What complex sentences look like. Complex sentences with two or more subordinate clauses

In the section on the question How to distinguish a complex sentence from a complex sentence asked by the author Angela Ustinova the best answer is I'll try in my own words)

Complex sentence - consists of simple sentences that are interconnected by coordinating conjunctions and, as a rule, are equal grammatically and in meaning.
Coordinating conjunctions - And, yes (meaning “and”), and... and, neither... nor, too, also, But, a, yes (meaning “but”), however, but, same, Or, either, whether... either, then... this, not that... either... or... or How... and not only... but and, although... but if not... then, not so much... how much, Namely, that is, or (in the meaning of “that is”), somehow, And then, and then, yes and, and also, etc.

Complex sentence - difficult sentence, in which one simple sentence is subordinate to another, connected by a subordinating conjunction or a conjunctive word.
Subordinating conjunctions - What, so that, as, etc., When, as soon as, only only, barely, only, only, before, since, until, not yet, after, as long as, as long as as, after, because, since, for, due to the fact that, due to the fact that, in view of the fact that, because, in connection with the fact that, due to the fact that, due to the fact that, due to the fact that , If, if, once, if, if, As, as if, as if, as if, exactly, than, rather than, just as, as if.

In general, in a complex compound there are two equal parts, and in a complex compound one depends on the other) VOILA)

Answer from Helena[active]
Simple sentences in complex sentences are connected using conjunctions like, as if, because. In a compound compound using conjunctions that, and.

Answer from Tessa[guru]
In complex sentences, one simple clause (subordinate clause) depends on another (main clause). From the main clause to the subordinate clause you can ask a question. For example:
We watched with keen interest (what were we watching?) as they practiced playing hockey. Besides subordinate clause(as they practiced playing hockey) cannot exist on its own.

IN compound sentence the component parts are grammatically independent of each other, that is, they are equal in rights, which means each of the parts is main and can exist independently. For example:
It’s still very early, but the miners are already heading to their morning shift. That is, from this sentence you can easily make 2 independent sentences.
1. It's still very early.
2. The miners are already heading to their morning shift.
I hope I explained it clearly.

complex and painstaking work. Not all children learn a new topic right away; some need time to figure it out and understand the essence of the rule. Knowing the definition by heart, a child cannot always give examples and apply the rule in practice. There are many types of offers. Let's look at complex sentences in more detail and look at examples with diagrams together.

The concept of complex sentences

Before we begin to explain new topic Child, figure it out on your own. The student will grasp the essence of the topic only when he feels confident from an adult. Where to start explaining new material? Ask your child to make a sentence consisting of two parts, connected by a conjunction and a meaning.

For example:

I saw something behind the curtain and ran into another room so as not to scream in fear.
Analyzing the sentence, we conclude that it consists of two bases connected by the conjunction “and”. Both parts of the sentence are connected in meaning, that is, one is subordinate to the other.

Let's look at the rule:

The definition must not only be learned, but also understood. Along with it, highlight the basics of simple sentences and depict them schematically. Ask to use the example diagram to create your own proposal. If a student has difficulty completing a task, help him. Read the definition again, think together and start completing the task.

To begin with, use a simple scheme where two simple sentences are connected by a conjunction or a conjunctive word. Do not use too many minor terms, otherwise the child will get confused and will not be able to punctuate and highlight the main terms.

Conjunctions and allied words

NGNs are linked together by conjunctions and allied words. Print them out for your child so they are always at hand:

Explain to your child that they are members of a sentence, so they must be taken into account when parsing syntactically.

If your homework says that you need to find complex sentences in the text, teach your child to use the action algorithm. Print it out and hang it above your student's desk. When completing the task, the reminder will be useful to the child and he will easily remember how to find a complex sentence.

Independent work

To consolidate the material covered, invite your child to complete the task independently. After the job is done, check for accuracy. I made mistakes, don’t be angry, because the topic is really not simple. Mom dictates sentences, the child completes the task:

Next, teach your curious fidget to use the diagrams. Show how to mark a main clause as a subordinating clause. Tell us that the subordination in a sentence can be different: stems can be connected sequentially, parallelly and homogeneously. On specific examples explain the difference using diagrams:

Important point! The subordinate clause can appear in any part of the sentence.

In this case, you can make a proposal:

When it started to rain, we came home.

Or another option:

When we arrived home, it started to rain.

May be so:

We came home when it started to rain.

As you can see, by swapping the basics, the meaning remains. Come up with your own complex examples, where the subordinate clause comes at the beginning, middle and end of the sentence.

Many children cannot immediately determine which type a particular sentence belongs to. Don't worry, when studying new topics, the teacher and the children repeat the material covered to refresh their memory. After all, everything is interconnected, and if you miss one, it is very difficult to understand the other.

In the section on the question How to quickly and easily determine whether a sentence is compound or complex? given by the author Marina the best answer is By alliance:
If the conjunctions are “a, but, and, or, yes (in the meaning of and)”, etc., this is a composition.
And if the conjunctions are “Which, because”, etc. AND you can also ask questions from the dependent clause to the main clause, then this is a subordinate clause
It started to rain and a thunderstorm began - composed
It started to rain, because of which a thunderstorm started - subordinate (Why did the thunderstorm start? Because it started to rain

Answer from Drizzle[newbie]
In a complex sentence, the parts are equal in meaning, which means that by removing the conjunction, we can make them simple sentences without distorting the meaning.

Answer from chevron[guru]
In a complex sentence, the parts are equal in meaning, which means that by removing the conjunction, we can make them simple sentences without distorting the meaning. In a complex sentence, the parts depend on one another. And if one of them can be an independent proposal, then the other - never! In addition, you need to know that in complex sentences, coordinating conjunctions are used to connect parts, and in complex sentences, subordinating conjunctions are used, respectively.

Answer from Sedge[guru]
very simple, based on conjunctions:
in compounds - and, a, but
in complex subordinates - what, when, if, which, etc.
possible on questions, in complex ones one depends on the other

Answer from Marylave[newbie]
Compound - when two parts of a sentence are not related to each other. Complex - when there is some kind of connection between them, and usually they are united by some kind of union: which, because, etc.

Answer from Arini-k[guru]
According to the conjunctions and allied words used.
Check if you can ask a question from one simple sentence to another. If yes, then complex

Answer from Lyudmila[guru]
Look at the means of communication! In SSP there are coordinating conjunctions, and in SPP there are subordinating conjunctions and allied words.

What is a complex sentence? Every schoolchild asked this question. How can you easily determine which sentence is in front of you: simple or complex? It's quite easy, the main thing is to know a few tricky features.

What is a complex sentence: definition, types and examples

A complex sentence is a sentence that contains more than one stem; they are connected by subordinating conjunctions. Also, parts of such a sentence can be connected. It is worth noting that, along with complex sentences, there are also complex sentences in which the parts are connected by the conjunctions “and”, “but”, “a”, in some cases there is a conjunction “yes”. So, before determining what offer is in front of you, you need to note grammar basics, if there are two or more, then you need to ask a question from one of them. The part from which the question is asked is called the main part, and the part to which the question is asked is called the subordinate part.

A complex sentence, examples of which will be presented below, may include several types of connection of parts, for example, parallel, sequential. With parallel, the question is asked from the main part to the rest, with sequential - from each to the next. This suggests that in a complex sentence the dependent parts are always unequal.

What is a complex sentence? Now there is an answer to this question: it is a sentence with unequal dependent clauses that are joined by a subordinating conjunction. Now we need to move on to classification. There are determinative, adverbial, which, in turn, have about 7 more subspecies, as well as explanatory. The first type is the type of sentence when the dependent part answers the questions of adjectives, that is, it creates the emotional coloring of the sentence. For example: “The garden, due to which the house was not visible, was a famous place in the city.” Explanatory answers to questions in all cases except the nominative. This can easily be confused with a definition, so it is very important to ask the question correctly. For example: “Nikita was thinking about the same thing his sister was talking about earlier.”

The largest group is complex sentences with an adverbial clause; there are about 7 additional subclauses: subordinate clauses, reasons, goals, conditions, places, consequences and others. It is quite easy to distinguish them: all the questions that can be asked of adverbs will be asked in this case. Therefore, as a rule, identifying the part is simple and easy.

What is the answer to this question can be found in the article. In addition to the definition, the article presents all classifications of types of subordination, as well as types of subordinate parts. Having such information, you can safely go to the unified state exam, because some of the questions aimed at increased level, is associated precisely with the task of determining the type or type of subordination of parts in a sentence.
