Some sentences are complex. Such sentences have two clauses, one main [or independent] and one subordinate [or dependent]. The essential ingredient in a complex sentence is the subordinate conjunction: after although as because before even if even though if in order that once provided that rather than since so that than that though unless until when whenever where whereas wherever whether while why So you need to be able to identify them. So which one pf these words would fit best in the sentence "Supper won't be ready for another half hour. We have time for a bit of ping pong."?
