SENTENCE TYPES

 Simple Sentence

 Compound Sentence

 Complex Sentence

 Compound-Complex Sentence
SIMPLE SENTENCE

 A simple sentence contains a subject and verb.

 It expresses a single complete thought.

 A simple sentence is a single independent clause.


Example :
  I hate him
(Saya benci dia)
 We read the book 
(Kami membaca buku)
  She came late this morning
(Dia datang terlambat pagi tadi)
COMPOUND SENTENCE

 A compound sentence contains two independent clauses.

 Coordinate Conjunctions (for, and, nor, but, or, and yet, so) join these independent

clauses.

 The conjunction used can impact the meaning of the sentence.


Example :
 Maria moves to Yogyakarta for she gets a new job there.

(Maria berpindah ke Yogyakarta karena dia mendapatkan pekerjaan baru disana).


 Andi comes to my birthday party, and he gives me all lot of surprises.

(Andi datang pada pesta ulang tahunku, dan dia memberiku banyak kejutan).
 I do not like chocolate, nor do I like coffee.

(Saya tidak menyukai coklat begitu pula dengan kopi).


 She is not clever, but she is diligent to make notes.

(Dia tidak pintar tetapi dia rajin membuat catatan).


 She must study hard, or she will field this examination.
(Dia harus belajar dengan giat atau dia akan gagal dalah ujian ini).
 I love her, yet she just friend for me.
(Saya mencintainya meskipun begitu dia hanyalah teman untukku)
 Bayu get a bad score, so he will remedial it.
(Bayu mendapat nilai jelek jadi dia akan mengulang nya).
COMPLEX SENTENCE

 A complex sentence is an independent clause joined by one or more dependent clauses.

 A subordinate conjunction begins the dependent clauses.

 A dependent clause that begins a sentence must be followed by comma.

 A dependent clause has a subject and a verb, but it does not make sense on its own.

the independent clauses.
