Sentence Combining
Two approaches to putting sentences together:
COORDINATION
SUBORDINATION
1.
COORDINATION – prefix ‘co’ together
coworker, cooperate, combine, colearners, colleagues,
collaboration “co + labour”, coparent, coordinate, coordinator–
co- two things , same level
sentence – two clauses at the same level of
importance
compound sentence– coordinated clauses
, SOBA
, FANBOYS ; ; TRANS,
Like a seesaw, teeter-totter
2.
SUBORDINATION- ‘sub’ under
submarine, subway, substitute,
subcontract(or)
GOOD LUNCH: Vietnamese submarine sandwiches – Banh Mi Saigon,
North - South
5397 Victoria Drive- have one for homework
5397 -16 = 53-16= 37
37th Ave
6010 Fraser 60
-16 44th Ave
1300 Commercial
-16 -3 Three blocks north of
First Avenue
Each major block is .5 mile (.8km) apart
Each major East/West Avenue is a square
1 squared = 1 Ave
2 squared= 4th Ave
3 squared= Broadway (9thAve)
4 squared= 16th Ave
5 squared= King Edward Ave (25th Ave)
subconscious, subtract, substitute, submission, submissive,
subcontract
one thing more important than the other
sentence – two clauses not at the same level of importance
complex- adverb clauses, noun clauses, adjective clauses
e.g. Mae likes dogs because they are loyal. main
clause subordinate clause
main clause -more important information
subordinate clause / dependent clause- less important
information
-
adjective clause
-
adverb clause
-
noun clause
If a teacher is talking about coordinating and subordinating
clauses, they mean compound and complex sentences.
e.g writing workshop for sentence writing, UBC for
first-year students
Dogs are loyal, so I like them. COMPOUND- coordination
I like dogs because they are loyal. COMPLEX-subordination
This is my visualization of sentences:
1.
_____ SIMPLE
2.
___ ___ COMPOUND
3.
___
___ COMPLEX
Like Tetris blocks
* It’s all about main and subordinate clauses
We want a good mix of those types.
-looking under the hood of a car
-looking behind the curtain at Cirque de Soleil
-looking in the kitchen of a restaurant
-watch a magician in slow motion
How it’s done! How it’s made!
Tetris – video game with blocks
-different shapes
-all the pieces fit together
Russian Blocks
- nice mix of sentence styles in our writing
-mix of SIMPLE, COMPOUND and COMPLEX sentences
We should aim for a nice mix of simple, compound and complex
sentences. We should aim for a mix of short, medium, and long sentences.
SIDE NOTE
In my editing business for university students, I write a
mix of SIMPLE, COMPOUND and COMPLEX sentences, with a few fancy details.
Therefore, if you can master SIMPLE, COMPOUND and COMPLEX
sentences, you’ll be set for any class, college, university, job, etc.
These are some
of your examples from homework.
