What is sentence ? 

A sentence is a grammatical unit that expresses a complete thought. It typically consists of one or more words and includes a subject (who or what the sentence is about) and a predicate (what the subject does or what happens to it). 

According To Structure there are three kind of sentence.

• Simple
• Complex
• Compound

Simple Sentences :

A simple sentence consists of one independent clause. An independent clause contains a subject and a verb, expressing a complete thought.

Examples:

• “I like coffee.”
• “Mary likes tea.”
• “The earth goes round the sun.”
• “Mary did not go to the party.”

Compound Sentences:

A compound sentence is formed by joining two or more independent clauses using a conjunction (such as “and,” “but,” “or,” etc.) or a semicolon.

Each of these independent clauses could stand alone as a separate sentence.

Examples:

• “I like coffee, and Mary likes tea.”
• “Mary went to work, but John went to the party.”
• “Our car broke down; we came last.”

Complex Sentences:

A complex sentence consists of an independent clause combined with a dependent clause.

The dependent clause starts with a subordinating conjunction (e.g., “because,” “when,” “if”) or a relative pronoun (e.g., “who,” “that”).

Examples:

• “We missed our plane because we were late.”
• “Our dog barks when she hears a noise.”
• “He left in a hurry after he got a phone call.”
• “Do you know the man who is talking to Mary?”
