Transformation of sentences into simple, compound and complex types.
A compound sentence can be transformed into a simple sentence by converting one of the main clauses into a phrase.
For example: He was sleeping in a garden and a snake bit in as follows.
Into a simple sentence: sleeping in the garden, he was bitten by a snake.
The same compound sentence can be transformed into complex sentence by converting the main clause
For example: He was sleeping in the garden. "When he was sleeping in the garden, a snake bit him".
The complex sentence can be converted into a simple sentence by converting one of the clauses into a phrase.
For example: A lorry hit him, when he was crossing the road" can be converted into a simple sentence as follows:
"Crossing the road, he was hit by a lorry."
⇒ A simple sentence can be converted into compound sentence by converting the phrase into a main clause or a complex sentence by converting the phrase into a subordinate clause.
Let us take a simple sentence and see how it can be converted into a compound or a complex sentence.
- "The coffee is too hot to drink" is the simple sentence.
- The same sentence converted into compound sentence : The coffee is too hot and it cannot be drunk.
- The same sentence converted into complex sentence : The coffee is so hot that it cannot be drunk.
