Answer:
Here is an explanation for various types of sentences. Hope this helps:
Instances:
- His speed won him awards;
- The moon was bright;
- The road was clear;

These sentences have only one subject and one predicate and they are known as simple sentences. They have only one finite verb.

- He was bright and he faired well in his exams;
- The road was clear and we reached soon;
- They fell asleep when we reached their place.
A sentence which is made up of Principal or Main clauses is called a Compound Sentence. The sentences have two parts joined by co-ordinating conjunction. Each part is known as a clause.
Instances:
- As soon as he reached the bus stop, the bus started moving at an increasing speed.
- After the exam results were declared, even though it was expected he rejoiced at gaining the first position.
- We reached the city and it was crowded and the lights went off.
A complex sentence is one made up of two or more Principal or Main clauses. They consist of three clauses of the same order or rank.
