Building complex sentences

A complex sentence contains a main idea and a dependent clause. Connecting ideas clearly helps show time, cause, condition or another relationship.

Build and edit

  1. Identify the main clause.
  2. Find the dependent clause and the idea it adds.
  3. Check that the clauses are connected logically.
  4. Read the complete sentence for meaning and punctuation.

Self-check: Ask what extra information the dependent clause contributes to the main idea.
