Hello,
My question is about simple sentence, so a simple Sentence is:
One independent clause that expresses a complete thought, and has one subject and one verb.
The teacher walked into the classroom, greeted the students, and took attendance.
Here we've more than one verb: walk-greet-take, but it's still considered as a simple sentence
Another example: She is intelligent, they made her very famous.=simple sentence
Whereas:
''Adam wanted to play football, but he didn't make the team''. is a compound sentence
Would you please tell me why they consider these senteces as simle ones?
Thank you
