2 Here are some examples My dog is small. I live in Stonham Aspal. Simple sentences have 1 clause. Most simple sentences have a subject and a predicate. E.g. My dog is small. Subject = dog Predicate = It is small.

3 A compound sentence is usually made from 2 or more simple sentences (or clauses) that are joined with a connective. My dog is not popular with the neighbours. It scares the postman away. My dog is not popular with the neighbours it scares the postman away. because

4 Because But When Therefore And Although After While Since Until Where

5 use the same connective over and over again

6 A complex sentence is similar to a compound sentence, however when you take away the connective one of the clauses does not make sense. E.g. The dinner was burned because she had forgotten it. Clause 1 Connective Clause 2 Clause 2 does not make sense on its own, without clause 1 = complex sentence.
