Module 5 lesson 5.1
There are two types of clauses in English: independent clauses and dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a simple sentence because it contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. A dependent clause does not express a complete thought on its own and must be attached to an independent clause; it begins with a subordinating conjunction like "because", "when", or "after". Together, the independent and dependent clauses form a complex sentence expressing a full idea. Common time-related subordinating conjunctions that introduce dependent clauses include after, as soon as, before, until, when, whenever, and while.

Module 5 lesson 5.1
This document discusses independent and dependent clauses. It defines an independent clause as having one subject-verb pair and expressing a complete thought, essentially being another name for a simple sentence. A dependent clause is defined as an independent clause with a subordinating word like "because" or "when" added to the beginning, making it unable to stand alone as a complete thought and requiring it to be joined to an independent clause. Several examples of independent and dependent clauses are provided. The document also discusses subordinating conjunctions that can introduce dependent clauses and lists some common time-related subordinating conjunctions like "after", "before", and "when".
Types of sentences
This document discusses different types of sentences: simple sentences contain one independent clause; compound sentences contain two independent clauses joined by a coordinator; complex sentences contain one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses; compound-complex sentences contain two or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses. Examples are provided for each sentence type to illustrate their structures.

Conjunctions
Conjunctions are words that link words, phrases, clauses and sentences. There are different types of conjunctions including coordinating conjunctions which join similar elements like subjects and verbs. Correlative conjunctions always come in pairs and join similar elements. Subordinating conjunctions are important for creating subordinating clauses and place the adverbial clause before or after the main clause. Proper use of conjunctions is important for joining elements in a sentence.

Finite vs non finite clause
This document discusses the differences between finite and non-finite clauses. Finite clauses contain subjects and finite verbs that indicate person, number, and tense. They can stand alone as independent clauses or depend on other clauses. Non-finite clauses do not indicate tense and cannot stand alone; they take different verb forms like the infinitive, -ing, or -ed participle. Non-finite clauses are dependent and may or may not contain subjects. Examples of both finite and non-finite clauses are provided.
Adverbials
The document discusses adverbs - words that modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs by expressing manner, place, time, degree, certainty, or frequency. It provides examples of different types of adverbs like adverbs of time, place, manner, frequency, focusing adverbs, adverbs of probability, and adverbs of degree. It also discusses how adverbs are formed and used in sentences, including to ask questions, make comparisons, affirm or deny statements. The final section provides practice identifying the structure and type of different adverbial phrases.
The Infinitive And The –Ing Form
The document summarizes the different uses of the infinitive and -ing form of verbs in English. It discusses how infinitives and -ings can be used as subjects, objects, complements, after certain verbs and prepositions, and how their meaning can change depending on the context.
Inversion
The document discusses inversion in English grammar. Inversion means putting the verb before the subject. It is commonly used in questions by moving the verb in front of the subject. There are also some other situations where inversion is used, including with negative adverb phrases at the beginning of sentences to add emphasis, in conditional sentences using "had" or "were", after adverbial phrases of place, and after expressions like "so...that". Inversion changes the typical subject-verb word order in a sentence for specific grammatical purposes or effects.
02 articles
The document provides information on articles (a/an, the) in English. It explains that a/an and an are forms of the indefinite article, used before consonant and vowel sounds respectively. The definite article "the" is used when the speaker and listener have a shared understanding of the noun, while the indefinite article is used when the reference is vague or nonspecific. Examples are given to illustrate the proper uses of definite and indefinite articles.
Writing complex sentences
The document discusses the four types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. A simple sentence contains one subject and one verb. A compound sentence joins two independent clauses with a FANBOYS conjunction. A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one dependent clause. A compound-complex sentence contains at least one dependent clause and at least two independent clauses. The document provides examples and tips for properly structuring each sentence type and using punctuation correctly.
Sentence Variety
Sentence variety is the use of different sentence structures like simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences to create a clearer, more cohesive writing style. Using a variety of sentence types helps with transitions, readability, and strengthening arguments. The document provides examples and exercises to illustrate the different sentence structures.
Inversions In English
Inversion refers to an irregular verb placement form where the question form takes the place of the standard positive sentence structure. Some examples of inversion include using "not only do I enjoy classical music" instead of "I not only enjoy classical music". Inversion can also occur with negative adverbials like "never", "rarely", and expressions like "only then", "only after", "little", "so", "such", and in conditional forms by dropping "if" and using the inverted form instead.
Inversions
This document discusses various types of inversion in English grammar:
1) Question inversion, which changes the word order in questions.
2) Subject-auxiliary inversion, which changes the normal subject-verb word order, as in "Along the street came a strange individual."
3) Inversion after negative adverbials, which occurs when negative time expressions like "never" are at the beginning of a clause for emphasis.
4) Inversion can also follow "so" or "such" when used with the verb "be", or after conjunctions like "as", "so", "neither", and "nor" to echo statements.
Sentence Structure Ppt
The document discusses varying sentence structure to make writing more interesting. It provides examples of simple sentences with one clause, compound sentences with two independent clauses joined with coordinating conjunctions or semicolons, and complex sentences with one independent and one dependent clause. The second paragraph is more effective because it uses a variety of sentence structures including compound and complex sentences rather than just simple sentences.
Adverbial clauses; adverbial clauses of time
This document discusses various types of adverbial clauses of time in English. It describes temporal subordinators like when, whenever, while, as, as long as, till/until, since, after, and before and how they introduce adverbial clauses that indicate the time of the situation in the main clause. It also discusses non-finite adverbial clauses of time introduced by gerunds, present and past participles, and perfect participles, and the use of when and while with participial clauses.
Inversion
The document discusses verb inversion in English, which is when the subject and verb switch places in a sentence, especially in questions. It explains that inversion occurs with auxiliary verbs in questions and with certain adverbs or phrases at the start of sentences, like "seldom" or "only then." Inversion also follows expressions like "not until" or is used in conditionals with "had" or "were."
EAP 1002 Inversion PowerPoint Presentation
This PPT presentation will analyze what are inversion statements and how to produce them. You will be asked at the end of the slides to create inversion statements.
5th group ( dependent and independent clause )
This document discusses dependent and independent clauses. It defines a dependent clause as a group of words with a subject and verb but not expressing a complete thought on its own. Dependent clauses often begin with words like "when", "because", or "until". An independent clause can stand alone as it expresses a complete thought with a subject and verb. The document provides examples of dependent and independent clauses and discusses how they can be used to form simple, compound, and complex sentences.
Inversion
Inversion is used in certain grammatical structures in English including questions, sentences beginning with negative time expressions or phrases containing "no/not", and expressions like "only after" or "only if" at the start of a sentence. It can also be used with words like "so" and "neither" to show agreement, after adjectives like "so strange" or "such", and in certain conditional sentences by dropping "if" and using an inverted form. When inversion is used, the verb comes before the subject.
Treatment1
The document discusses the key components of sentences in the English language. It begins by defining the basic units of phrases and clauses. It then explains the different types of sentences: simple sentences contain one independent clause, compound sentences join two independent clauses, complex sentences contain one independent clause and one dependent clause, and compound-complex sentences contain at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause. The document provides examples for each sentence type and discusses the punctuation and conjunctions used to join the clauses.
There are several types of adverb
The document discusses different types of adverbs including manner, place, time, frequency, and degree. It provides examples of how each type of adverb is typically used in a sentence including common placement after verbs, objects, or at the beginning or end of sentences. It also notes exceptions and special cases for some adverbs like 'yet', 'still', and frequency adverbs placement with verbs like 'to be' and 'used to'.

- Sentences can be simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex depending on the number and types of clauses.
- Clauses are either independent or dependent based on whether they express a complete thought on their own.
Concept of sent&clause
There are four basic types of sentences in English: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. A simple sentence contains one independent clause. A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses joined with a coordinating conjunction. A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent/subordinate clause. A compound-complex sentence contains at least three clauses, with two independent clauses and one dependent clause. Clauses can be adjective, adverb, or noun clauses depending on their function. Participial phrases can also act as reduced clauses.
Phrases, clauses, and sentences

This document provides information about different types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. It defines what constitutes each type of sentence based on the number of independent and dependent clauses. For simple sentences, it notes they contain one independent clause. Compound sentences contain two or more independent clauses joined by coordinating conjunctions. Complex sentences have one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Compound-complex sentences contain at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses. Examples are given for each sentence type to illustrate their structures. Transitional words and phrases to connect sentences are also discussed.
Adverbs
This document defines and provides examples of different types of adverbs in English including adverbs of manner, time, and place. It explains that adverbs usually modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. Adverbs of manner describe how an action is performed and usually follow the verb. Adverbs of time indicate when, how often, or for how long something occurred and have standard sentence positions. Adverbs of place specify location and can indicate movement. The document also discusses forming adverbs from adjectives and comparative and superlative adverb forms.
Clauses
The document discusses clauses and their two types: independent and dependent clauses. Independent clauses can stand alone as a complete sentence since they have a subject and verb and express a complete thought. Dependent clauses also have a subject and verb but do not express a complete thought on their own and need to be connected to an independent clause. Dependent clauses often begin with dependent markers like "after", "although", "because", etc. and cannot stand alone as sentences but must be joined with an independent clause.

There are two kinds of clauses: independent clauses, which can stand alone as a complete sentence with a subject and verb, and dependent clauses, which need to be connected to an independent clause to express a complete thought. Dependent clauses often begin with dependent markers like "after", "although", or "if" and cannot stand alone as a sentence. The difference between independent and dependent clauses is demonstrated through examples.

Module 5 lesson 5.2
- 1. Remember that in English there are four types of sentences. You already learned about simple and compound sentences. Now that you know about dependent and independent clauses, let’s learn about complex sentences. Module 5 Complex Sentences
- 2. COMPLEX SENTENCES A COMPLEX SENTENCE has one independent clause and one (or more) dependent clauses. Examples: INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE I go to university after I have breakfast. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE We didn’t go to the park because it rained. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE I listen to music while I work.
- 3. When the dependent clause begins with an adverb subordinator (after, as soon as, before, until, when, whenever, while), the clause can usually be in any order. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE We ran for shelter as soon as it started to rain. DEPENDENT CLAUSE INDEPENDENT CLAUSE As soon as it started to rain, we ran for shelter. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE I listen to music while I work. DEPENDENT CLAUSE INDEPENDENT CLAUSE While I work, I listen to music.
- 4. If the independent clause is first, don’t use a comma. If the dependent clause is first, put a comma after it. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE We ran for shelter as soon as it started to rain. DEPENDENT CLAUSE INDEPENDENT CLAUSE As soon as it started to rain, we ran for shelter. INDEPENDENT CLAUSE DEPENDENT CLAUSE I listen to music while I work. DEPENDENT CLAUSE INDEPENDENT CLAUSE While I work, I listen to music. Information taken from: Hogue, A. (2008).
