Hapusyour blog is flat!
BalasHapusis there a formula for types of sentence structure?
BalasHapusOf course.
Hapus1. Simple Sentence memiliki dua rumus, yaitu:
* subject + verb + complement
Example:
- Thea is a teacher.
- Aiden is a handsome doctor.
* subject + verb + object
Example :
- My mother buys some fruits.
- I need a paper and a pencil.
2. Compound Sentence
* subject + predicate (verb + object/ complement) + coordinate cojunction + subject + predicate (verb + object/ complement)
Example :
- I like to paint a wall and my sister likes to read a novel.
- Ani wants to make a cake, so I help her buying some ingredients.
3. Complex Sentence
* IC + SC/RP + C
IC = independent clause
SC = subordinating conjunction
RP = relative pronoun
C = clause
Example : Tyrone gave a sandwich to the homeless man who was scavenging for food in the dumpster.
* SC/RP + C + IC
Examples : Because Nicole doesn’t like cheese, she never eats pizza.
4. Compound-Complex Sentence
Formula: DC + IC + CC + IC
Example : Although I love hiking, I haven’t had the time to go lately, and I haven’t found anyone to hike with.

Hello. Your blog is very good and easy to understand^^
BalasHapusThankyou :)
HapusAlmira, can you explain the difference between the independent and dependent clause?
BalasHapusAn independent clause is a group of words that can stand on its own as a sentence: it has a subject, a verb, and is a complete thought.
HapusA dependent clause is a group of words that also contains a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete thought. Because it is not a complete thought, a dependent clause cannot stand on its own as a sentence; it is dependent on being attached to an independent clause to form a sentence.
Please make the explanation completel
BalasHapusOkay sis, i'm so sorry :)
