Simple, Compound, Complex Sentences

A simple sentence contains a subject and a verb and expresses a complete thought. Example: 'The dog barks.'

A compound sentence consists of two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. Example: 'I wanted to go for a walk, but it started to rain.'

A complex sentence contains an independent clause and at least one subordinate clause. Example: 'Although it was raining, we went for a walk.'

A subordinate clause is a group of words that has a subject and a verb but does not express a complete thought. Example: 'Because I was tired.'

A conjunction is a word that connects clauses or sentences. Examples include 'and', 'but', and 'or'.
