Simple-Complex-Compound Table

The document provides a table that compares simple, complex, and compound sentences. It lists conjunctions and clauses that transform a simple sentence into a complex or compound sentence. For example, using "though" turns a simple sentence into a complex one by adding a subordinate clause, and using "and" combines two simple sentences into a compound sentence. The table serves as a guide for understanding how verbs, clauses, and participles/gerunds are used to classify different sentence structures.
