II. Clauses

Second, a sentence could be one simple sentence containing the above mentioned components. However, very often it contains two clauses: a main and subordinate clause. Thus the sentence turns out a complex sentence, compound sentence, or compound-complex sentence depending on what type of clauses the subordinate clause is. We may use the sentences mentioned in section I to make a compound-complex sentence by combining them together.
