Which sentence below is a simple sentence? a. Unless my girlfriend postpones her visit from Calgary, I will not have time to stu
dy for my exam. c. Jack and Jill went up the hill. b. The cat lived in the backyard, but the dog, who knew he was superior, lived inside the house. d. Knowing that you hate me makes me sad.
C. Jack and Jill went up the hill. This is because a simple sentence is made up of an independent clause. A compound is made up of both an independent and dependent clause A dependent clause is a phrase that cannot stand on its own. For example, "When we went to Brusters". This kind of clause needs to be paired with an independent clause to form a full thought/sentence. Independent clauses are phrases that can stand on their own as a simple sentence. For example, "I ordered strawberry ice cream" In your question's case, there is one independent clause, which is "Jack and Jill went up the hill". Compound sentences combine 1 independent and 1 dependent clause to form a sentence. If we combine my two examples by the use of a comma (but you can also use a coordination conjunction), we can form a compound sentence. "When we went to Brusters, I ordered strawberry ice cream." Complex sentences must include the elements of a compound sentence, so that is not correct. Since you only have one independent clause and nothing else, "Jack and Jill went up the hill" is an example of a simple sentence.
The official language of the United Arab Emirates is Arabic. Modern Standard Arabic is taught in schools, and most native Emiratis speak a dialect of Gulf Arabic that is generally similar to that spoken in surrounding countries.
