its is compound sentence or complex sentence?


Sagot :

Answer:

Complex Sentence

"Paul got in the contest although he got a low score." is a complex sentence.

Explanation:

 Why this IS a Complex Sentence.

  • Complex sentences consist of one dependent clause and one independent clause.
  • independent clause in given sentence: "Paul got in the contest"
  • dependent clause in given sentence: "although he got a low score"
  • These kinds of sentences are linked together by subordinating conjunctions (whenever, while, although, even though, etc.).
  • Examples of compound sentences: Even though Ysa was tired, she still managed to listen to her teacher in class.  and  Raven heated her coffee because it was cold.

❎ Why this IS NOT a Compound Sentence.

  • Compound sentences consist of two independent clauses.
  • These kinds of sentences are linked together by coordinating conjunctions (FANBOYS - for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).
  • Examples of compound sentences: Mika wanted to sleep, but she still needed to finish her homework.  and  Princess decided to film a video, and she posted it on MeTube.
