Remember that a simple sentence has a subject, a predicate and is a complete thought.
An independent clause = simple sentence.
A dependent clause has a subject and predicate but is not a complete thought.
Complex sentences are made up of one or more dependent clauses and an independent clause.
Compound sentences are made up of two independent clauses that are joined together by a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon (;).
