In the short tale "Emperor's New Clothes" by Hans Christian Andersen, the Emperor hires the swindlers because he loves wearing fancy clothes and a important procession is around the corner. These two swindlers promised him "the finest, best suit of clothes from a fabric invisible to anyone who is unfit for his position or hopelessly stupid". Since the Emperor's ministers didn't want to admit that they could not see the clothes, they lied to the Emperor. Eventually, the Emperor lied himself too and as a result he went naked to the procession.

Is “After the election is over, I will call you with results, and hopefully, our candidate will have won.” a complex or compound
Lorico [155]

Answer:

A compound-complex sentence

Explanation:

A complex sentence is a sentence that consists of an independent clause and at least one dependent clause.

A compound-complex sentence is a sentence that consists of at least two independent clauses and one dependent clause.

An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence, which means that it must contain a subject and a predicate and express a complete thought.

A dependent clause can contain a subject and a predicate but does not express a complete thought, which is why it can't stand alone as a sentence.

There are two independent clauses in the given sentence:

  • I will call you with results.
  • Our candidate will have won.

And there is one dependent clause:

  • After the election is over...

That is why this sentence is a compound-complex sentence.
