A sentence that includes an independent clause and at least one dependent clause is called a <u>complex sentence</u>.
<h3>Further Explanation</h3><h3>Sentence </h3>
- A sentence is a group of words that are arranged in a certain order in order to communicate a certain message.
The purpose of a sentence may be to;
- Make statements. E.g. I will be attending the Olympics this year
- Pose a question; e.g. have you taken lunch today?
- Giving command, requests or making demands
- Convey strong emotion
<h3>Independent clause
</h3>
- It is a group of words that can stand on their own to make a sentence. It contains a subject a verb and expresses a thought that is complete. Therefore, an independent clause is a complete sentence.
<h3>Dependent clause
</h3>
- It is a group of words that cannot stand on their own to make a sentence. They have a subject and a verb but express incomplete thoughts.
- They therefore, depend on independent clause to make complete sentences.
<h3>Types of sentences
</h3><h3>Complex sentences </h3>
- These are sentences that contain both an independent clause and a dependent clause. T
- he sentence can either start with the dependent or independent clause depending on punctuation marks and the subordinating conjunctions.
<h3>Simple sentence </h3>
- These are sentences that contain only one independent clause.
- The sentence may long or short but as a long as it has one independent clause then it is a simple sentence.
- An example: John took the bus. John is the subject, took is the verb
<h3>Compound sentence </h3>
- This is a sentence that has two independent clauses joined together using punctuation marks like semicolon, or coma and a conjunction such as or, and, but, etc.
- Compound sentences can be broken down into two complete sentences, with each sentence having its own subject and verb.
- For Example. John waited for the train but,the train was late
<h3>Compound-complex sentence
</h3>
- It is a sentence that combines two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause.

First of all, you need to know what a compound and a complex sentence is.
A compound sentence (as in your example), is a sentence that contains at least two independent clauses. In your example, there are two independent clauses: 1. Harry drew near the fire + AND + 2. he nearly singed his jacket.
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. So we just need to make one of these independent clauses into a dependent one in order to create a complex sentence:
When Harry drew near the fire, he nearly singed his jacket.
