Penjelasan:

The Types of Sentences

Setiap kalimat harus ada independent clause dan terkadang dependent clause. Independent clause merupakan klausa yang bisa digunakan dan tetap menjadi kalimat yang jelas; dependent clause merupakan klausa yang memerlukan independent clause agar kalimat tersebut jelas. Setiap klausa harus memiliki Subject + Verb + O agar klausa tersebut selesai.

Simple Sentence: kalimat yang hanya memiliki satu independent clause.

Compound Sentence: kalimat yang memiliki dua independent clause; terdapat coordinating conjunction FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) untuk menghubungkan dua klausa tersebut.

Complex Sentence: kalimat yang memiliki satu independent clause dan satu atau lebih dependent clause; terdapat subordinating conjunction (while, before, after, that, when, dan lainnya) untuk menghubungkan clausa tersebut.

Compound-Complex Sentence: kalimat yang memiliki dua independent clause dan satu atau lebih dependent clause; terdapat coordinating dan subordinating conjunction pada kalimatnya.
