provided to demonstrate testing if a clause is independent and the proper use of commas in different sentence structures.

Sentences are also classified by their purpose, including declarative, interrogative, exclamatory, and imperative sentences. Mastering these fundamentals can enhance one's ability to speak English proficiently.

- A clause is a group of words that contains both a subject and a verb/predicate. A clause may be able to stand alone as a sentence.
- There are two main types of clauses: independent clauses and subordinate/dependent clauses. Independent clauses can stand alone as sentences, while subordinate clauses cannot.
- Relative clauses are a type of subordinate clause that begin with relative pronouns like who, which, that. They serve as adjectives to modify nouns.
