Answer:  Compound

THE 4 SENTENCE STRUCTURES

<span>The simple sentence is one of the four basic sentence structures. The other structures are the compound sentence, the complex sentence, and the compound-complex sentence.</span>

<span> <span>Simple sentence: I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal at the bookstore.</span> </span>

a simple sentence is a sentence with only one independent clause.

<span> <span>Compound sentence: I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal, but the bookstore was out of maps.</span> </span>

a compound sentence can be thought of as two (or more) simple sentences joined by a conjunction and/or an appropriate mark of punctuation.

<span> <span>Complex sentence: Because I was planning to visit Tokyo, I purchased a tour guide and a level journal.</span> </span>

 a complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause (or main clause) and at least one dependent clause. Put another way, a complex sentence is made up of a main clause with one or more dependent clauses joined to it with an appropriate conjunction or pronoun.

<span> <span>Compound-complex sentence: While Mary waited, I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal at the bookstore, and then the two of us went to dinner. </span> </span>

a compound-complex sentence is a sentence with two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause<span>. Also known as a complex-compound sentence.</span>

Identify the following sentence as simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex.
<span>The store is usually open by now, but the owners may be on vacation, or maybe they're just late today.</span>
