Choosing what types of sentences to use in an essay can be challenging for several reasons. The writer must consider the following questions: Are my ideas simple or complex? Do my ideas require shorter statements or longer explanations? How do I express my ideas clearly? This handout discusses the basic components of a sentence, the different types of sentences, and various functions of each type of sentence.What Is a Sentence?
A sentence is a complete set of words that conveys meaning. A sentence can communicate o a statement (I am studying.) o a command (Go away.) o an e!) o a question (What time is it?) A sentence is composed of one or more clauses. A clause contains a subject and verb.Independent and Dependent Clauses

Sentences are divided into four categories: simple sentences, compound sentences, complex sentences, and compound-complex sentences.Simple Sentences
Definition A simple sentence contains one independent clause.Examples Johnny rode his bike to school.
Who is your best friend?

Definition A compound sentence contains two independent clauses. A coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) often links the two independent clauses and is preceded by a comma. Examples She wanted to go on vacation, so she saved up her money.I like apples, but my sister loves bananas.
Tim loves to read, and he also loves to hike.
Complex Sentences
Definition A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. A complex sentence will include at least one subordinating conjunction. Examples She went to class even though she was sick. As John was arriving to work, he realized he forgot his lunch. While I enjoy classical music, I prefer rock and roll because I play the drums.Compound-Complex Sentences

A compound-complex sentence combines complex sentence and compound sentence forms. A compound-complex sentence contains one or more independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.Examples Although she took

Sentence Types and Functions, Spring 2014. 3 of 6 What Are the Functional Purposes of each Type of Sentence? Because each type of sentence can serve various functions, the writer should use the type of sentence that best communicates the purpose of his or her idea.

Consider the amount of information your readers need, and consider the links the readers need to process the information. Vary sentence structures to pace your readers through your argument.Functions of Simple Sentences

The writer can tailor the amount of information he or she provides by adding independent and dependent clauses to simple sentences.To combine similar
