STRUCTURE PROJECT (COMPOUND SENTENCE)

COMPOUND SENTENCE

A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinator. The coordinators are as follows : for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. Except for very short sentences, coordinators are always preceded by a comma.

Examples:

1. I tried to speak Javanese, and my friend tried to speak Indonesian.
2. I really want to go to school, but I am too lazy to drive.
3. Everyone was busy, so I went to the school alone.
4. Putri watched television, so her mother went shopping.
5. We have never been to Bali, nor have we visited Jogja.
