4. WritingComplex Sentences-Lets Review

5. #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.

6. One subject One verb Simple sentence Ilove you. Independent clause: only one subject and one verb

7. #2: 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 • 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.

8. Independent clause Independent clause Compound sentence I love you, and you love me. Two independent clauses joined together

9. #3: Complex Sentence • A complex sentence is a simple sentence (independentclause) to which a part of a sentence (dependentclause) has been added. • Because I like to study grammar, I love this class. • I love this class because I like to study grammar.

10. Complex Sentences Two or more clauses joined with a subordinating conjunction. If you begin a sentence with a subordinating conjunction, there MUST be a comma after the first clause. Unless you want trouble, you should stop. You should stop because I’m getting mad.

11. FANBOYS… • Coordinating conjunctions, also called coordinators, are conjunctions that join, or coordinate, two or more items (such as words, main clauses, or sentences) of equal syntactic importance. In English, the mnemonic acronym FANBOYS can be used to remember the coordinators for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.

12. Coordinating Conjunctions F.A.N.B.O.Y.S. For And Nor But Or Yet So

13. Dependent clause Independent clause Complex sentence Because you love me, I love you. A dependent clause joined to an independent clause. (The dependent clause needs the rest of the sentence for support.)

14. Fragment! Dependent clause Because you love me. 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.

15. No! OK 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.

16. Common Subordinating (Dependent) Conjunctions

17. #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.

18. Compound-Complex Sentences Has an independentclause and at least two dependentclauses, one of which is joined with a coordinating conjunction and one with a subordinating conjunction. Examples Because I paid attention, I got an A on the test and I was so happy. I went home because it was getting late, but I had to wait on the porch until my mom got home anyway.

19. Dependent clause 2 independent clauses Compound complex sentence Because we are a family,I love you, and you love me. A dependent clause added to two or more independent clauses

20. Every sentence in English fits into one of these four categories, but remember that a compound-complex sentence has two or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.

21. In these examples, underline the dependent clause and put parentheses around the independent clause. 1. When I grow up, I want to be a ballerina, and my mom is proud of me. 2. I will get to watch television, but first, I have to clean up the dishes after we finish eating. 3. We won the game, but my uniform was muddy because it rained the entire time. 4. After our trip to the beach, school started back, and I was excited to see my friends. 5. When it’s hot, the sun is shining through the clouds, so I think that we can go swimming.
