@Brocolie
which options falls off right away?
B.
yes, B is not the answer, because it can't be a simple sentence. Think though, you have: you have 2 clauses, but only the first can be independent. The second clause is subordinate. http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/runons.htm RUN on. http://www.grammar-monster.com/glossary/compound_sentence.htm Compound I think it is compound.
wait, my bad, the second claause can also be a sentence,.
So, it is compund.
I said that second is subordinate, and I think it is not.
Okay. I thought it was run-on at first because in my book, it says that it can only be a compound if there is a conjuntion connecting the 2 sentences. It was kinda confusing.
no, I looked over a link, and it is actually true that it has to be joined with a conjunction. it says that next to the first cube. just go with run on, and sorry for confusing you so much.
http://www.grammar-monster.com/glossary/compound_sentence.htm see the 4 cubes, the 4 conditions?
Thats okay. Could you help me out with a few more?
Maybe.. I am not so good at English, as I have just manifested myself-:(
Its a run on
these are very colorful. can stand alone
those are very plain. can stand alone too
