How does one write a compound complex sentence?
Why is it important to know whether a sentence is simple, compound, complex, or compound complex?
Basic Rule.
The basic rule states that a singular subject takes a singular verb, while a plural subject takes a plural verb.
Rule 1. Two singular subjects connected by or or nor require a singular verb.
Example: My aunt or my uncle is arriving by train today.
Rule 2. Two singular subjects connected by either/or or neither/nor require a singular verb as in Rule 1.
Examples: Neither Juan nor Carmen is available.
Either Kiana or Casey is helping today with stage decorations.
Rule 3. When I is one of the two subjects connected by either/or or neither/nor, put it second and follow it with the singular verb am.
Example: Neither she nor I am going to the festival.
Rule 4. When a singular subject is connected by or or nor to a plural subject, put the plural subject last and use a plural verb.
Example: The serving bowl or the plates go on that shelf.
Rule 5. When a singular and plural subject are connected by either/or or neither/nor, put the plural subject last and use a plural verb.
Example: Neither Jenny nor the others are available.
Rule 6. As a general rule, use a plural verb with two or more subjects when they are connected by and.
Example: A car and a bike are my means of transportation.
Rule 7. Sometimes the subject is separated from the verb by words such as along with, as well as, besides, or not. Ignore these expressions when determining whether to use a singular or plural verb.
Examples: The politician, along with the newsmen, is expected shortly.
Excitement, as well as nervousness, is the cause
of her shaking.
Rule 8. The pronouns each, everyone, every one, everybody, anyone, anybody, someone, and somebody are singular and require singular verbs. Do not be misled by what follows of.
Examples: Each of the girls sings well.
Every one of the cakes is gone.
NOTE: Everyone is one word when it means everybody. Every one is two words when the meaning is each one.
Rule 9.
With words that indicate portions—percent, fraction, part, majority, some, all, none, remainder, and so forth —look at the noun in your of phrase (object of the preposition) to determine whether to use a singular or plural verb. If the object of the preposition is singular, use a singular verb. If the object of the preposition is plural, use a plural verb.
Examples: Fifty percent of the pie has disappeared.
Pie is the object of the preposition of.
Fifty percent of the pies have disappeared.
Pies is the object of the preposition.
Rule 10. When either and neither are subjects, they always take singular verbs.
Examples: Neither of them is available to speak right now.
Either of us is capable of doing the job.
Rule 11. The words here and there have generally been labeled as adverbs even though they indicate place. In sentences beginning with here or there, the subject follows the verb.
Examples: There are four hurdles to jump.
There is a high hurdle to jump.
Rule 12. Use a singular verb with sums of money or periods of time.
Examples: Ten dollars is a high price to pay.
Five years is the maximum sentence for that offense.
Rule 13. Sometimes the pronoun who, that, or which is the subject of a verb in the middle of the sentence. The pronouns who, that, and which become singular or plural according to the noun directly in front of them. So, if that noun is singular, use a singular verb. If it is plural, use a plural verb.
Examples: Salma is the scientist who writes/write the reports.
The word in front of who is scientist, which is singular. Therefore, use the singular verb writes.
He is one of the men who does/do the work.
The word in front of who is men, which is plural. Therefore, use the plural verb do.
Rule 14. Collective nouns such as team and staff may be either singular or plural depending on their use in the sentence.
Examples: The staff is in a meeting.
Staff is acting as a unit here.
The staff are in disagreement about the findings.
The staff are acting as separate individuals in this example.
The sentence would read even better as:
The staff members are in disagreement about the findings.
What is an interrogative sentence?
An interrogative sentence is a sentence that asks a question.
For example: What color is the door?
What is a statement sentence?
A declarative sentence
What is a declarative sentence?
How do you add punctuation to a declarative sentence?
A declarative sentence needs no special punctuation, nothing more than a period at the end of it.
An interrogative sentence is one that asks a question, and is generally introduced by an interrogative pronoun: who, which, or what; or, by an auxiliary: do, am, have, shall, may, etc.
How does one write an interrogative sentence?
How does one write an imperative sentence?
How does one write an exclamatory sentence?
How does one write a compound complex sentence?
Why is it important to know whether a sentence is simple, compound, complex, or compound complex?
Can an interrogative pronoun like what or which be used as interrogative adjectives?
Yes.
What and which can be used either as interrogative pronouns or as interrogative adjectives followed by nouns.
e.g., What is that?
Can an interrogative pronoun like what or which be used as an interrogative adjective?
Yes.
What and which can be used either as interrogative pronouns or as interrogative adjectives followed by nouns.
e.g. What is that?
Which is his sister?
What time is it?
Which woman is his sister?
In the first two examples, what and which are used as interrogative pronouns. In the last two examples, what and which are used as interrogative adjectives preceding the nouns time and woman.
How do you identify if it is a declarative, imperative, interrogative, or exclamatory sentence?
Are there specific words associated with a declarative, imperative, interrogative, or exclamatory sentence?
Is tag questions and indirect question the same?
Is indirect question a declarative sentence or an interrogative sentence?
What should be the first word of a question?
Question word or helping verb. Except in tag question.
Are there specific characteristics of a declarative, imperative, interrogative, or exclamatory sentence?
What should you be able to comment about an English sentence?
Is it a declarative, interrogative, exclamatory, or an imperative sentence?
Is it a simple, compound, complex, or compound complex sentence?
What is the pattern of the sentence?
Which is subject, verb, object, or complement?
What is the tense of the sentence?
Is it in newspaper format?
How do you write a declarative sentences using the first person I, me, my, we, our? The second person you and your? The third person he, she, it, they, their, his, hers, him, her?
In grammar, the form of a verb is determined by whether its subject is first, second, or third person and either singular or plural.
Can an interrogative pronoun like what or which be used as interrogative adjectives?
Yes.
What is a question mark used for?
Use a question mark to create an interrogative sentence, one that asks a question.
What is an auxiliary verb called if used with another auxiliary verb?
How many tenses can you make with each word?
Can you make twelve tenses from each word?
How do you write an interrogative sentence with the word though in it?
What are the rules for using which in an interrogative sentence?
How do you change an interrogative sentence to a declarative sentence?
Remove the question mark and change the word order so that it becomes a statement. Subject and verb change their position in statement and question.
How do you change a declarative sentence to an interrogative sentence?
Make it a question. Invert subject and verb:
The subject in a sentence is generally the person or thing carrying out an action. The object in a sentence is involved in an action but does not carry it out, the object comes after the verb.
For example:
The boy climbed a tree.
If you want to say more about the subject (the boy) or the object (the tree), you can add an adjective.
For example:
The young boy climbed a tall tree.
If you want to say more about how he climbed the tree you can use an adverb.
For example:
The young boy quickly climbed a tall tree.
The sentence becomes more interesting as it gives the reader or listener more information.
There are more things you can add to enrich your sentence.

Types of Sentences by Structure
Simple Sentence - �I love chocolate.� One independent clause (underlined).
Compound Sentence - �I love chocolate, and I love eating chocolate.� Two or more independent clauses.
Complex Sentence - �I love chocolate because it�s decadent.� One independent clause and one or more dependent clauses (italicized). Note: according to Wikipedia, a sentence like �The dog chewed up the shoes that I just bought� is a simple sentence, not a complex sentence, because the relative clause �that I just bought� simply modifies the noun without performing any other function. I�m not sure how accurate this is, however.
Complex-Compound Sentence - �I love chocolate because it�s decadent, and I love eating chocolate because it�s delicious.� Two or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.
Those four categories apply to normal, grammatical sentences. However, some of our most common expressions are sentences that don�t follow the rules � see Major and Minor Sentences.
Note: obsessive syntacticians (is there any other kind?) have also named more specific types of sentences, which I�ll address when I start learning about the finer points of writing style.
Types of Sentences by Purpose
Declarative Sentence - �I love chocolate.� Used to make a simple statement. Most sentences are declarative. A declarative sentence makes a statement. A declarative sentence ends with a period.The house will be built on a hill.
Interrogative Sentence - �Do you love chocolate?� Used to ask a question. See also Rhetorical Question. An interrogative sentence asks a question. An interrogative sentence ends with a question mark.
Example: How did you find the card?
Exclamatory Sentence - �I need chocolate!� Used for emphasis and emotion.An exclamatory sentence shows strong feeling. An exclamatory sentence ends with an exclamation mark.
Example: The monster is attacking!
Imperative Sentence - �Please buy me some chocolate.� Used for commands, with the pronoun you always implied.An imperative sentence gives a command.
Example: Cheryl, try the other door.
Sometimes the subject of an imperative sentence (you) is understood.
Example: Look in the closet. (You, look in the closet.)
Conditional Sentence - �If I had a billion dollars, I would buy a castle made of chocolate.� Used to express what one would do if a condition were met. There are several types of conditional sentences: the present general (or zero condition), the future more-vivid (or first condition), the future less-vivid (or second condition), the present contrafactual (also sometimes called the second condition), and the past contrafactual (or third condition).

What are five essential parts of a sentence?
The first word should start with a capital letter, subject, predicate, complete thought, and terminal punctuation: period, question mark or exclamation point.
Even if a sentence has the other four requirements, it still will not be a complete sentence without a capital letter at the very beginning.
Examples of Incomplete sentences:
missing subjects.
went to the store.
walked very quickly.
fell under the tree.
Subject
The subject of a complete sentence is who or what the sentence is about.
The subject performs the action, if there is any, in a sentence.
The subject is always a noun or a pronoun.
Traditionally, although not always, the subject is the noun or pronoun closest to the beginning of the sentence.
Writing and using complete sentences is important to earn good grades, express ideas properly, and communicate clearly.
Predicate
The predicate is the action or what is going on in the sentence.
It is always a verb.
A predicate can be one word or several words, not all of which are verbs.
It is always the main action of a sentence.
Linking verbs are not the sort of verb that makes up the predicate.
List of linking verbs,
Sentence fragments and incomplete sentences can lack a predicate:
I gave him.
She received the entire.
Are these sentences?
1. "Ashley walks to the park."
2. "She takes a friend with her."
3. "Climb a tree."
Both (1) and (2) are sentences, but (3) is not a sentence. Why? It does not express a complete thought. We wonder: who climbs a tree? Why?
-By adding some words to (3) we can make a complete sentence:
"Ashley and her friend climb a tree."
Every sentence has a subject and a predicate. The subject usually contains the main subject or noun, and the predicate tells what the subject is doing, which contains the verb of the sentence.
Subject Predicate
Ashley walks to the park
She takes a friend with her
Ashley and her friend climb a tree
A complete sentence is not complete without end of sentence punctuation, which can be one of the following:
period, question mark,
exclamation point.
Does every sentence end with a period?
No, because sentences can also end with ! or ?
What are the types of sentences?
What is the difference between type and kind of sentences?
The types of sentences are: simple sentences, compound sentences, complex sentences, and compound complex sentences.
What are the kinds of sentences?

What constitutes a declarative sentence?
Sentences are regarded as declarative when the subject comes before the verb. �I am going downtown tomorrow� is a declarative sentence.
How do you add punctuation to a declarative sentence?
A declarative sentence needs no special punctuation, nothing more than a period at the end of it.
What kind of sentence is it?
The building will be built on a hill.
It is a declarative sentence.
What kind of sentence is it?
Pass the rice bowl to me.
Try the vegetable curry.
It is an imperative sentence.

What is a declarative sentence?
Declarative sentences are the most common type of sentences in the English language. Entire essays or reports often are written using only declarative sentences, and one should use them far more often than any other type. A declarative sentence simply states a fact or argument, without requiring either an answer or action from the reader. Declarative sentences are punctuated with a simple period.
You answer a question with a declarative sentence.
Imperative and exclamatory sentences are less common.
The grass is green.
I like tea.
These are declarative sentences.
What are some examples of declarative sentences?
A declarative statement is one that describes some aspect of something: size, shape, condition, function. The sky is blue.
A declarative sentence can be simple, compound, complex, or compound complex.
A declarative sentence states something. A declarative sentence does not command, question, or proclaim. A declarative sentence states a fact.

1. Declarative sentences:
Declarative sentences are used to convey information and we always use them far more often than the other of sentences (interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory). In a declarative sentence, the subject normally precedes the predicate. It ends with a full stop (.).

Let us see the negative form.
Negative sentence:
A negative sentence is one indicating something is untrue or incorrect. In English grammar, negative sentence is created by adding the negative words (no or not) after the auxiliary verb in the positively stated sentence. It changes based on the tenses that are being used.

2. Interrogative Sentence:
An interrogative sentence is a type of sentence which usually asks a question and it ends with a question mark. They typically begin with a question words such as what, why, or how, or an auxiliary verb such as do, does, did, can or would.

Wh- Interrogatives or Information Questions

3. Imperative sentences:
Imperative sentences are the sentences, which express commands, advice, and suggestions. The second person ‘you’ is always addressed in the imperative sentences.
For example:
4. Exclamatory Sentence
A type of sentence that expresses strong feelings by making an exclamation. It ends with an exclamation mark (!). You might use it to show anger, confusion, love, happiness, or any other active emotion.
Here are some examples:
- No, you cannot do this! (anger)
- I don’t want to go to her house! (frustration)
- I scored three goals at the soccer game! (happiness)
- I can’t find the key! (confusion)
