1 Reference: Creating Compound and complex sentences (Ch5 and 6) Coordinate Conjunctions (FANBOYS) To Add information Show choice or contrast/compare Show result or reason, and, but, for, yet, so, nor, or So that Example: I went to the store. The clerk helped me pick out a suit. (CD, And) I went to the store, and the clerk helped me pick out a suit. Example: The suit was a great color. I need to get it tailored. (CD, but) The suit was a great color, but I need to get it tailored. Example: The pants were too big. I need to get them taken in. (CD, so) The pants were too big, so I need to get them taken in. Conjunctive (connecting) adverbs: Along with FANBOYS, can make CD (compound) sentences! Punct. Before Conjunctive Adverb After ; accordingly, ; also, ; besides, ; consequently, ; furthermore, ; hence, ; however, ; likewise, ; moreover, ; nevertheless, ; otherwise, ; so, ; then, ; thus, ; therefore, Examples: SNV + Conjunction + SNV = CD Sentence I love apples; accordingly, I eat one every day. Apples are delicious; also, they are high in fiber! Few fruits besides apples are as healthy! Eating apples every day is a healthy habit; consequently, I have had a clean health record. Oranges are delicious; furthermore, they have lots of vitamin C. Oranges are messy; hence, I only eat them at home. I love strawberries too; however, they re only good during the summer months. Strawberries are also high in vitamin C; likewise, they have a pretty red color. Sometimes, I m not in the mood for fruit; moreover, I actually dislike things when they are too sweet. Nevertheless, I still love fruits; otherwise, I d eat candy when I want something sweet. I crave sweet things very rarely; so, I have to run to the store to avoid tempting candy. I go to the store; then, I pick out the freshest fruit I can find. I don t like fruit that isn t in season; thus, I only buy the best fruit. The best fruit tends to be organic; therefore, I prefer shopping at Sprouts or Whole foods.
2 CD sentence Practice: Use the labels to put a slash between the two thoughts. Label it a run on; then, fix the sentence using the punctuation and conjunction/conjunctive adverb provided. 1) I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. (CD; however,) a. 2) I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. (CD; but,) a. 3) I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. (CD ;) a. Comma Splices and Run-ONs: A Run-on is two complete sentences that are joined together but missing proper punctuation and conjunctions. Ex: Incorrect: I looked for my keys but couldn t find them. (missing comma) Correct: I looked for my keys couldn t find them. Incorrect: I looked for my keys however I couldn t find them (missing semi colon and comma) Correct: I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. Incorrect: I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. (missing semi colon) Correct: I looked for my keys I couldn t find them. Comma Splice: Like a run-on, but missing conjunction: Incorrect: I looked for my keys, I couldn t find them. (add an appropriate conjunction Correct: I looked for my keys I couldn t find them.
