How to vary my sentence structure

How to vary my sentence structure

1. Simple sentence- A simple sentence has a subject and only one verb.Example: The students are learning.

2. A main clause is a clause that can form a complete sentence standing alone.

3. A subordinate clause is a clause that does not make sense alone.

4. A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things or persons which are not similar. Example: As big as an elephant.

5. A metaphor is a word or phrase that is used to make a comparison between two people, things, animals, or places. Example: The snow is a white blanket.

6. A compound sentence is formed when you join two main clauses with a connective. In a compound sentence the clauses are linked by coordinating conjunctions / connectives (and, but, so, or). Example: I like bananas and I like apples.
