3 Types of Sentences (according to Structure) A sentence: is a grammatical unit consisting of a set or sets of subject and predicate expresses a complete thought begins with a capital letter ends either with a period, a question mark or an exclamation point may be composed of a word or a group of words arranged in a coherent and unified pattern
4 Types of Sentences (according to Structure) Simple Compound Complex Compound Complex
5 Types of Sentences: Simple Simple sentence is a sentence that contains one independent clause having one set of subject and predicate that is simple or compound. Examples: o Our avocado tree yields a lot of fruit. (One set of simple subject and predicate) o Our avocado and calamansi trees yield a lot of fruits. (one set of compound subject and simple predicate)
6 Types of Sentences: Simple Simple sentence is a sentence that contains one independent clause having one set of subject and predicate that is simple or compound. Examples: o Our avocado tree yields a lot of fruit. (One set of simple subject and predicate) o Our avocado and calamansi trees yield a lot of fruits. (one set of compound subject and simple predicate)
7 Types of Sentences: Compound A compound sentence is a sentence made up of at least two independent clauses that are connected either by the following: o coordinating conjunction ( for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so =fanboys) o correlative conjunction ( both and, either or, not only but also, etc. pairs) o conjunctive adverb ( accordingly, besides, hence, however, moreover, therefore, etc) o semicolon that serves as a conjunction
8 Types of Sentences: Compound The two independent clauses joined by coordinating conjunction may have a comma between the first independent clause and the coordinating conjunction. The use is optional.
9 Types of Sentences: Compound Examples: Sam likes to watch horror movies, but his sister detests them. (two independent clauses joined by coordinating conjunction) Not only does Nelly design clothes but she also exports her creations to ASEAN countries. Two independent clauses joined by correlative conjunctions.
10 Types of Sentences: Compound Jeremy forgot to bring his calculator; consequently, he had a hard time during his Math quiz. (two independent clauses joined by conjunctive adverbs.) Take note that a semicolon (;) separates the first independent clause from the conjunctive adverb and a comma (,) separates the conjunctive adverb from the second independent clause.
11 Types of Sentences: Compound o The sun is shining brightly; the sea is a beckoning blue green, and I am all set to enjoy my summer holiday. (two closely related clauses are joined by semicolon) o Note that in constructing compound sentences, the conjunctive adverb, unless absolutely necessary to the context of the sentence, can be dropped. Only the semicolon will remain to signal compound sentence.
12 Types of Sentences: Compound Using punctuation marks Colon (:) Apostrophe ( ) used to mean note what follows shows belonging or indicates the omission of letters in a word Semicolon (;) used to link independent clauses
13 Types of Sentences: Complex A complex sentence is a sentence having one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. - A dependent clause is a clause that contains a set or sets of subject and predicate but it cannot stand alone. It is usually introduced by subordinating conjunctions such as: after, although, as, because, even if, in as much as, in order that, provided, rather than, since, so that, supposing, though, etc.
14 Types of Sentences: Complex Because subordinating conjunctions are used to introduce dependent clauses, these clauses are also known as subordinate clause. Another group of words used to introduce dependent clauses are the relative pronouns. Relative pronouns include: who, whose, whom, which, when, where, why, that and how.
15 Types of Sentences: Complex Examples: o The sun still shines (although it is raining.) independent clause (IC) Dependent clause (DC) o (When the cat is away), the mice will play. o DC (relative clause when) (As the candidates enter the Garcia Hall), DC (subordinate clause-as) the onlookers are already picking (who is IC likely to win the title.) DC ( relative clause -who) IC
16 Types of Sentences: Complex o We will repair your bag (while you wait.) IC DC (subordinate clause- while) o Korina discovered (that her jewelry were IC DC (relative clause that) missing) (when she opened her jewelry box.) DC (relative clause when) o Please don t open the door (until you see IC that it is your father. DC (relative clause that) DC (subordinate clause-until)
17 Types of Sentences: Compound Complex A compound complex sentence is a sentence of at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses. Examples: o It is early in the morning, but the beachcombers already throng the beach of Boracay (while some fellows are doing wind surfing.)
18 Types of Sentences: Compound Complex o Michael has extra tickets to the cinema, so he invites James to go with him (because he wants his company) (while he enjoys the film.) o The children know (that they have to behave themselves) (while their parents entertain) and the guests admire them for their manner and behavior.
19 Types of Sentences: Compound Complex Take note that the subordinating conjunction is included in the identification of the clause while the coordinating conjunction is excluded.
