Question

When all is said and done, we’ll always be sisters.
simple

compound

complex

compound-complex

Answer 1

Answer 2

Answer 3

i guessed b

Answer 4

This is a dependent clause, "When all is said and done," joined with an independent clause, "we’ll always be sisters."

Dependent plus Independent = Complex Sentence, C.


Additional Info:
To make this Simple, it'd be just one independent clause.
Example: "We'll always be sisters."

To make this Compound, there needs to be two independent clauses, joined by a conjunction.
Example: "We love each other, and we'll always be sisters."

To make this Compound-Complex, there needs to be two independent clauses and one or more independent clauses.
Example: "Although we don't always agree, we love each other, and we'll always be sisters."

Hope that helps!

Answer 5

I concur with biophil. When you have a dependent clause and an independent clause the sentence is complex.

A compound complex would have two independent clauses and one dependent clause.


A simple sentence is just an independent clause Independent means it can stand by its self.

Answer 6

Oppes, made a mistake. I meant to say Compound complex needs two independent and one or more dependent.

Sorry!

Answer 7

I figured that.
