10. Simple sentence
A simple sentence has one independent
clause and no dependent clauses:
The student yawned.
11. Although a simple sentence cannot
have a dependent clause, it can have
modifiers:
The tall student yawned loudly.
The basic sentence is ‘The student
yawned’. The other words are
modifiers - they are descriptive words.
12. A simple sentence contains only one
independent clause, but it can have
more than one subject or verb:
Two Subjects:
The student and his friend yawned.
Two Verbs:
The student yawned and fell asleep.
13. A sentence with all these elements will be long, but it is
still simple because it contains only one independent
clause:
The tall student and his friend yawned
loudly and fell asleep.
Can you identify the ‘real’ sentence and
the modifiers?

clauses that are joined together.

26. #1: Simple Sentence
A simple sentence has one subject
and one verb
I like to study grammar.
A simple sentence is also called an
independent clause.
An independent clause ends with a
period or semicolon.
28. #2: Compound Sentence
A compound sentence is made up of
two or more simple sentences joined by
one of the following:
A comma and one of the FANBOYS
A semicolon
I like to study grammar, and I love this class.
I like to study grammar; I love this class.
A semicolon and a transitional
I like to study grammar; therefore, I love this class.
30. #3: Complex Sentence
A complex sentence is a simple
sentence (independent clause) to which
a part of a sentence (dependent clause)
has been added.
Because I like to study grammar, I
love this class.
I love this class because I like to study
grammar.
31. Dependent clause
Because you love me, I love you.
Independent clause
A dependent clause joined to an independent clause.
(The dependent clause needs the rest of the
sentence for support.)
32. Fragment!
Because you love me.
A dependent clause contains a subject and verb. It begins
with a subordinating conjunction, and thus it does not express
a completed thought. A dependent clause is also called a
subordinate clause.
Dependent clauses, like babies, cannot stand alone.
33. Complex Sentence
One independent clause and
one dependent clause.
These sentences use subordinating
conjunctions to link ideas:
after if
because
although
before since unless
while until
as
when

39. A Tip on Punctuation
Since dependent clauses are only part
of a sentence, you can never connect
them to another sentence with a
semicolon. Semicolons are only used
between two independent clauses.
I have loved you for years ; although I
never admitted it.
No!
I have loved you for years, although I
never admitted it.
OK

A compound-complex sentence has at
least two independent clauses and at
least one dependent clause.
2 independent clauses + 1 dependent clause

44. Compound-Complex Sentence

47. There are four skills that need to be mastery
by students in learning English. They are listening,
speaking, reading, and writing. Listening and reading
are receptive skills, and speaking and writing are
productive skill. “The four skills are important;
however, of all the four skills, speaking seems
intuitively the most important” (Ur, 1996:120).

of all the four skills, speaking seems intuitively the

49. There are some experts who state that speaking is the
most important. McDonough and Shaw (1993:151) state that
“Speaking is often the skill upon which a person is judge „at
face‟”. In other words, people may often form judgments
about our language competence from our speaking rather than
from any of the other language skills. In addition, Richards
and Renandya (2002:210) also write in their book that
“Speaking is one of central elements of communication”. In
EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teaching, it is an aspect
that needs special attention and instruction.

52. I live in a house in west Provo. I like the
view from our house. We have lived there
since November. We also have a car that I
like very much. We were in an accident a
few months ago. We hit a deer that was
crossing the street at night. I felt sorry for
the deer, but it cost a lot of money to repair
the car.
53. My husband and I bought our first house last
November, and we love it. It is located in west
Provo near Utah Lake. Although we cannot see the
lake from our house, we do have a beautiful view
of Mount Timpanogos. Our house has three
bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room and a
family room, and a large kitchen and dining area.
We also have a large backyard and a small garden.
We are very happy to own our own home, and I
hope that we will live there for several years.
54. Paragraph Structure
A paragraph should have a logical structure
that is easy to put into an outline:
•
•
•
•
•
Topic Sentence
Supporting Detail
Supporting Detail
Supporting Detail
Concluding Sentence
55. The Topic Sentence
• The topic of a paragraph is
stated in one sentence. This is
called the topic sentence.
56. Topic Sentences
• A topic sentence is the sentence that tells the
reader the main idea of the paragraph.
• The topic sentence should contain only one main
idea. It should be specific and detailed.
• The topic sentence is often found at the beginning
of the paragraph, but it can be in other places, too.
57. Topic Sentences: Good Examples
• When I was a child, I lived in a house that
had a strange atmosphere.
• There is a canyon in Northern Arizona that
is the most beautiful place on Earth.
• My favorite item of clothing is a
comfortable, worn pair of jeans that I have
had for many years.
58. Topic Sentences: Bad Examples
• I went to the Grand Canyon this winter and
to Mexico in the spring of 1994.
• My friend is nice.
• I like my bedroom.
59. The rest of the paragraph consists
of sentences that develop or
explain the main idea.
•
Through the centuries rats
have managed to survive all our
efforts to destroy them. We have
poisoned them and trapped
them. We have fumigated,
flooded, and burned them. We
have tried germ warfare. Some
rats even survived atomic bomb
tests conducted on Entwetok
atoll in the Pacific after World
War II. In spite of all our efforts,
these enemies of ours continue to
prove that they are the most
indestructible of pests.
61. Unity in the Paragraph
Every sentence in a paragraph should support the main
idea expressed in the topic sentence.
62. The concluding or
clincher sentence
• Restate the topic sentence in different words.
• A clincher sentence or concluding sentence
clinches the point made in the paragraph.
• It summarizes the paragraph.
63. Coherence in a Paragraph
• Stick to the point: The ideas have
a clear and logical relation to each other.
• Put details or examples or
incidents in logical order.
