KEYWORD

A CLAUSE is a group of words containing a

subject and a verb with a relationship. A

clause conveys information about what

that subject is doing rather than simply

being a random grouping of words.

Because a clause expresses an action or a

state of being, a clause can often—but not

always—function as a sentence.

CLAUSES

GET TO KNOW

CLAUSES have two forms; they are

Independent and Dependent Clauses.

stand alone = sentence fragment

COMPOUND SENTENCE

A Compound Sentence is a sentence that

joins two simple sentences/independent

clauses together.

Essentially, a compound sentence brings

together individual, related sentences as

one.

HOW TO JOIN THOSE
SENTENCES?

clauses into a compound sentence, you may use

the following:

• Coordinating conjunctions; FANBOYS: For, And,

Nor, But, Or, Yet, and So.

• Comma

• Semicolon
