English grammar worksheet testing sentence types with multiple-choice questions.

Let’s solve each question by understanding the definitions:

---

✔ Simple Sentence: Contains one independent clause (one subject and one verb, expressing a complete thought).

✔ Compound Sentence: Contains two or more independent clauses, usually joined by a coordinating conjunction (FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) or a semicolon.

✔ Complex Sentence: Contains one independent clause and at least one dependent (subordinate) clause. Dependent clauses often start with subordinating conjunctions like *although, because, when, if, since, while*, etc.
