How to Write Long English Sentences (Part 3): Complex Sentences (Sentence Writing Class with Alisha)

This video is part 3 of 4 of the Sentence Structure series. The focus of this episode is the complex sentence. This video covers the definition of complex sentences, a review of independent and dependent clauses, and a ton of examples of the three types of dependent clauses (adverb clauses, relative clauses, and noun clauses). You'll also learn about subordinating conjunctions and how they're used in sentences. The aim of this lesson is to show how clauses can be combined in a variety of ways!
