1. A compound sentence takes two ** INDEPENDENT CLAUSES ** and combines them using a conjunction. For example: Tohru went to the store __and__ she bought some leeks. INDEPENDENT INDEPENDENT IC + IC = Compound Sentence

2. A complex sentence takes one ** INDEPENDENT CLAUSE ** and one **DEPENDENT CLAUSE** and combines them. For example: Although Kyo hates rats, he likes Yuki a lot. DEPENDENT INDEPENDENT DC + IC = Complex Sentence

Complex sentences can also have more than one independent clause like so: Even though Akito loves Kureno, she hates Kyo __because__ he is a cat. DEPENDENT IND. IND. Compound DC + COMP = Complex Sentence In other words, dependent clauses combined with compound sentences ALSO create complex sentences

Three Differences Between Commas and Semi-Colons Pauses with semi-colons are greater than those of commas. Commas can be used with two ideas with no evident relation Semi-colons show emphasis

The girl, __with the brown hair__, rides her Unicorn to the store A Comma was used because the underlined section is extra information.

There were fish, worms, cows, and gorillas in the ocean. A comma was used because there was a list of items.

We traveled to Phoenix, Arizona; Seoul, South Korea; Tokyo, Japan; and Honolulu, Hawaii. A semi-colon was used to separate the items on the list so that there was no confusion on the places of which we travelled. Otherwise known as using the semi-colon as a "super comma"
