Thank you so much I’m so happy you made this I’m legit crying I failed a test miserably because I had no idea how to do these simple things even though I was taught now I can retake and hopefully get my grade back up
Hello. I like the visual and how slowly and clearly you speak. However, I believe in the video, there a couple of errors in the sentence analysis. At 7:00, you analyze six sentences. You say that #2 is a complex sentence. "Because of the heat" actually is not a clause because there is no verb. "Because of" is actually a prepositional phrase. That means that #2 is a simple sentence with a prepositional phrase at the beginning. And also, I think number 5 is a complex sentence with a reduced adjective clause. If you un-reduce the adjective clause, you have "The two teams that were left in the competition were both very good." The two teams were both very good (main clause). That were very good (adjective/relative clause).
Hi Jessica, you're right! Sentence number 2 is simple. I'll have a closer look at sentence 5 when I get a chance. Thanks for taking the time to let me know!
Complex: My father was fascinated because the view was amazing. Although the tickets were expensive , there were a lot of people there. Compound: They sat on the seat , and the roller coaster began to move. My mother was crying , yet i was laughing. Simple: Ali and Tuna are riding bikes. The mountain was covered by snow. Are these correct??? TNX for the lesson.
Me and my friend were biking on the mountain. The mountain was very dangerous but we still had fun. Me and my family went to the best rollarcoaster ever! My family and I had a lot of fun. My dad took me to a aquarium by the beach. It was my first time at a aquarium.
