Modelling for Students
Let the pupils read the following examples
a. Study hard so that you will pass the exam
b. She succeeded although she encountered many problems.
•A complex sentence is composed of one independent clause and one or two
dependent clauses.
•An independent clause is a simple sentence by itself. It gives a complete
meaning. It can stand alone.
•A dependent clause does not give a complete thought. It cannot stand
alone. It depends on an independent clause to complete its meaning.
Example: I love you because you love me, too.
I love you is an independent clause. It gives a complete thought.
because you love me, too is the dependent clause. It doesn’t
make sense. Because you love me, too is incomplete in
thought.
