a sentence containing a subordinate clause or clauses or you can also say its a complex sentence contains an independent clause and at least one dependent clause.
Answer:
The sentence type used in the text given below is <u>Compound sentence</u>.
Explanation:
Compound sentences are those in which two clauses are joint with the help of coordinating conjunctions e.g (and, but, so, nor, for, or, yet etc.)
In compound sentences clauses may joint with the help of coordinate conjunctions, commas or semicolon. In the given text two clause are joint with coordinate conjunction that is "and". A clause is a part of sentence with a subject and a verb making a complete sense. Hence the given sentence is compound sentence because more than one subject is used giving complete sense and then joint by a conjunction.
No, this sentence is not a verb phrase, because the subject is not part of the verb phrase here.
Here's why. The subject is "I," the verb is "believed," and everything following the verb ("every word he said") forms the object of the verb. By definition, a verb phrase is one verb + its various objects or modifiers. Here, "every word he said" operates as one single object (it's not just one word, it's EVERY word, and it's not just every word, it's every word HE said). But the subject is separate from the verb phrase, so the entire sentence is not a verb phrase (it's a subject + a verb phrase).
