5. Sentence structures

6. Independent Clauses
An independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. An independent clause is a sentence:
Jim studied in the cafeteria for his chemistry quiz.

7. Dependent Clause
A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence. Often a dependent clause is marked by a dependent marker word.
When Jim studied in the cafeteria for his chemistry quiz (What happened when he studied? The thought is incomplete.)

8. Dependent Marker Word
A dependent marker word is a word added to the beginning of an independent clause that makes it into a dependent clause.
When Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz, it was very noisy.

9. Dependent Marker Word
Some common dependent markers are: after, although, as, as if, because, before, even if, even though, if, in order to, since, though, unless, until, whatever, when, whenever, whether, and while.

10. Coordinating Conjunctions
The seven coordinating conjunctions used as connecting words at the beginning of an independent clause are for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so (FANBOYS). When the second independent clause in a sentence begins with a coordinating conjunction, a comma is needed before the coordinating conjunction:
Jim studied in the cafeteria for his chemistry quiz, but it was hard to concentrate because of the noise.
