Take a look here :) It explain Compound, Simple, and complex sentences. http://eslbee.com/sentences.htm
Tell me what you got after you take a look at the site :)
I know what they are. I just don't understand which one it is. I think its either b or d, but don't know 4 sure @sammixboo
It says A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinator. The coordinators are as follows: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. (Helpful hint: The first letter of each of the coordinators spells FANBOYS.) Except for very short sentences, coordinators are always preceded by a comma. ----- So I would guess it would be B.
ok, thank you! @sammixboo
No problem!
