Types of Sentences

1. Simple2. Compound3. Complex4. Compound-complex

Page 4: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

#1: Simple Sentence A simple sentence has one

subject and one verb I like to study grammar.

A simple sentence is also called an independent clause.

An independent clause ends with a period or semicolon.

Page 5: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

Simple Sentences Examples:

Carol’s sweater is red.You and Alex need to be quiet.

Ms. Bennett did a cartwheel and a backflip.

Page 6: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

#2: Compound Sentence

A compound sentence is made up of two or more simple sentences joined by one of the following:

A comma and a coordinating conjunction I like to study grammar, and I love this class.

A semicolon I like to study grammar; I love this class.

A semicolon and an adverbial conjunction I like to study grammar; therefore, I love this

class.

Page 7: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

Coordinating Conjunctions

Coordinating Conjunctions are used to join together two independent clauses.

Examples: For And Nor But Or Yet So

Page 8: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

Two independent clauses joined together

I love you, and you love me.

Semicolons

“If the relation between the ideas expressed in the main clauses is very close and obvious without a conjunction, you can separate the clauses with a semicolon” (Little, Brown Handbook, 9th Edition, p. 361).

#3: Complex Sentence#3: Complex Sentence A complex sentence is a simple

sentence (independent clause) to which a part of a sentence (dependent clause) has been added. Because I like to study grammar, I

love this class. I love this class because I like to

study grammar.

Page 14: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

A dependent clause joined to an independent clause. (The dependent clause needs the

rest of the sentence for support.)

Because you love me, I love you.

Dependent clause

Independent clause

Page 15: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

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.

Because you love me.

Fragment!

Page 16: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

A Tip on Punctuation 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.OK

No!

#4: Compound/Complex Sentence

#4: Compound/Complex Sentence 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.

Page 20: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

A dependent clause added to two or more independent clauses

Because we are a family, I love you, and you love me.

2 independent clauses

Compound Complex Sentences

Example: Laura forgot her friend’s

birthday, so she sent her a card when she finally remembered.

Page 22: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

Simple Compound

Complex Compound/complex

Since every sentence in English fits into one of these four categories,

Page 23: 1 a class 2 four types of sentences

Think You’ve Got It? 1 independent clause = simple sentence

Don’t’ forget: These can have compound subjects and predicates!

2 independent clauses = compound sentence

1 or more dependent clause + 1 independent clause = complex sentence

2 or more independent clauses + 1 or more dep. clause

= compound complex sentence

The Essay Question Write an essay arguing for the supplies you have chosen

to take with you into the wild. Present the issue to readers, and develop an argument for the purpose of confirming, challenging, or changing your readers’ views on which supplies are the most important for survival.

Your final essay should be around 500 words. This will be around four pages, hand written. This, of course, is an estimate. Handwriting varies greatly. Between three and six pages will likely be the norm for this essay.

Good Luck! May the odds be ever in your favor
