  3.

  5. Important Definition #1—Compound Sentence Two independent clauses joined by • A comma followed by a coordinating conjunction • Coordinating conjunctions = FANBOYS • FANBOYS = “for”, “and”, “nor”, “but”, “or”, “yet”, or “so” [Each independent clause has its own subject and predicate.]

  6. Important Definition #1 (Part 2)—Compound Sentence Two independent clauses can also be joined with a semi-colon (;): • Semi-colons should be used when • the two subjects are identical • the sentences share a common pattern or topic [Each independent clause has its own subject and predicate.]

  7. Important Definition #2—Simple Sentence with a Compound Predicate One independent clauses with the the same subject but two or more predicates joined by • a coordinating conjunction FANBOYS = “for”, “and”, “nor”, “but”, “or”, “yet”, or “so” • NO COMMA APPEARS UNLESS 3 or more PREDICATES complete the subject. [The single independent clause has a subject and multiple predicates.]

  8. Important Definition #3— Compound Sentence with a Conjunctive Adverb Two independent clauses joined together by • A conjunctive adverb • however --therefore • furthermore --nevertheless • for example • Semicolon before the conjunctive adverb and a comma after it [Each independent clause has its own subject and predicate.]
