What is a sentence?

A sentence is a set of words that is complete in itself, typically containing a subject and predicate, conveying a statement, question, exclamation, or command, and consisting of an independent clause and sometimes one or more subordinate clauses.

Simple, Compound and Complex Sentences

                      A simple sentence contains one independent clause. 

“                    Amy rode her bike to the park.

                  

                      A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined with a coordinating                        conjunction. 

                      Amy rode her bike to the park, but Amy did not play with her friend Samara.

          

                      A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one (or more) dependent                          clauses, and it contains at least one subordinating conjunction. 

                       Amy rode her bike to the park today, even though it has been raining heavily outside                           since early morning.
