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.

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

Because But When Therefore And Although After While Since Until Where

use the same connective over and over again

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.
