Introduction
Sentence is an expression in natural language, and often defined to indicate a grammatical unit consisting of one or more words that generally bear minimal syntactic relation to the words that precede or follow it. A sentence can include words grouped meaningfully to express a statement, question, exclamation, request or command.

Introduction

Basic Sentence

Structures

The compound sentence is one of the four basic sentence structures.


Simple Sentence Complex Sentence Compound Sentence Compund Complex Sentence

Introduction
A compound sentence is when you combine each group of a sentences, using the conjunction given. Form a compound subject, a compound predicate, or a compound sentence. Also it is when you put together all three of them together and then it makes a compound sentence. Compound sentences can make writing rich and colorful. While beginning writers generally learn to write simple sentences first, compound sentences provide more detail and make paragraphs more interesting and engaging. When forming compound sentences, it is important to understand the components of a compound sentence and to use the proper punctuation to join clauses.

Session
Compund Sentence
Two Independent Clauses

Coordinators Conjunction (Preceded by a comma)

Compound sentence is sentence that contains at least two independent clauses linked together. It does not require a dependent clause. The main clauses can be separated by a period (.), a period indicates a complete stop. A compound sentence structure shows that two thoughts are connected and of equal importance.

a coordinating conjunction

a colon

a correlative conjunction

The clauses are joined by : a coordinating conjunction : "and", "but", "for", "or", "nor,"yet", or "so" (with or without a comma). a correlative conjunction (with or without a comma).

a semicolon

a semicolon that functions as a conjunction (with or without conjunctive adverbs).

using the colon.

Session
These four important characteristics of compound sentences: A compound sentence is like a set of twins; each is a separate person, yet each is connected to the other with the same biological "make-up." That is, each has a subject, a verb, and words to complete the thought. Although they are joined by a linking word, each sentence of the compound is complete in itself and can stand alone. The two parts of the compound sentence need to be linked correctly, with a comma and then a linking word at the place where one sentence ends and the other begins. (Otherwise you will have a sentence error called a run-on sentence. Run-on sentences are typically compound sentences without the proper punctuation and/or linking word.)

Session
Because there are two complete sentences in a compound sentence, each has equal weight in terms of the ideas being presented. That is, you may want to link sentences into a compound to show that their ideas are equally important. The linking word shows the relationship between the ideas:
and = the 2nd sentence contains the same type of idea but = the 2nd sentence contains an equal but opposite idea or = the 2nd sentence contains an equal choice so = the 2nd sentence contains an equally important outcome or result

Examples
Coordinating Conjunction
My friend invited me to a tea party, but my parents didn't let me go. Do you want to stay here, or would you like to go shopping with me?
Both the moon is full, and the stars are out. Neither my parents nor I heard of my cousins accident. Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them. Dedi was sick; therefore, he didnt come to campus. Arguments are to be avoided: they are always vulgar and often convincing.

Corelative Conjunction

A Semicolon

A Colon

Example for Sentences That Are Not Compound Sentences


When I visit my mother, I eat cookies. * This is NOT a compound sentence because "When I visit my mother" is not an independent clause and a coordinator is not used. I like to fish because fishing is fun. * Although "I like to fish" is an independent clause and "fishing is fun" is an independent clause, this is still not a compound sentence. It is a complex sentence, since none of the seven coordinators are used here.

Only independent clauses joined by one of the above coordinators are compound sentences. When an independent clause and a dependent clause are joined, a complex sentence is formed, which is distinct from a compound sentence.

Conclusion
A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses joined by a coordinator. It is distinct from a complex sentence, which is an independent clause that is joined with a dependent clause. they are joined by a coordinator with a comma preceding it. It does not require a dependent clause.
