Question

Identify whether the given sentence is Simple/Complex/Compound:

Answer 1

Answer:

Compound.

Explanation:

The sentence is a compound sentence because it is formed of two separable sentences:

  "My brother practices drums every day. He is improving."

When a sentence consists of two or more independent clauses (think: potential sentences on their own), it is a compound sentence.

A simple sentence contains only one independent clause.

A complex sentence is a dependent clause and an independent clause together.
