4 sentences correctly typed + labels = 4; 3 correctly typed = 3; 2 = 2; <2 = 1
Hints
- Compound-complex requires both 2 ICs joined AND at least 1 DC.
- Use 'because/although/when/since' for subordination.
Misconceptions to watch
- Writes 'compound-complex' but it's just complex (missing the 2nd IC).
- Comma splice in compound.
