Hi @BugzytheGreat I would love to help you with this, Please respond as soon as possible so that we can get started. - The Librarian, Joshua
Okay! Thanks!
Hi @BugzytheGreat lets begin with number 10, Its a: B. Compound sentence | Would you like me to explain why? - The Librarian, Joshua
Yea...cause I don't really understand this stuff.
10 is a simple
Hi, @BugzytheGreat the reason it would be a Compound sentence is because there is a comma in between the sentence this will usually mean they combined two or more sentences. Combining two or more sentences creates what is referred to as a "Compound sentence" - The Librarian, Joshua
Oh, Okay. That;s simple enough. Thanks!
Hi @BugzytheGreat now lets move on to number 11 - The Librarian, Joshua
Okay. @Librarian
Hi, @BugzytheGreat number 11 would be an example of a Complex Sentence | Heres why: 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 (and many others) or a relative pronoun such as that, who, or which. - The Librarian, Joshua
Okay. So basically a Complex sentence is sort of like a compound sentence except they are only connected by certain keywords???
Hi, @BugzytheGreat exactly, You seem to be learning quite fast so would you like to try the next one tell me what you think the answer is? - The Librarian, Joshua
okay i think its: 10-a 11-C 12-A 13-B 14-A 15-B 16-C
but im not 100% sure
^ @lexikaylynn Giving answers without explanations is against the rules and dose not help the user. - The Librarian, Joshua
how many people actually listen to that?
Okay, uhm... Compound sentence. Because there is a comma and they can be two different sentences when you replace the comma?
hope i could help @BugzytheGreat
Thanks @lexikaylynn
Hi, @BugzytheGreat thats is correct! Great job! - The Librarian, Joshua

Okay, thank you @Librarian
Hi, @BugzytheGreat shall we move on to number 13? - The Librarian, Joshua
Yea, although I hate it xD
Hi, @BugzytheGreat ok lets begin, What do you think the answer is? - The Librarian, Joshua
I think it's...Adverbial Clause.
Because it was describing the most popular name?
Yes @BugzytheGreat that is correct because: An adverbial clause will meet three requirements: First, it will contain a subject and verb. You will also find a subordinate conjunction that keeps the clause from expressing a complete thought. Finally, you will notice that the clause answers one of these three adverb questions: How? When? or Why? - The Librarian, Joshua
Right! It answers when! Okay, now it's making more sense.
I think that fourteen would be...Independent Clause, because it could stand alone?
Hi, @BugzytheGreat that one is very tricky because it appears to be a Adjectival Clause but yes I believe you are correct in this case it is an Independent Clause. - The Librarian, Joshua
Awesome!

Hi, @BugzytheGreat ok thats perfectly fine we are on number 15, What do you think the answer is? - The Librarian, Joshua
A Noun Clause, because it describes Caitlyn, being the noun?
Hi, @BugzytheGreat yes I believe you are correct. - The Librarian, Joshua
Alright. And 16...Adjectival, because it describes the name?
That is correct @BugzytheGreat please let me know if you need anymore help. - The Librarian, Joshua
