Dependent clause (Subordinate clause)

5. The cat pounced. The mouse ran away. Simple sentence – one action.
It contains a subject and a verb.
It expresses a complete thought.
The cat pounced.

6. SIMPLE SENTENCE:
A simple sentence is also called an independent clause because it contains a subject and a verb, and it can stand alone as a sentence.
Examples:
Some students prefer to study in the mornings.
Gerard and Michael play football every afternoon.
Jiro goes to the library and studies every day.

7. The cat pounced but the mouse ran away.
Compound sentence – usually more than one action going on.
Two simple sentences, joined by a coordinating conjunction (FANBOYS).

the mouse ran away.

8. COMPOUND SENTENCE
A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a conjunction.
You must use a comma two separate two independent clauses.

Jared played football, so his mom went shopping. 
Miles played basketball, yet he finished his homework.

9. Although the cat pounced, the mouse ran away.
Complex sentence – a simple sentence plus a dependent clause which adds information to the sentence.
A dependent clause has a subject and verb but can’t stand on its own as a sentence.
Although the cat pounced, the mouse ran away.

10. COMPLEX SENTENCE
A complex sentence has an independent clause joined by one or more dependent clauses.
A complex sentence always has a subordinator such as because, since, after, although, or when or a relative pronoun such as that, who, or which.
