SIMPLE

COMPLEX
 SIMPLE SENTENCE
A simple sentence is made up of one complete
subject and one complete predicate. It can be short or
long.

The national motto, Bhineka Tunggal Ika, is an old

Sanskrit expression.
 COMPOUND SENTENCE
A compound sentence is made of two or more independent clause (simple sentences).
These independent clauses are joined by a comma and a conjunction.

Yuril invited me to the party, and I said yes.

Adi likes Gangnam style, but Adib likes Jaipong.

Conjunctions that join independent clauses are called coordinating conjunctions

(coordinators). The coordinators are as follows: for, and nor, but, or, yet, so. But the three
that used most often are and, or, but.
 COMPLEX SENTENCES
A complex sentence contains a independent clause and joined by one or more
dependent clauses. A complex sentence always has a subordinator ( a
subordinating conjunction) such as because, since, after, although, or when or a
relative pronoun such as that, who or, which.
