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>

Which of these would please a Romantic poet most?
zheka24 [161]
Well, there are two answers to this question actually.
I believe that a medieval ballad would definitely please a Romantic poet, because it is all about love and all that.
However, in Romanticism, poets and writers were obsessed with the macabre, so they would probably enjoy Greek tragedies as well.
