S imple S entence
A simple sentence is one ith only one sub ect and one predicate or one ith only one finite verb. or e amples
• She speaks loudly.
• My brother woke up early in the morning.
• We won the match.
C omplex S entence
A complex sentence is one that contains at least one independent clause and one dependent clause. Complex sentences
are easy to identify because they frequently use subordinating conjunctions to connect clauses, such as because, since,
or until. For examples:
• Many people enjoyed the movie; however, Rohit did not.
• He is happy since he retired.
• When my aunt visits, the whole family has fun.
• Although she ran very fast, she did not catch the bus.
C ompound S entence
A compound sentence is one that contains at least two independent clauses linked together by a comma, semicolon, or
conjunction. An independent clause contains both a subject and verb and constitutes a complete notion. For example:
• Katniss in ‘The Hunger Games’ survived in the forest as she was an excellent archer.
• She wants to lose weight, yet she eats chocolates daily.
• He recently lost his mother, so he is feeling sad.
