Tosspon Engl 105 Due today: Compare/Contrast sheet Agenda 1.Run-On sentences - Review Sentence/Fragment/Run on 2.Incorporating research 3.Quoting/paraphrasing

Quick review: Fragments To be a complete sentence- – Subject – Verb – Express a complete thought Watch for words like “although” and “because”! Because I went to the park. Fragment!

Combining Sentences Coordinating 1.Use a comma & a coordinating conjunction The speaker rose to his feet, and the room became quiet. 2. Use a semicolon, an adverbial conjunction, and a comma – I worked hard; therefore, I expected results. 3. Use a semicolon I worked hard; I expected results Subordinating 1.

Clauses A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb SubjectVerb Youstink. Sallyis talking. SubjectVerb Ilovegrammar Sallyis talkingloudly wMost clauses have further information after the verb

Two Types of Clauses Independent clause (Main clause) – Can stand alone as a sentence – Can be joined to another clause – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. Dependent clause (Subordinate clause) – Cannot stand alone as a sentence – Must be joined to an independent clause – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. Independent clause (Main clause) – Can stand alone as a sentence – Can be joined to another clause – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. Dependent clause (Subordinate clause) – Cannot stand alone as a sentence – Must be joined to an independent clause – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. A word that joins clauses is a conjunction

Joining Clauses A dependent clause can be joined to an independent clause to make a sentence – Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder because he wanted to make his own firecrackers. Or – Because he wanted to make his own firecrackers, Fred filled a cardboard tube with gunpowder. When the sentence starts with the dependent clause, it must have a comma before the independent clause

Run-ons Run-ons are independent clauses that have been combined incorrectly. There are several types: – The AND run-on – The Fused run-on – The comma splice We will be going into detail on each one

The and run on (pg 146) two or more relatively long independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction without any punctuation. Goal 1 AND per sentence (some situations warrant 2) (Because this has no punctuation, we have to read it in one breath.) – I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA and we liked each other immediately and we soon became friends and we often hang out at each other’s houses.

The Fused run on two or more independent clauses run together without any punctuation. – The girls made the fire the boys cooked the steaks.

The comma splice run-on The comma splice: two or more independent clauses run together with only a comma. – I met Charlyce in a yoga class at the YWCA, we soon became friends. – Sounds right? It is actually two separate independent ideas/clauses. We COULD add a ; (semicolon) to make it correct, or we could separate into two sentences.

Review: Run ON Fragment= incomplete 2 or more independent clauses (whole sentences) combined incorrectly. – Too many ANDS (goal 1-2 “and”s per sentence) – Fused Jammed together with no punctuation – Comma Splice Jammed together with just a comma (need comma conjunction!!!)

Kevin bought me a coke, we went to the park together
