This page delves deeper into the concepts of sentence fragments and run-on sentences, providing more detailed explanations and examples.
Sentence fragments are incomplete sentences that lack either a subject or a full predicate. The page notes some exceptions, such as imperative sentences, which are commands or polite requests where the subject is implied.
Example: "Stop!" and "Please help your father." are valid imperative sentences, not fragments.
The document provides several examples of sentence fragments to help students identify these errors in their own writing:
Example: "I ran to the." and "Sam running into town." are sentence fragments.
It's emphasized that even long sentences can be fragments if they lack a complete thought.
Example: "After her father helped her so much last week and she improved with each passing game." is a long sentence fragment.
Run-on sentences are defined as two or more complete thoughts joined together without correct punctuation. The page introduces the concept of comma splices, a common type of run-on sentence where two independent clauses are incorrectly separated by just a comma.
Definition: A comma splice occurs when two complete thoughts are separated by a comma instead of using proper punctuation or conjunctions.
The document provides examples of run-on sentences and comma splices, along with their corrected versions:
Example: "I like hotdog, Becky likes hamburgers." Correction: "I like hot dogs and Becky likes hamburgers."
Example: "It is nearly past five, we cannot reach town before dark." Correction: "It is nearly past five; we cannot reach town before dark."
Highlight: Understanding how to identify and correct sentence fragments and run-on sentences is crucial for improving writing clarity and coherence.
This page focuses on practical applications of the concepts learned about clauses, sentence fragments, and run-on sentences. It emphasizes how understanding these grammatical structures can significantly enhance writing quality.
The document reiterates the importance of identifying subjects and verbs in clauses as a fundamental skill for improving sentence structure. It encourages students to practice recognizing independent and dependent clauses in their own writing and in the texts they read.
Highlight: Regular practice in identifying clause types can lead to more varied and sophisticated sentence structures in your writing.
The page likely includes exercises or prompts for students to apply their knowledge, such as:
Example: "While we held the door open. The cat ran inside." Correction: "While we held the door open, the cat ran inside."
The document may also provide strategies for combining clauses effectively to create more complex sentences:
Example: "I like reading. It improves my vocabulary." Improved: "I like reading because it improves my vocabulary."
Vocabulary: Subordinating conjunctions are used to join dependent clauses to independent clauses.
The page likely concludes by emphasizing how mastering these concepts can lead to more sophisticated and effective writing, encouraging students to apply these skills in their academic and personal writing endeavors.
Highlight: By understanding and correctly using dependent and independent clauses, you can create more varied, interesting, and grammatically correct sentences in your writing.
This page introduces the concept of clauses and their importance in sentence construction. It focuses on independent and dependent clauses, providing definitions and examples to illustrate their differences.
A clause is defined as a group of related words in a sentence that contains both a subject and a verb. This distinguishes it from a phrase, which lacks either a subject or a verb or both. The page emphasizes the importance of identifying subjects and verbs in clauses to determine sentence types and improve writing quality.
Definition: A clause is a group of related words in a sentence that always contains a subject and a verb.
Example: "The five monkeys at the zoo eat bananas." This is an example of an independent clause, also known as a main clause.
The document explains that independent clauses express a complete thought and can stand alone as a simple sentence. It provides the formula: SUBJECT + VERB = complete thought.
Example: "She was happy." and "He drew a snowflake." are examples of independent clauses.
In contrast, dependent clauses are introduced. While they also contain a subject and verb, they do not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone as sentences. Dependent clauses are typically indicated by marker words such as "while," "after," "before," etc.
Example: "While we held the door" is a dependent clause.
The page also touches on sentence fragments and run-on sentences, providing brief examples to illustrate these common writing errors.
Highlight: Understanding the difference between independent and dependent clauses is crucial for identifying and correcting sentence fragments and run-on sentences.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
